  1. If i'd missed the Jazz launch of these jerseys, there's no way I look at that black jersey and think it's the Jazz from the NBA, even with UTAH across the front. It doesn't look bad as such, it just looks like a high school or modern style college jersey. It's brand abandonment.
  2. They are going to look horrible on court, like a rec league team. The up close application on the numbers is good, but you won't see that during a broadcast, just a big lump of claret. Even a contrasting waistband would have made such a difference.
  3. This is unbelievably bad for an NFL team worth $4billion. Outrageous. Anyone amateur with a Cricut could do a better job than leaving those burgundy 'gaps' in there. I think the Commanders name is fine, but the rest of this rebrand is almost unbelievably amateurish. Lots of bad ideas executed awfully.
  4. I like the Commanders name, and I can deal with the home set. Ideally it'll be worn with white pants fairly regularly. It's still got some dumb components but I think it'll look fine in-game. Helmets are really nice. The away and alternate are absolutely horrendous though. Garbage. Completely without a redeeming feature. The Bucs alarm clocks were several levels above either of these uniforms.
  5. The big problem with the Norwich logo is the removal of the black. Those shades of yellow and green don't contrast enough and the whole thing looks a bit washed out. I'm generally very supportive of football clubs upgrading their historic logos with what are effectively modern redraws, but they either needed to retain the black outline or deepen the green to get adequate contrast. The launch display with the hanging flag sort of texture over it just amplifies this lack of contrast issue.
  6. How new is the silver Nike tick on the Spurs white unis? I hadn't noticed it before today and I don't remember an announcement. I like the change, brings more silver into the white unis and makes the Nike tick less prominent.
  7. The uniforms and wordmark are garbage but I like the slashing bear logo, and overall the logo package is pretty good.
  8. I like the current brighter shade of yellow on the Lakers uniforms. The gold was nice but the yellow provides a really nice bright contrast and I love the look, they're my favourite Lakers uniforms. Clean, bright, well balanced, good contrast.
  9. Stealing a sports logo from Fraser Davidson is like singing a Beatles song and claiming you wrote it.
  10. The ducks should return to the mighty ducks look as the basis for everything they do This is so much better than anything they've done post 2006. Ditch the new stuff, go back to classic ducks.
  11. Yeah I totally agree. I really like the new logo, and I hated the old one. Overall it's a beautiful, clean and simple look. It's just a shame they couldn't have varied the striping patterns a little to avoid the obvious comparisons to Toronto and Detroit.
  12. If the Bucs had changed the number font to something more acceptable, it would have been a pretty popular update. People have invented all sorts of other things that they feel are wrong with the uniforms to justify the hate, but really, they are a terrific update bar the numbers. Even with the numbers they don't deserve the sort of treatment they get on here.
  13. Hockey jerseys are just exorbitantly expensive. I live in Australia so add an extra $40-$50 in shipping on to any jersey and i'll be lucky if I get change from $250 for a premier jersey. It's impossible to justify that living with a mortgage. Basketball and occasionally football are easier because some stores here sell jerseys so you don't have to worry about shipping, and you're looking at around the $100 mark. A perfectly reasonable cost for an official jersey by any standards. I refuse to go counterfeit, even if I know the quality is decent, but it leaves me in a situation where i'll probably never own a hockey jersey unless I get really lucky on eBay. I have several friends who have gone the knock-off route and are quite happy with their decision and otherwise wouldn't have bought the jersey they wanted.
  14. I don't really have anything for you to do, but this is one of the better threads i've seen on these boards. Brilliant work, Ren.
  15. What's weird about that is that IMO Hockey uniforms are by far the most interesting of the four major sports. I struggle to get excited about basketball or baseball uniforms, although I can appreciate a good one.
  16. It's definitely an upgrade over their old-school lion design but you're right, the head could have been done better. This would be about the most unpopular opinion you could post on the bigfooty footy jumpers and graphic design board. I don't mind the new logo as such but there was so much love for that design because a) it still looked like it could represent fitzroy and They won three premierships in it 5 years before it was changed. It was one of the more popular designs in the AFL.
