    That Jets idea is really outstanding! I really think the navy alternate is the best of the bunch, since its colors make the design read much more clearly as jet wings... Especially since I prefer the logo over the wordmark, I'd honestly love to see that as the basis of the set with some light blue added to it. Certainly light blue number outlines, and maybe with diagonal stripes below the wingtips and a chevron above the hem stripe.

    Also, it's not really necessary, but there's a part of me that wants to see the collar and the laces' background colored to match the wings, to subtly represent the nose of the jet.

     

    Minnesota looks good with the Winter Classic-inspired striping, but I think there's way too much empty space on this jersey... I'd bring the two sleeve stripes close together somewhere in the middle, and lower the numbers a bit... I'd also consider adding a second hem stripe, and enlarging the logo and wordmark (there's definitely enough room to do both!)  Otherwise, a pleasant look to bridge the old and new! Since the Canucks don't want to use their historic arched wordmark for some reason, it can look good in Minnesota :P

     

    Nashville looks solid, though I think the sleeve striping really needs a thicker outline to match the shoulder yoke (i.e. white outlines at home, navy outlines on the road.)  I think the current one is a lot better, but the old number font works fine here.

     

    Gosh those Black Hawks jerseys are really nice! Love the use of vintage white and emphasis on black, and the stars are right at home! (They sometimes feel tacked on in Black Hawks concepts, IMO...)

     

    A perfectly reasonable idea for the Capitals, but I'm feeling conflicted about it... The rotated logo looks a fair bit nicer, but the adjusted striping loses its W shape, which is a real bummer. The recoloration is solid, though. I also feel like outline-less numbers might help the W patch feel more at home...

    I really appreciate all your insight! I will look into seeing what those changes you suggested would look like on the jerseys. As for the number font for Nashville, I have just been using what fonts I can find for free online. I agree that the current font would look better but am unable to find it. If you know of a better method for finding and using fonts please let me know, it would be greatly appreciated.  Once again I really appreciate your thoughts, it helps me further develop my skills and get a better eye on what to look for.

    I love that sleeve stripe. That is really nice!

     

    However, with the wingtips positioned where they are, it almost looks like the jet would be flying in the opposite direction from the way the player is moving, but if you switch them and put them on the back of the sleeves, they wouldn't be visible. Hmm...

    Thank you for pointing that out! I revised them to make it look more like the wings are actually going in the right direction.spacer.png

  3. Next up is the Nashville Predators. I didn't stray too far from their current jerseys. I just changed the striping and added a different alternate. The six thin lines in the striping are supposed to resemble the six strings of a guitar as a tribute to Nashville being the country music capital of the world.

  4. Hello everyone, I have been a visitor of this site for quite some time and have always had a passion for uniform design. I have never been able to post any of my own designs because I have not had any formal training in design and have been busy with college. I have recently been teaching myself photoshop and illustrator and figured it was time to display some of my own designs.

     

    These NHL jerseys are my take on what I think teams should look like. These are what I think these teams would look like if they did a redesign without straying too far from their current design.

     

    All feedback and advice is welcome as I continue to work on my design skills.

     

    Thank you and I hope you enjoy!
