  1. I feel like quite a few of those concepts are better than where they landed
  2. Scrolling through twitter and I thought Colorado's big reveal was bringing back the sky blue. Real white/gold blue/black dress moment for me.
  3. They should definitely make the keys look like docks! They could've had so much more fun with this idea. I'm thinking woodsy, "Great Outdoors" vibe as opposed to something that looks like the background of a digital directory in a big city hi-rise. They missed the boat with missing boats.
  4. New Temple branding coming in tomorrow https://twitter.com/jbosack/status/1686015129433849858?s=20
  5. Bring back the ILLINOIS decals or go nuts and recreate this:
  6. Yes. It was the apex, even if it was the most contemporary NFL thing ever (mid 80s no less!) to make a league wide mascot program. Given todays toy/collector culture, it's amazing they haven't brought the Huddles back, or at least licensed them to Funko or Super 7.
  7. Not a lot that would save this helmet (seems completely unnecessary) but inverting the colors on the C would go a long way. That shade of orange works like a lighter color, which in my mind, signals to make the darker color the outline. If they wanted an orange helmet, they should of just really mixed in up and add stripes or put another logo on there altogether. It's like they wanted to stick to tradition in the most garish of ways.
  8. I wish KU would stop leaning on trajan so much (or at least create a custom font that takes elements from it. It tends to make everything look like a knockoff. Love this look or some variation of it
  9. Something about vertical stripes on football jerseys just seems off to me. They feel more natural on long sleeves (think track jackets). They had a run in baseball with the Astros, Indians, and Mets and were okay, but there was a bit more real estate to play with. With pads they just seem to be more pronounced as shoulder decoration than sleeves. For 20 years they've been trying to solve this, from yokes (titans) to tiny logos (bucs) to wonky vertical ornaments (falcons) to weird truncated stripes (niners). The vikings may have the best solution so far by hinting at old hoop stripes, but adding a modern touch.
  10. You did a better job of getting my point across. Nike spent nearly 10 years as another name in the business, They had their fans (many who pronounced it the same as "like", to illustrate how well known they were), but McGregor SandKnit was as ubiquitous in the culture. Funny how they didn't get strapped to the rocket until they released shoes WITHOUT the swoosh and replaced it with the jumpman. I think that speaks volumes to whether it was the logo or the marketing that people fell in love with.
  11. As a designer it's the WORST logo ever. Do you know how many times I've had a client ask for "something like Nike"? The logo isn't great, the company is just dominant in their industry. If they fell into the depths of LA Gear or British Knights we wouldn't be asking why they failed despite such an iconic logo. I get it, It is an iconic logo, but only when attached to one one the biggest success stories in history. Put Lotto's logo in its place and we'd be talking about how it's instantly recognizable to 99% of the world.
  12. Lakers dropped their 75th Anniversary logo on twitter this morning
  13. Kinda hope the Bengals do a white jersey without orange trim, as wasteful as it seems. (If they'd just make the primary white have more orange, even better). A cool twist would be to replace any orange accessories with light blue, playing off the icy eyes of white tigers.
  14. With Snyder looking more and more likely to take a fall, I could see another name change in the sake of "turning the page". It's completely possible that the league grants them an exemption from the 5 year rule and we get he Red Tails identity we deserve.
  15. It would have been a good opportunity to refresh the logo too. The uneven line weights and gold inline feels very "millennium" to me when everyone seemed to be on the swooshy orbital oval train. It really feels like a holdover from the red facemask days and just doesn't seem at home with a classic set. It suggests there should be a gold inline elsewhere on the uniform. Not sure why it bugs me so much for a team I loathe. And before anyone says it, I don't know why the black outline doesn't bother me in the same way.
  16. New SF City kits are fantastic. Great looking clubs in the bay area right now with exception of the big guys down in San Jose. https://www.footyheadlines.com/2022/04/san-francisco-city-fc-2022-kits-released.html
  17. At least a team using a airport abbreviation finally makes sense
  18. Posted this in the lower league thread as well: Some more background on Vermont with extra interest to this forum. A designer owned club! A lot of great stuff in the package. https://vermontgreenfc.com/a-letter-from-designer-club-co-founder-matthew-wolff/

  20. Love it. Feels like a natural foods brand. Perfect Vermont vibe.
  21. These seem to be offered for northern cities for the most part. They seem more like parkas that trench coats. My guess these are for early season/postseason when we get some chilly temps in those cities.
  22. I was really hoping for some pre NBA 1920s uniform news...
  23. Harder to believe it's the 10th oldest park in the league and will be working it's way up. likely to6th or 7th, in the next 5 years.
