  1. Did the bottom of the 3 fall off? Woooooooof.

  3. that’s a mockup template, nothing fanatics related
  4. Here are the two ways I would "fix" the Avs without the black, but I don't know if they are great solutions: A ) Darken the blue and shift the hue toward a blue-green: I understand this probably isn't close to the actual original shade of blue, but in my memory and nostalgia (trading cards from the 90s and Wings/Avs rivalry tributes) this is how I remember the Avs: By pushing the blue into more of a "blue-green," it both warms and darkens the look considerably... So when I see images like this, with the blue lighter and closer to royal, it immediately feels colder and more jarring (which may be a good thing for the Avalanche, depending on your view): I think something like a darker version of the mid-00s Seahawks, or a slightly more blue-shade of Eagles midnight green would be the sweet spot: B ) Darken the burgundy and shift the blue hue slightly toward a blue-green: Look, if the Ducks don't want to use this color scheme full-time, a slightly twisted variation would work for the Avalanche. We're not going to go full-jade and the Ducks "plum" is a shade or two closer to violet than the Avs burgundy, but no one has ever said that the Mighty Ducks uniforms were unbalanced or awkward. Again, this might not be a realistic option with too much history between the two teams, but from a pure aesthetic point of view, I would be a big fan.
  5. the old logo is from the "beats by dre" era of the early 10s while the new logo actually has some modern character and that 't' could easily be used as a stand-alone icon for an avatar or app icon
  6. I agree, and add Vegas as a supporting point of this line of thinking as well.
  7. I prefer the logic of the current bolts (disregarding the navy alternates, which intentionally break these rules): 1) Is the lightning bolt placed on a yellow surface? If no, the bolt is yellow. If yes, the bolt is white. 2) Is the bolt placed on a blue surface? If no, then the bolt's outline is blue. If yes, then the outline is white. People forget how disjointed the Chargers were for so long with different bolts on different surfaces with different rules and they couldn't get any form of logic or consistency: That was the one thing I appreciated about the 90s look: they made a decision and committed to the bit (white bolt, outlined in blue and then gold, always on a blue surface):
  8. Feels far more likely like that's UA's stock shade of "dark red" and they aren't going to go to the effort of finding a "plum," or even more of a Mississippi State or Texas A&M "maroon."
  9. That Under Armour shade of plum makes me very sad
  10. The red and navy uniforms look good, but if the red and blue are separated by a white outline, then the biggest proponent of why they chose navy instead of royal blue goes out the window (that being navy contrasts with the mid-tone red better than royal, another mid-tone). As for the white uniform, the double outline is a bit too muddled and works better un-outlined in my opinion.
  11. The "inversion" is that they flipped the highlights and the shadows... the dark parts of the crest are now light and the light parts are now dark. They "ghost logo"-ed their own crest. It's a little less egregious because it's a symbol and not an illustration, but the crest has less visual weight and is more intricate when inverted.
  12. What kills this kit for me is that they inverted the colors on their badge for some insane reason... Instead of having a red crest on a white shirt, it's a white crest on a white shirt. Dumb.
  13. This looks like an emblem embossed on the button of a pair of blue jeans.
  14. Plus the Lakers are perhaps the preppiest team in the league. Trying to out-prep them feels like a shift from winning over the living, breathing Los Angeles community to trying to poach some of that Lakers-dominant Hollywood market. Maybe they can pull it off with the new arena and some on-court success, but that's a tall, tall order for a franchise with their history in my opinion.
