jaha32 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 The colors look a bit muddled on the face now that they got rid of the lightest shade of blue. They could’ve kept the three shades of blue on the logo and just used a simplified palette of two shades on jerseys, etc... I am a fan of the bear claws forming and M.

Lights Out Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 They should have at least switched back to brown, teal and red. I don't really see how grey improves their current color scheme. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Noire Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I still miss the teal, red, black, and brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KittSmith_95 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Yeah, the addition of grey really muddles the look. It's like they wanna take over both the Pacers & Nuggets prior identities while still being the Grizzlies in a sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do kind of like them to have a bit of an Ancient Egypt (as filtered through a sports team) vibe. This new tweak just looks muddy on the primary. The alternate is decent enough, while the new font is an upgrade. It’s still uninspired, and doesn’t bring much to a somewhat overused color scheme/very average logo set.

I'm not sure if I like connecting the Grizzlies with the Memphis of ancient Egypt when there's so much you can do with the actual Memphis right there. Though I think I would like it if it meant the Memphis Grizzlies all became hoteps. Did you know James Naismith was actually black?

I hope this whole gray fad a lot of the league is going through right now dies off soon. Teams using ugly gray jerseys like the Pistons, Celtics, and Wolves come to mind as particularly egregious offenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like you used the old smokey blue (or whatever it was called) on the paw logo instead of the other blue. I thought they were phasing out the lighter blue?

It’s understated, sure, but that doesn’t necessarily signify a lack of intention. Honestly, it was the very first thing I noticed about the logo.

Normally, I would agree, but I also don’t believe they’d change the orientation of a mark they’ve used for twenty years “just because.” The only formal difference to point to is the natural symmetry of the claws in the new one, so I think there’s something to it.

Yeah, I'm still not buying it. Had they shaded the rightmost claw, then maybe. But as it is, the M is too muddled to work as a conscious choice. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!
