Lights Out Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Apparently BC's basketball team was considering these shiny gold uniforms when they signed with Starter in the mid-'90s: http://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-1994-95-Boston-College-Prototype-Game-Jersey-Shorts-by-Starter-Not-Worn-/182113634656?hash=item2a66d18960:g:47YAAOSwZSFXJO4y Quote POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 In addition to the inclusion of "The" in front of Orlando Magic in most of those logos, it's interesting that many of them use OrlandO. I wonder why the capitalizing of the second O was such an important design choice. 2 Quote https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subtle nod to Disney...although as litigious as Disney is, they probably couldn't have gotten away with it, hence the lack of a second capitalized "O" in the final version.

Gobbi Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Anyone ever seen anything like this before? It's a black version of the Kings' infamous 90s third jersey. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/FLAW-Last1-L-k-90s-LA-Kings-BLACK-Burger-King-Jersey-XL-New-Twill-Embroidery-/222135712199?hash=item33b851f9c7:g:1aEAAOSw41xXOsY9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The design is also not quite exact to any pictures of the "real" thing. That said, if anyone ever wanted to own one I'm sure this is the closest you'll ever get.

Lights Out Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 A couple more unused finds: Apparently, when Adidas was designing the Sacramento Kings' previous uniform set, they were originally going to put the wordmarks in their proper places: the city name on the road and (presumably) the team name at home. This prompts the question of how they managed to screw it up on the final product. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-AUTHENTIC-2008-SACRAMENTO-KINGS-NBA-ADIDAS-SAMPLE-JERSEY-48-0-SEWN-NWT-/291746084639?hash=item43ed6bf71f%3Ag%3AIEsAAOSwa-dWpykz&nma=true&si=OS9Q%252FJRktLie%252FzipTLqzf7tef%252BU%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Here's a prototype of the Bucks' prior uniform set. Not much different than the ones they actually wore, but the collar here is tri-color instead of two-tone. http://www.ebay.com/itm/VERY-UNUSUAL-SALESMAN-SAMPLE-MILWAUKEE-BUCKS-NBA-BASKETBALL-JERSEY-50-SEWN-ON-/182040744390?hash=item2a627951c6%3Ag%3AP84AAOSwKtVW1g8D&nma=true&si=OS9Q%252FJRktLie%252FzipTLqzf7tef%252BU%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 2 Quote POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
