Editing Philadelphia 76ers (section)

===1978–1997===
In 1977, the Sixers logo was tweaked to include a white basketball with blue outlines and the suffix "-ers" in blue, completing the team nickname. The following season saw the team go back to basics with their uniforms.

Starting with the 1978–79 season, the Sixers wore a cleaner uniform design reminiscent of their late 1960s outfits. Side stripes were eliminated and the team logo was emblazoned on the right leg. The road uniform color was changed back to red (with the lettering scheme similar to the 1968–70 red uniforms), and the numbers revert to a block letter style.<ref name=SixersUniforms/><ref>{{citation|title=Sixers History: Uniform Retrospective - A Stately Greatness: Andrew Toney and the Simply Red Jerseys|url=https://www.nba.com/sixers/history/sixers-history-uniform-retrospective-stately-greatness-andrew-toney-and-simply-red-jerseys|publisher=NBA Media Ventures, LLC|website=NBA.com|date=November 23, 2018|access-date=January 30, 2021|archive-date=February 4, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210204150934/https://www.nba.com/sixers/history/sixers-history-uniform-retrospective-stately-greatness-andrew-toney-and-simply-red-jerseys|url-status=live}}</ref>

Before the 1991–92 season, the Sixers experimented with a more radical uniform design. The front featured a blue wave with red, white and blue stars, and "Sixers" in [[Helvetica]] was affixed above the blue wave. The full city name "Philadelphia" was also added above the team name. The numbers contained drop shadows.<ref name=SixersUniforms/><ref>{{citation|title=Sixers History: Uniform Retrospective - A Swoosh Goes on Forever|url=https://www.nba.com/sixers/history/sixers-history-uniform-retrospective-swoosh-goes-forever|publisher=NBA Media Ventures, LLC|website=NBA.com|date=November 8, 2018|access-date=January 30, 2021|archive-date=February 6, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210206083840/https://www.nba.com/sixers/history/sixers-history-uniform-retrospective-swoosh-goes-forever|url-status=live}}</ref>

After wearing the graphic-laden design for three seasons, the Sixers changed to a more basic look entering the 1994–95 season. The design contained thick blue stripes within either thin red or white stripes, and the letters were changed to a more classic rounded style. Numbers were now rendered in blue on both uniforms with either white or red trim, and the white uniform again featured "Sixers" in red letters with white and blue trim.<ref name=SixersUniforms/><ref>{{citation|title=Sixers History: Uniform Retrospective - Back to the Basics|url=https://www.nba.com/sixers/history/sixers-history-uniform-retrospective-back-basics|publisher=NBA Media Ventures, LLC|website=NBA.com|date=November 30, 2018|access-date=January 30, 2021|archive-date=November 8, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201108110609/https://www.nba.com/sixers/history/sixers-history-uniform-retrospective-back-basics|url-status=live}}</ref>
