Glad they're getting rid of the Crying Ursine. That logo looks like he's yawning tears. 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.

Not a dumb question. Yes, Cal is the first school in the California system, being founded in 1868.

When the private College of California in Oakland, and a new state land-grant institution, the Agricultural, Mining and Mechanical Arts College established the "College of California" in 1868, its first location was in Oakland. Berkeley campus was established in 1873. The University of California system was established in 1919 with starting a Los Angeles campus aka UCLA. They didn't split in terms of leadership and administration until 1952. They are both seen as flagships. And, it's UC Berkeley (for the university) or Cal (for athletics). Not "Cal Berkeley", as noted by another poster showing the disclaimer. http://www.berkeley.edu/about/history-discoveries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandMooreArt Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 whats funny is the Nike rebrand happened, what 5 years ago? and that now-old type and logo already looks really dated. the new Cal marks and type like someone said before, feel like they could have been done in the 60's yet are so beautifully crafted and precise in their linework, weight, proportion. . theres no flaw that catches my eye- i could nitpick and say the C on the new alt logo might be a bit heavy for my taste, but i dont think Cal will have to ever change these marks again. Nike has done some really good work over the last 2.5 years, but UA might be the ones to watch now.

For $230M, UA has to be doing something that the majority will love. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

Nike has done some really good work over the last 2.5 years, but UA might be the ones to watch now. While historically accurate, another reason that the weight of the C makes sense in the secondary logo's context is that The C had to have a substantial weight to offset the weight of the bear... I couldn't imagine the C getting too much thinner than how it currently is without looking a little less sturdy. At the very least, there is a standardized C, because in doing the research, there were instances amongst different sports where the block C was much heavier than others, and altogether inconsistent in its structuring. The Sather font carries some of the key characteristics from this iteration of the block c, but is weighted so that works in numerous contexts. If you notice on campus, there is currently a lot of equity in the Block C, as you can see it on Tightwad Hill and also the bleachers in Memorial Stadium... I get producing brand assets for merchandising purposes, but, and no disrespect, what was produced really got away from what the brand is all about when you consider it holistically.

Really doubt UCLA does anything too drastic from their current set since their uniforms and marks haven't changed all that much in the past 20-30 years. About the only things we should look forward to are how the shoulder loops and numbers look on UA's template. They'll likely be a vast improvement over Adidas' uniforms.

Sure football and hoops have classic uniforms in general but they are in dire need of refinement...across the board you have navy, multiple shades of light blue, royal, tan, metallic gold, yellow using a hodgepodge of unrelated logos and marks...templates are an issue for sure but they have a lot of work to do.

upperV03 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Apparently the Wolverines will wear an alternate uniform at least once during the 2017 season. An all-maize uniform seems likely IMO, but there are multiple options that I could realistically see them going with. And I wouldn't be surprised to see the so-called "Michigan pattern" that Nike created implemented into the uniform in some subtle way, possibly in the numbers or sleeve caps. http://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/college/university-michigan/2017/06/02/michigan-will-wear-alternate-uniform-next-season/102449788/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rixaroo Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 I wish the Michigan alt would simply be maize pants on the road. Miss that combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pianoknight Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Michigan's all whites on the road just look stupid. Screw whatever sense of nostalgia Harbaugh is trying to recreate based on his playing days, the maize pants are VASTLY superior. 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.

oldschoolvikings Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 To each his own, I guess. I love this look; Although Adidas did it better. (Strange thing to say, I know, but in this one isolated case, it's definitely true. The sleeve stripe was better defined in the Adidas version, and the numbers down on the sleeve was a superior look for this particular design.) http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The maize pants area far superior to the white pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fouhy12 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I like both the white and maize pants. I think they should wear white pants for the first two road games and maize for the rest of the season after that. fouhy12's NFL Concepts 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
