PrimalCookie Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 So no more black? Huuuuuge upgrade if you ask me, although the logoset is still terrible this at least makes it more acceptable. Unpopular opinion, the one thing that I actually liked about the previous set was the "pool noodles", and then they just had to get rid of them.

Supercoollimp Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 not going to lie as much as i thought theyd mess it up i really like these. love the number font and not having the arm hole trim makes them look way cleaner. the only thing im not sure about is the outline inside the word mark instead of it being solid.

DJT Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Such a big upgrade. Probably the biggest upgrade of a team so far. Not saying these are the best jerseys, but their last ones were so so so awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Noire Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Hey my team looks good again! So happy. Digging the two color stripes, and the horizontal line panels kinda evoke a sail. Kinda. I'm mad they teased the flags so hard, but only have them above the jock tag. What a waste. Overall the Clippers look really good, but the full logo is still trash. The LAC ball logo was all I could hold onto, but now the uniforms don't suck either. Good day for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamdaviinci Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 58 minutes ago, Digby said: But I will say that on these new ones the weird white line inside the Clippers wordmark really sticks out. Is it trying to create a drop shadow effect or what? Looks like an Illustrator error. That's my biggest complaint with this set -- the inline on the wordmark's typeface just doesn't look right. I don't like the butt stripe, but I don't mind it so much either. The subtle side panels are a nice touch, the color palette sans black really pops and also reminds me less of EA Sports, and the Icon Edition looks especially sharp.

Lights Out Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 They're not bad, but I wish the city name was on the road jersey. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinsUp1214 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Now that I see it for real on a player, this is definitely a massive upgrade. The wordmark is still a terrible mess, but I'm really digging everything else. And obviously it's great that the black is gone, but I'm even more thrilled that neither set has that clunky "LAC" logo on the chest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltarich87 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Well I'm gonna do an about face here. Definitely an improvement....only gripe really is I wish the blue unis said Los Angeles. Clippers wordmark still stinks but hey, baby steps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Noire Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 They reduced the Los Angeles moniker when they rebranded to stand out from the Lakers. They are the LA Clippers now. Clunky as hell, but they aren't putting Los Angeles on anything probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnWis97 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 This is perhaps the biggest combination of "huge upgrade" and "mediocre uniform" of all time.

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I think these are really clean. The blue on the away uniform pops. Overall the look reminds me of Kansas, and I've always liked KU's look for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burmy Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 MUCH better...and so the old ones are consigned to the "What were they thinking?" dustbin of history, where they belong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardsblues02 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I like these a lot. Much better, huge improvement. Would have liked to see some light blue trim, but maybe a alternate uni with the light blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germanshepherd Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 That's about as good of a uniform set you can hope to get with that logo set. i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall the look reminds me of Kansas, and I've always liked KU's look for the most part. They're almost too clean, particularly the blue jersey. Needs more red front and center. I don't really like the different colored stripes on each side of the shorts, but theClippers are at least back to their previous color scheme.

Which is amusing since the Lakers don't put "Los Angeles" on any regular jerseys either, and me associating those words on a jersey goes back to Clippers jerseys in the script era Fan Style ShirtsShowcasing fan-made sports apparel by artists and designers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadmanLA Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 A big improvement for sure...NASCAR Gillian kinda redeemed herself on this one. Still not a fan of the wordmark, but overall it's a nice and clean look. Now, just get rid of this "LA Clippers" branding nonsense... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
