Oldschoolvikings' NHL concepts - Ducks added, trying out more weird colors

[oldschoolvikings]

Yeah, it's hard to miss.

 

But how do you use red, gray, and black and avoid it?

The Barons look pretty good! I like the Ohio State-style stripes, and the top hat is a good touch. My only complaint would be the grey socks on the home uniform and the number font (which doesn’t mesh well with the Old English lettering). Good work.

I keep trying to pull off the contrasting socks bit.  I always liked it when it was a strange quirk that only the Boston Bruins ran with.

Bringing back a touch of green...

 

[Djruggs]

Ehhhhh, most of us that want green back want it instead of the black, not with it

Here's the jersey of the old WHL team, the Cincinnati Stingers;

 

And my updated take;

I absolutely can’t stand black and brown mixed. I coach a high school team that has had black and yellow uniforms with brown logos for 3 years now and I finally get to make everything just brown and yellow next week. I think this would be much better without the brown. Either find another color to add or just leave it black, yellows and white.

Bossy.

Weird how I said “I think“ and gave a suggestion and now you’re just being an ass as usual. Hopefully the next team in this is navy and black because those go great together as well.

Here I’ll put it in proper terms since you don’t take advice. Your Cincinnati Stingers suck. One of the rules of fashion is not mixing brown and black, and the colors would bleed together a lot more in real life than on the concepts. It’s a really poor design choice.

For someone named "brown" you're very hard on the color.

[heavybass]

I was gonna say that 'Brown' was being rude.

Man who would have though a color combo would habe people so triggered lol.

 

Black and brown can work together, but I dont think they should ever touch. So the home set is basically fine, but the away set should have the sleeves fixed. They should be Bn, Y, BK, Y and same for the socks. On the Alt I would just remove the top most black stripe from the sleeves, socks and chest stripes and make the logo all black.

Well the top team is the University of Manitoba who plays my university in an exhibition game every year to start the season and they used black and brown for a few years. It looked awful. They have now switched to just brown, gold, and white.  The bottom is the high school I coach for which school colors are brown, athletic gold, and white. 5 years ago they got these uniforms which are black, gold, and white with brown logos and shoulder logos. I’ve had to deal with these for 4 years before the school would let me fix it.     We will now have no black anywhere anymore. You wouldn’t wear brown dress shoes with black slacks, at least I hope not, and I don’t think it translate well to a uniform as well.

The hilarious part is the article linked to the picture you posted is saying how he shouldn’t have worn them together. ??

 

Those jerseys suck, especially the third, in my opinion. So let’s just leave it at that. 

[oldschoolvikings]

So, I seem to be running into some ridiculous prejudice against the color scheme Brown and Black... apparently ignoring nature's greatest design, the Beagle; 

 

 

 

I give you this expansion team, the Beagles... (I await my check from the NHL);

 

[GDLions]

These look nice because the brown and black almost never touch haha

[heavybass]

Call them the Killer Beagles and you will be guaranteed money well spent... and love from Beagles.
