  1. I think the Nats 2005 look without the the metallic gold looks incredible! The bevelin is more subtle, helping the wordmarks not to look dated. I also really like the colour wordmark swap between the home and road jersey. Great work as usual!

     

    As for the previous designs, the Rays look excellent with their original gradient, and the navy/brown colourway fits the Cubs like a glove. The blackout cleats is a genius detail 💯

    I actually think the added white outline to the wordmark makes it even more difficult to read. I’d try out  @Shumway’s suggestion if either thinning the outline or going with a brighter shade of purple for the letters.

     

    What about going back to the original shade of purple?

    The new wordmark is definitely a step up, but I think the two purples are slightly too close in value that from a distance, you'd lose the shapes of some of the letters. I'd either thin out the darker outline or maybe even add white in between the two purples.

     

    Agreed, it sort of gets a bit muddy. Here's the updated jersey with the new wordmark featuring a silver outline in the middle:

    Now that I post it I realise I should change the cap logo as well. I'll do it (apart from completing the set) if you guys think this tweak is an improvement.

    I like the spiked wordmark much more. Feels a lot more Colorado-y. The only thing I'd change is that I'd try tightening the letters up, similar to the way you had the original.

     

    What about this?

    The all-caps version of the wordmark is a definite improvement. I'd like to see the all-caps applied to the road wordmark, as well. I also LOVE the crossed pickaxe and bat logo. Nice work!

     

    My only big critique of the set as whole is that the primary shade of purple looks a little too washed out for my tastes. I would try out a richer shade, closer to what the team uses in real life.

     You could have a very clean Rockies version of the Angels late 90s brand and I think that's achievable but unsure if it looks correct right now. 

    I think the all caps font is an improvement, but it's probably too generic of font compared to other pro teams. Also the patch logo being a pick axe/baseball bat feels too nuggets, and would be too thin to work as a stand alone patch. They're themed after the geography, not a specific profession. I think a mountain climber ice ax would work better if you're committed to the crossed icons. 

    I think you're knocking at the door to something really special, and you're capable of that. Just keep trying to push it and make it more uniquely Rockies.

     

    Thank you both for you kind words and your ideas!

     

    @raysox I guess you probably meant the Angels' Disney era, but since you mentioned them, it came to my mind the idea of using some sort of variation of the current wordmark (kind of) with spikes, like the current Angels and Rangers wordmarks:

    I've already changed the lighter purple shade, as @coco1997 suggested.

    Also, I've already worked on a crossed ice axe and bat logo, and it will be feature on my next jersey post, once I figure out what to do with the wordmark!
