We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

These look nice and swatch nicely, but I cannot buy anything that represents another team! I’m a big sports fan, and a NYer, so there’s no way I’m buying any of these. CP did a nice job of getting team colors, so why not do an orange and/or blue for the Knicks?

I had a fun time reading the toasty comments about these on instagram. I do enjoy some of the more unique color stories, but I think my money is safe. I am disturbed by that the Golden State Warrior nine pan pallette has 3 shades of matte tan in it.

Okay, so I find this particular collection to be a very weird one. I’m into sports, but for me, it’s baseball and football. And even then, I just don’t quite understand this rather bizarre concoction!
(BUT; if they ever do pro football or baseball, and let’s just say it’s the NY Giants or Yankees, who knows? I might just jump that shark!! 🤣)

I like basketball and am a Knicks fan, but I agree with you in that i love baseball and football (and hockey, too). And all three of those teams for me (Yankees, Giants, Rangers) would have similar color stories: blue, red, white and possibly grey.

There’s an episode of Family Guy where Stewie (as Zack Sawyer) is sitting in a club and they bring out a sponsored soda and he says “Peach Coke? Stop.”

That is me every time CP releases something now and somehow each release is even worse than the one before. Can they go lower than this?

So many themed collections get dragged, because the shades do not represent their inspirations. These seem far closer to the colorways of the teams than many of the throwback-to-preteen nostalgia palettes do for their characters. The Celtics palette swatches pretty well, but my green stash is pretty bloated, esp by SG. Overall the shadow swatches are pretty good, but the liners not so much. Glad to see some new liner shades, though. Hope some will be available individually.

I’m not a sports fan, and as I’m in Europe I don’t follow NBA, or NFL, or NHL. (I hope I got those right. I know I forgot probably forgot some N?L, sorry.)
Anyway, there are some nice shades among the lot of the palettes, but not enough in one palette to tempt me.
I think fans will like this release so I hope they perform well, maybe better than the team. 😉

I’m a big basketball fan, and even though I’m disappointed my team is not included (Go Pistons!) I might end up buying a palette. I really like the shades in the GSW one!
