  1. I love how you've been able to portray what made these parks iconic.

    My favourite so far, hands down, is the Astros' Astrodome, specially with the numbers and sleeve patch. Top notch work!

    As for Forbes Field, the combination of inspirations blends perfectly 💯 What about adding a squared sleeve patch based on the Longines clock?

  2. I feel the recent uniform tweaks and identity changes have been nice but far from perfect. This is a nice example of it, and how the teams have had some missed opportunities.

    I think the star on the wordmarks is such a simple change with a huge impact, specially in a contrasting colour 👌🏻 The updated City Edition uni looks amazing, and the script perfect fits the theme.

     

    Great job!

  3. After listening to Todd Radom's "Phantom Franchise" section of the ESPN Baseball Tonight podcast from May 4th, I tried to depict how the New York Reds' uniform set would look like nowadays.

     

    For the main home and road designs I decided to keep the pinstripes + sleeveless jerseys combo, possibly the Reds' most iconic look, using black pins for the road uni:

    While both alts feature regular jerseys with placket and sleeve piping:

    I decided to keep Mets' monogram and current road wordmark, since I think they create a cohesive look with the Reds' style. As for the sleeve patch, I edited the 1999-06 Mr. Redlegs logo version to match the home uniform.

    Regarding the numbers, I went for a font which looks similar to Mets road wordmark.

     

    Huge thanks to @coco1997, @Carolingian Steamroller, and @Paul Lucas for helping me out throught the whole creative process!

     

    As usual, feedback is more than welcome!

    Very cool! The cap logo/sleeve patch in inspired and feels like something Nike would actually do for the Mariners. Great job! 

     

    Thank you!

    Cap looks pretty good, and the pants work well. Number could be a bit bigger, I think. Could we see that sleeve patch with a purple outline? Looks kinda odd without one.

     

    Since the compass and the seal already have purple, and the original patch doesn't have any extra border, I decided to add a volt one for the cap, in order to make the logo pop:

    Should I make it purple?

    Love it! The Jimi Hendrix influence is inspired. I'm curious what a cap design would look like to go with the jersey.

    Like @coco1997 says, I'm wondering about the cap logo, and also the pants. I definitely couldn't get on board with matching neon yellow pants (this combo is so much better than that), so they'd either have to be white or purple... Idk.

    I really dig it. Unique and showcases something dear to the city, which is what the connect jersey should be all about. Love the type treatment. I think it'd look great with some white pants

     

    Thank you guys!

     

    Here's the full-uniform design:

    I've gone for white pants with matching purple piping, since I think creates a nice balance with the lime/volt jersey. I've also used @Paul Lucas' idea of combining the city seal with the compass logo to improve the sleeve pacth and to create the cap logo.

  6. With Nike having recently released the Royals' City Connect uniform, there are now 10 MLB teams with designs under this special range.

    However, Nike seem to be taking their time with the releases, and the Mariners are still not in the horizon. Therefore, I decided make a concept design for the M's:

    As you can see, the design is clearly inspired by the Psychedelic Rock poster style from the 60's. This take might not be new, since last season the Sounders released an away kit also inspired by Jimi Hendrix, but I think it's such an unique theme which could set the design apart from the other teams'.

    I combined the psychedelic style with the city nickname: "Emerald City". Since that name comes from the nature which surrounds Seattle, I went for lime green and volt yellow, which are inspired by the look of Seattle outskirts in Autumn, when leaves turn from green into yellow, under the aforementioned approach.

    To complete the jersey, I also added the city seal as sleeve patch, and "EC" as jocktag.

     

    Here's a simple moodboard which sums up the inspirations behind the design:

    Props to @AusGiant, whose SVG version of Nike's MLB base I used to create a Paint template.

     

    I hope you all like it! Feedback is more than welcome.

  7. Great tweaks for the Marlins! Now the cap logo is clearly visible, and the pink colour pops more than the current red-ish shade. Solid job for the Cooperstown Collection design as well!
