With the NBA likely expanding to Las Vegas sometime in the near future, I wanted to create a concept for an expansion team that I don't think anyone has done yet. I've seen a lot of very interesting concepts surrounding gambling, casinos, and other mascots that pay tribute to the culture of Vegas, but one that I thought would be really cool is something that connects to the Alien culture and lore that is driven by all the UFO sightings that have been seen in the city. Being so close to Area 51, I thought a "Alien-themed" mascot could be really cool, since it is a big cultural myth of Vegas that often gets overlooked, and there aren't any real alien themed mascots out there yet in professional American sports. Below is my full concept, and my pitch for who would make the perfect mascot for this team, if they could somehow pull off getting the legal rights for it.

This is sick!!! Its cool to see a concept that uses a powder blue with this set, I'm surprised by how much I like it. I love what you did with the flag design on the knee pads, something I didn't think of and a really good solution to not using the stripes down the pants.

Thanks so much! And I actually made them myself, took a lot of time but it was worth it. They're taken from old photo shoots from the Rams and Lions new uniform reveals.

I always say the same thing when talking about this, their current set its best and fits them best because it nods to the flag and also red and gold just work with the name nuggets, and blue is a color that you just can't remove from their branding. I grew up in Colorado and I never liked the powder blue and yellow, they never felt like a Colorado team to me. Their rebrand in 2018 changed all that to me, especially with the Mile High City jersey.

Wow. Thanks so much!!! I really appreciate all the feedback so far.

Thanks so much for the feedback! Thats actually a really solid critique, I agree it would fit really well with the helmet and would be a lot more seamless for the all blue uniform.

I love this, to be honest I have never been a fan of the Rockies purple and their entire color scheme. Same with the logo, just feels so tacky and out dated. I love what you did with the font and bringing in the elements of the mountains into the jersey. I've thought the Rockies would look great with a Colorado "C" logo on the hat that is on the flag, but I've seen a lot of people who aren't fans of the idea because they would look to similar to the Cubs, which is fair. I've also thought the Rockies could ditch this color scheme entirely and go with the Flag colors, or Colors like the ones the Avs and Rapids wear, but again I feel like a lot of people hate this idea. With that being said I love what you did with these colors, changing the purple slightly and brining in gold is something really new and striking, and much more interesting than what they currently have. Great work!

Thanks for the feedback, that was something I went back and fourth on myself. I debated just leaving the pants plain without any striping at all, but it looked like it needed something more, and same goes for the helmet. It felt blasphemous to remove some kind of stripe from a Broncos helmet, so I thought the classic stripe looked best, but I definitely get your point.

Thanks! I'd love to see them take on something new and different like this as well, I just hope its not a modern throwback like their color rush's for their new set, whatever that may be.

This is perfect. Really good job, I think this is much better than what they currently have. Perfect hybrid of the modern Dolphin design and classic/vintage Dolphin and Helmet logo.

So I recently created a Denver Broncos new uniform concept, I posted it across social media but I don't have much of a following yet on any platform and these were barley seen. I wanted to post them on here to hopefully start some creative discussion and get some kind of feedback. A little bit of background, I've thought the Broncos have been in need of a uniform update for quite some time. Their current set has some classic, iconic elements to it, but the uniform is now 25 years old and I think it's time for an upgrade. When I'd up "new broncos uniforms" online and see various concepts, a lot of what I've seen has been some kind of modernization of the 90's uniforms, and reverts back to the retro powder blue helmet with the old Broncos "D" logo. I think this is a classic and incredible uniform, but I personally really do not want the team to revert back to this uniform full time. I think it should be brought back as a throwback option, like other teams are starting to do with the new 2 helmet rule. When I see concept art or photoshops of the Broncos wearing this look now, to me they just look to similar to the Florida Gators and it just feels like there would be some initial excitement when the uniform first comes out, but then after 3 years fans would start to miss the modern uniforms and want something new again. So below is my proposal for something they could do. I know a lot of people probably aren't going to understand this and some might not like this direction at all but what I went for in this concept is tying in elements of different era's of Broncos uniforms with a new design and in this case was inspired by the Denver City Flag. I wanted to connect the team to Denver and to the state of Colorado a little more if possible, like how the Nuggets and Avalanche have, but also still look and feel like a classic Broncos jersey. The Denver flag design is incorporated onto the sleeve design and is truly meant to tribute the Rocky Mountains that grace the Colorado front range and are such a proud aspect of the Mile High City. I included a 4th uniform option in this that is just a retro look the Broncos could wear, so that the team could on occasion return to the vintage "orange crush" and powder blue helmet uniform that so many fans love, but still have a modern and new uniform to return to the rest of the time. Like I said, I know many people aren't a fan of including elements of State and City flags into uniforms and I know for many in Broncos Country this could be too big of a change. I just wanted to present a concept thats not solely based off of their vintage uniforms and something that is completely new and could be unique enough of a uniform to set the team apart from other classic designs in the NFL.

Imagine messing up so bad on a rebrand that everyone is already just wanting you to start from scratch again

I agree it's a massive upgrade, I always would get so frustrated seeing them wear those old 2000's jerseys in the late 2010s, especially when they go their new stadium - they just felt so out of place. My only issue with the new uniforms is little design choices that I feel will be outdated in 5-6 years, like the shadow stroke behind the numbers, something I think is a little out dated, and I'm not the biggest fan of the triangle stripping down the side of the jersey and pants. It feels a little unnecessary and random, like they just wanted to fill space. Also, they can only wear the read Jersey with the black pants, because of their whole gradient look of that uniform, and that to me is a bit of a bummer cause we can never see the classic red and white uniform that they wore all the time in the 2000s and 2010s. I definitely think their new look is an upgrade but again I just feel like the uniform will be out dated in like 3-5 years, kinda like what happened with Tampa Bay in 2013, although I never really liked those uniforms to begin with.

Thats insane. I don't know why the saints don't wear this matchup anymore, I always thought it was such a classic, clean look.

Branding 180s that have actually worked

I agree with you on that, I've also thought they did't use the yellow and red correctly between the home and away jerseys but yeah the earned uniform was perfect. Not too much blue or red and the right amount of yellow on the number.
