  1. October 12-Chrome Dome: For today's chrome dome concept, I decided to use Ohio State hockey and give them a silver chrome helmet (think LA Kings) that also has chrome stripes and chrome Buckeye stickers. I put it with a blackout uniform, thinking that it could be worn the next time they play in a Faceoff on the Lake.
  2. October 11-Defunct Team: I love the logo set and colors of the now-defunct Quad City Mallards, so they are the subjects of today's prompt! No real deep meaning behind anything here, just tried to build a nice set of uniforms for them.
  3. October 10-Diagonal Word Mark-The Minnesota Wild get an alternate red jersey featuring a diagonal word mark based on their alternate M logo. I worked on this one for a long time and wasn't sure I would be able to get it right, but I like where it ended up.
  4. Didn't create designs for this past weekend, but I do have my concepts for October 6 and October 9! October 6: ECHL Team-This design is a city edition concept for the Indy Fuel, my local team. It features the city flag of Indianapolis on the sleeves, and is in the flag colors as well. October 9: Reverse Retro-Double dipping in the ECHL here as I go back to 1985 for the team I grew up watching and rooting for. The Komets used blue and orange as their colors when they used these jerseys, which were recreated for the 2021 Bob Chase Memorial game honoring his 63-year career as the Komets radio/TV broadcaster. I updated the uniforms to the Komets current colors, and flipped the orange and black to help the "reverse" aspect of the sweater.
  5. Thank you, the CBJ sweater is for sure my favorite of the group so far. Luckily I've got my next one ready to go! As I was looking at the Canadian teams for the heritage Classic, the Senators popped out at me. So I made a fauxback logo for them to go with the fauxback sweaters.
  6. Here's the design for day 4! Since Columbus has never played in a Winter Classic, they felt like the perfect team to create for. The design is heavily inspired by one of the best state flags out there, featuring the flag itself on the chest logo. The flag stripes are applied on the jersey as well, and the sleeve logo is inspired by the circle on the flag.
  7. Here are the next two days of designs! October 2-"City edition": This city edition for the Caps prominently features the Washington, D.C. flag. The arms have the Washington monument leading to the player number, and my favorite of the Caps' logos is featured on the shoulder. October 3-AHL Team: I like the colors and logo of the Colorado Eagles, so I made a tweak to their logo by removing black, and then featuring the multi-color stripes on the uniforms. Excited for the next few days, and to share those designs with you all!
  8. This October, Jerseynerds (@TheJerseyNerds) are running "Conceptober". They're providing one prompt for each day of the whole month, with hockey uniforms in mind for the prompts. I'm not a big hockey designer, so I wanted to participate in as many prompts as time allows this month and sharpen my hockey skills. First day was an "Earned edition" so I focused on the Kraken, giving them a sweater that features more red along with their blues. C&C always welcome! I'll post the next two days shortly!
  9. I was watching Colorado this weekend and thought about how much potential they have with their uniforms and colors, but they're pretty plain right now. I'm sure Deion will have them updated soon enough, but in the meantime I wanted to put together a concept idea I had. I made one tweak to their colors, going for a slightly richer gold than what they use currently. I also used a number font that more closely matches the "CU" in their logo. And in order to get their logo on the uniform, I put the Nike logo on the collar where it was when Oregon first switched to the F.U.S.E. template, which is the template these uniforms are built on. Couple of notes on the uniforms: Stripes-Puts a spin on a traditional stripe pattern they've worn before (think Northwestern stripe) and made it into a modern mountain look. Also features a mountain shape on the pants and helmet that looks "snowcapped". Gray Uniforms-Also inspired by the mountains, the helmet features a gray/black gradient pattern to create some depth and pattern without being too busy. Alternates-The three uniforms at the bottom are what I would envision as their primary alternates. Obviously there are a lot of mix and match combos available, but the three at the bottom would in theory be their most-worn. Let me know what you think!
  10. We have a bracket, which means I can now start focusing on the top Nike teams and giving them the special Jumpman treatment. I was originally going to keep this project limited to top-4 seeds that are Nike schools, but I decided to just do whichever school I feel like. Next up is the one school that will not be a jumpman uniform, the Duke Blue Devils. For Duke, I created a wordmark and number set that mimics their D logo with sharp angles and rounded edges. The stripes down the side are inspired by Cameron Indoor Stadium. The arch shape comes from the doors into the building, and there's a brick texture in the stripe that reflects the brick architecture of their arena. The jersey color is simply a unique dark blue to give them a two-tone look.
  11. We sleep in April. With March Madness just around the corner and conference tournaments in full swing, I decided to revive a series I started 6 years ago. On the heels of Adidas creating March Madness jerseys for some of their top schools, I started doing the same but by Nike. If you're interested in some of the original designs you can find that thread here. This time around, Jordan is the brand for all of these jerseys (except one, which we'll get to later) and each jersey is a new design never worn by the team. We're getting this series started with Houston, so let's get into it. For the Cougars, their jersey takes on a space theme, which I know is common with Houston teams. Their script Cougar mark gets a shooting star underline, and the side stripe is a rocket taking off into the sky and also mimics the striping on their throwback uniforms. There's also some space elements on the short under the rocket blast. The name and number on the back represent an astronaut's uniform, and that rounds out our first Jumpman March Madness jersey! Not exactly sure how many teams I'll end up doing, but I have a few logged away and ready to go over the next few weeks. Let me know what you think of our first squad!
