Artisan219 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 So I was looking at NFL apparel awhile back and it struck me a bit odd that the NFL replica jerseys would be so popular. In many NFL cities, it's too cold for jerseys after August, and most fans like to wear NFL apparel to game. So I thought I'd make a facsimile jersey out of a hoodie. In due course, however, I realized that this allowed me to make concept jerseys rather easily (each of this gif files is made using one 3DS Max file and seven texture images).The first (and I have 40 of them to post) is Seattle. I really hate that one-color theme they have going. And I have to imagine from a merchandise standpoint that that algae green isn't very popular in a dismal grey Northwest winter. So after the Seahawks-Rams game that closed out the regular season, I made this design.You'll notice I tried to incorporate a lot more lime green into the jersey and used the dark blue to add some good contrast. Essentially this design pulls together the home and alternate jerseys into a singular design (this was kind of a theme, I don't have any alternates, just home and road jerseys).

Luigi Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 This is a good idea but i think it would work better if you just copied the team's jersey design straight onto the hoodie. This would work really well with hockey jerseys as well My fantasy teams: West Coast Cardinals (WRU), Glasgow Claymores (RLI) (Champions 2012) and Pemberton Foresters (VBL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e15725 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Wow..you have a winner there. With hoodies being all the rage now these would be a popular piece of apparel . I would buy this in all my favorite teams for sure. Fantastic and limitless in design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aci Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 That is pretty cool. I have a Bengals hoodie that is just the helmet design on the hood, and then a wordmark across the chest. Your idea is much better. Hamilton Eagles- 2012 and 2013 Continental Hockey League Champions! 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 & 2015 CHL East Division Champions!

leggman01 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 really creative idea to make the hood the helmet...i personally would never wear one (i'm not a jersey wearing kind of guy), but i think the market for them could be really big, especially if they replicated an actual uniform more closely (like the reebok one linked by means, with the helmet on the hood) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buster Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Wish I had it still, when I was a kid, I had a white Redskins hooded sweatshirt with a burgundy Skins helmet on the hood, with the stripe down the middle and helmet logos on the sides. On the front, it had the same numbering/lettering as the Franklin uniform sets for kids...with #17 (Doug Williams). That was an awesome shirt.Similar idea here, just has back graphics.

Brave-Bird 08 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 why would you change the team name and add turquoise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ink Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 The only thing I don't like is the light blue in the Washington one. Get rid of it and you have a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artisan219 Posted February 4, 2011 Author Share Posted February 4, 2011 why would you change the team name and add turquoise? Simply this was part of my logo project. I was asked by a friend (a full-blooded Cherokee and a Maryland native, no less) to come up with a team identity that was more politically correct, especially for the national capitol.The turquoise was my own doing, and I put it in because I thought the jersey needed a third color and because turquoise is so closely associated with Native American adornments. Also, though this had nothing to do in the concept phase, Buster hates me making any changes to the Redskins, and for some reason that just makes me feel all toasty inside.

andrewharrington Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Make it a zip hoodie and throw the standard jersey on there, and it's a winner. If 'algae green' wasn't a good seller in the pacific northwest, it would be gone. The Seahawks are among the league leaders in merchandise sales to market size ratio.
