The Indiana Pacers will have a different look in their quest for an NBA title.

Pinstripes are out. A cleaner, sleeker look is in.

"I really didn't like the pinstripes," said Jermaine O'Neal, who modeled the home and away uniforms Thursday with teammate Stephen Jackson. "I think it's a transition period for it. Obviously Reggie (Miller) is not here anymore, so it's a new-look team. I think getting new uniforms to go with that is perfect."

Settling on the new gear, the 11th in franchise history and first change since 1997, took two years. Reebok designed six uniforms. Pacers officials narrowed the list to two before deciding.

"It wasn't an easy process," Pacers president Larry Bird said. "The players had some say, but not the final say. But you try to get their input because they are the ones that have to wear the uniforms. It's a sleek look."

The Pacers hope the new uniforms will help boost sales. The Pacers didn't finish in the top 10 in team or top 25 in individual jersey sales last season.

"You can never tell how your sales are going to be," Pacers CEO Donnie Walsh said. "It can be all over the map."
