illwauk Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 While I'd love it if Milwaukee went full-blown royal and yellow, the navy and non-metallic gold look good together. I am glad they brought barrel man back though.I prefer royal as well, but they could do a whole lot worse than this.I also hope Barrel Man replaces Bernie... never cared for him, even when I was a kid.

illwauk Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Racist or not, I just don't like the Chief Wahoo logo. Lots of thin, short strokes...just not well-designed. The block C is even worse; there's absolutely nothing distinctive about it.I don't understand why the block C gets all the hate it does. Not only is there a historical precedent for the Indians using it, but it manages to be distinct amongst all of the other teams that use a C monogram.

IceCap Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Yeah. Its simple stylings also reference the fact that the team has actually been around a while. An old school looking being used by an old school team. It works.Racial arguments aside Wahoo has actually been associated with a lengthy championship drought for the team.

Looking like a 1930s generic high school team isn't a good thing, IMO. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

BigBubba Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 There is no reason why the font on their caps shouldn't match the one on their jerseys. The block-"C" font (TribeType) is actually really nice; if they used it for their scripts instead of the bland, generic one they use now, I think the'd have a really solid-looking set. That being said, the 1990s uniforms, provided they be worn with navy accessories, are their best. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnPheitseog Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 From here, i think they should take the C from this jersey, put it on a blue cap with a red brim(blue brim on road) and call it a day Formerly known as DiePerske Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chakfu Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 And because Oakland had been using "A's" for about 15 years when a team in their division decided to create a store-brand knockoff of it.It looks like the elephant had "A's" on its back since 1939 too.

jp1409 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 The Indians navy alt jersey is listed as new on MLB shop. Anyone knows if they also changed the navy on their jerseys?

I swore I saw hats in 2001 or 2002 that had this, plus the Astros' batterman was outlined in sand too.I think that the "I" looks OK but I really, really prefer city initial on the cap. I know there is nothing special or distinctive about it, but I really like the below. I think the current block C logos "red on blue" and "blue on red" are visually jarring and a white outline would help...and I say this as a person that tends to like white-free items (like Cavs alt/road, for example) Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

hawk36 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 The Cardinals alts were classic, incredible, well designed, very nice. I just don't see it with the Mariners'.That's a gorgeous look... for the Brewers.I also think the Mariners' navy/teal is now the best its ever looked, which is apparently an unpopular opinion around here.This poster agrees with you. The only problem I have with the tweaks is the silver on the road uniform. I would've made that white as the gray base color can pretty much act in silver's place. Has anyone seen the sleeves of the home and road? Did they add piping to the arms like they have on the alternates?Also, anybody else notice they moved the compass rose down lower into the M?Two fixes that would vastly improve this look:1) Remove the outter blue outline2) Fix the compass logo. Yellow highlight with blue shadow doesn't work. Need to be rethunk. Design Hovie Studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
