This time next year, your Memphis Grizzlies gear will officially become collectors' items.

That's because the Grizzlies are changing their logo, team colors and uniforms to coincide with the 2004-05 season and a new downtown arena.

Team officials will unveil the new look in 2004, about three months before FedExForum opens in September that year.

"The right time for an identity change would be the first year in the new arena," said Mike Golub, Griz senior vice president of business operations. "We officially applied and submitted initial designs. Right now, we're going through revisions."
