Yet another team with a strong identity. Not too much to change, I decided to use orange for the cap logo and socks. I also decided to use the tiger head as sleeve patch. The home uniform remains the same, adding orange to the Olde D, and the road uniform remains the same (apart from the changes aforementioned). I also decided to design a home and road alt uniform, usign the "Tigers" and "Detroit" wordmarks respectively. Thanks to @Paul Lucas, who helped me out with the "Tigers" wordmark! NOTE: I decided to use #16 as humble tribute to José Fernández, who sadly passed away yesterday. I'll be using the same number for the Marlins set, keeping the #42 for the other teams.

coco1997 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Beautiful work on the Tigers. The tiger head would make a great sleeve patch. Not much I'd change, other than the white outline on "Detroit" on the road jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, getting rid of that white outline on the road is a must...and I would also get rid of the white outline on the caps (except for the home alternate), that way the orange would pop like on the stirrups.

Paul Lucas Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 What if you used these stirrupsat home with the cap you currently have up? And then remove the white outline on the road wordmark and caps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victormrey Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 Thanks for the suggestions! I'll be working on them. Meanwhile, how about something like this for the Rockies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victormrey Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 So, these are my ideas for the Rockies: And the cap (I can't decide which one I should use): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Lucas Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I like the nod to the Colorado Rockies hockey team. Are you adding any silver? If so, let's see the cap with a silver 'c.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, let's see the cap with a silver 'c.' I wanted to keep it simple, using Purple, Black and White. I've tried Siver, but I doesn't really match my original idea: It's not the cap design, but you get the idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Lucas Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I kinda like it. Of the three (purple, silver, and black), I'd be most willing to part with black. WOW!!! The Tigers are perfect!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coco1997 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Tigers are much improved. To be honest, I'm not a fan of any of those logos for the cap. What if you gave the cap a white front panel and put the first logo you posted on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coco1997 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I also like the lighter shade of purple you chose. It creates a nice contrast with the black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've played around with versions of the Colorado "C" for a Rockies logo, but can never get it quite differentiated enough from the Cubs' C. They're virtually the same shape. It's a concept I really wish would work, but I think the Cubs pretty much have a monopoly on that shape, and it's just too hard to separate them apart.

I think the fact that the logo has a basis in the original NHL team makes it work. Plus, there are only so many ways to configure a "C" and make it look good. And for what it's worth, the Cubs once used a "C" logo that looked nearly identical to the Reds' current "C" logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'll stick to the new C. It's true that the design is kind of similar to the Cubs' C. but given the colours, the border, and the iner circle, I think they aren't that close.

coco1997 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Those look good! Personally I prefer the "C" with the baseball in the middle, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
