I'd assume it's because they couldn't get deal with a big apparel company. Seems like this would have been perfect for Under Armour or Adidas since they had an AAF deal.
I'm actually shocked that the uniforms nice though.
I was wondering the same thing. I think some solid secondaries could really round out a good set of logos. Monograms for teams like NY and St Louis, more detailed logos for Tampa Bay and Los Angeles.
It's usually better for smaller schools to just stick with UA. Typically they end up with more unique designs as opposed to a generic Nike template. Nike doesn't seem to care unless you're Syracuse, Duke, UNC, etc.
Not only will fans hate it, but how terrible would this be for the players and employees of the organization? Imagine having to move your family 1500 miles away to a different country in the middle of the baseball season.
The Browns are a mess right now, but I do really like the color rush aside from one small detail. The "Browns" wordmark on the front should have been tweaked to match the new font. I never liked that serif font and now it doesn't match the wordmark on the front bumper. Even though these were designed prior to the Nike disaster, it shouldn't be hard to update.
Erie was home to a GE locomotive factory for a really long time, so maybe that's what they are going for with that type? I sort of get that vibe but it might be a stretch.
All the logos are a bit rough and could be cleaned up a bit. Luckily they look better on the jerseys.
I think they are playing off the penguins fanbase in the area, but using the old Erie Blades to justify it. I grew up with the full logo so there's
nostalgia associated with it for me.
Also I take it back. The keystone logo is pretty sloppy so it better just stay small on the sleeve.
Really glad they brought the otter logo back. The script alone just doesn't work, but I can deal with it on the gold jersey. The keystone logo is a nice touch too. Maybe that will make an appearance on the alternate in the future.
I don't understand why people go through so much work with these photoshops of newly acquired players. Just wait a few months and you'll get a real photo of these guys on the field. Just looking at some of the OBJ ones make my uniform OCD go crazy.
Sometimes script logos are fine. But the Otters script is so wonky and sloppy it never deserved to be the centerpiece of the teams branding.
I grew up with the old logo. I wish they would have just kept that, as cheesy as it was....
I'm sure Brandiose can give them this stuff...
1. Music note with a face shaped like an 'F' or 'K'
2. Firework with a face swinging a baseball bat
3. An F+K combination with fireworks and music notes
4. Overly designed wordmark made up of fireworks and music notes
am I missing anything?
Well the "mascot-element-forced-into-a-monogram" is their favorite.
Pretty sure every team they've done has at least one or two different variations of that.
Somewhat related. I guess last week this Bills fan bought what looks like a fake jersey and it went viral.
Then went on to ask the Bills for his money back.
Can't really feel bad for him, he's an idiot.
