The throwbacks don't have that notch in the outline on the left side of the 5 that your picture has. Like I said above while you were probably typing this, I'm all for accuracy in throwbacks, but I don't like the look of that detail in a uniform that I otherwise really like. Edit: and the font is different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: and the font is different Yep. Just edited my post as I spotted it too. Can’t win ‘em all, I guess. One detail that reeeeeally bugs me is this one: whoever designed the Bills’ throwback must have used a Polaroid-quality photo as the only reference to confirm the sleeve design, and now the Bills’ throwback will probably forever have two blue stripes and two red stripes on the sleeve: A better photo shows that the sleeve stripes actually were an inverse of the socks; four blue stripes with red trim: I still don't have a website, but I have a dribbble now! http://dribbble.com/andyharry [The postings on this site are my own and do not necessarily represent the position, strategy or opinions of adidas and/or its brands.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZipperClub Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Spring training: Jersey patches use the three letter abbreviation (ARZ/FLA). Painted grass logos use the two letter abbreviation (AZ/FL). Drives me nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCM0313 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Metallic colors in matte finishes. Not sure how small of a detail you would consider that, but it bugs me. Also (probably more in line with the original purpose of this thread), the little trademark symbol at the end of a logo. I get its purpose but I'd rather they didn't put it everywhere. It's irritating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jn8 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Something a lot of people probably don’t even notice: the Rams’ classic jerseys white names on the back There is no white anywhere else on the jersey. Gold contrasts perfectly fine on its own, why make the names white? Similarly, I’d also drop the white stripe on the pants and have either Blue-Gold-Blue or just one solid Blue stripe. The two colors have enough contrast, don’t muddy it up with white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont care Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 On the vapor untouchable template I hate how if you have stripes or a pattern on the collar the get cut off by the triangle of vented mesh material and don’t continue to a full v neck.

M4One Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Adidas curving the stripes on NHL jerseys is just as bad as Reebok's extreme whale tail. What is the point of the curved hem in the first place? For Reebok, they had the dumb idea of tucking in the jerseys, but that never ended up happening, so why couldn't they just make the hem straight anyways?
