====City Edition: "The Valley"==== The 2020β21 Nike NBA Suns City Edition artwork makes tribute to the Phoenix valley region. The uniform features a black base, and pixelated mountain view sunset with an inspired rainbow of yellow, orange, red and purple. The image is based on Camelback Mountain located in North Phoenix. Camelback Mountain is a geographical identifier of The Valley, which has been the nickname of the Phoenix valley for decades. The front of the uniform reads "The Valley" in custom script lettering across a sunset themed rainbow over Camelback Mountain.<ref>{{cite news|title=Suns honor 'The Valley' with City Edition uniform|url=https://www.nba.com/news/suns-honor-the-valley-with-city-edition-uniform|publisher=NBA Media Ventures, LLC|website=NBA.com|date=November 13, 2020|access-date=November 21, 2020|archive-date=November 21, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201121034501/https://www.nba.com/news/suns-honor-the-valley-with-city-edition-uniform|url-status=live}}</ref> Even though the NBA commemorated the league's 75th anniversary by having teams release mashup designs of previous uniforms for the 2021β22 "City" edition, the Suns elected to keep their "The Valley" uniforms for another season.<ref>{{citation|title=Suns will forego 75th Anniversary uniforms, keep City Edition in 2021-22|url=https://www.brightsideofthesun.com/2021/8/5/22610394/suns-will-forego-75th-anniversary-uniforms-keep-city-edition-in-2021-22|publisher=SB Nation|date=August 5, 2021|access-date=November 6, 2021|archive-date=November 6, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211106130730/https://www.brightsideofthesun.com/2021/8/5/22610394/suns-will-forego-75th-anniversary-uniforms-keep-city-edition-in-2021-22|url-status=live}}</ref> A Spanish-language edition ("El Valle") served as the "City" uniform in the 2023β24 season.
