Sport Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I don't like this nba trend of using the city name on both jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadojoker Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Sixers and Raptors new uniforms looks almost EXACTLY like their previous 2014-15 unis! Wth??! No outlines. Sure it's just the inside of the coat but we all know that's not the case. Laziness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aIpha Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I don't understand why everyone assumes this is the new jersey. I imagine the process went something like this:Noel: Hey, I want to stitch the jerseys to the inside of my blazer again, is that cool?Sixers: Well, we haven't unveiled the new uniforms yet. But we did unveil this wordmark, maybe you can just use that with the old numbers? Something unofficial until the reveal but still repping philly.Noel: Ok.

walkerws Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 maybe, just maybe some teams are going to wait for the new manufacturer to get jazzy. The NBA has seemed to be heading to basic designs lately. Almost like the teams are moving to D-League designs with word marks being the only difference. Obviously it won't get that bad but... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I really like that the numbers are the same color as the letters as opposed to the past 5 or so years.That is all.

mafiaman Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Have we figured out the actual shade of blue being used for this logo yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habsfan1 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 The home jersey needs to say Sixers. For that reason, they are a big downgrade. Fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigEd76 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I don't understand why everyone assumes this is the new jersey.It fits everything we've heard so far, then there's this:MikeSielskiNoel on whether his jacket lining was the #Sixers' new uni: "As much as you can show. The stars on the side, you can't fit it all in there." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost like the teams are moving to D-League designs with word marks being the only difference. Obviously it won't get that bad but...This has irritated me as well. NBA uni design has taken a turn for the worst ever since Adidas introduced the rev30 template. Everything has gotten so boring and simplified it's ridiculous. Number outlines and wordmark outlines have mostly disappeared. Bevels and drop shadows are pretty much extinct as well. Hopefully a new supplier will bring about some positive changes.

BBTV Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 So what would look better on each jersey?-white side w blue stars-white side w red stars-blue side w white stars-red side w white starsI think white side w red stars maybe for both.

Chromatic Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 "There's a bunch that are worse" is not a reason to do anything.Where did I say that it was?When you said, "I don't have a problem with it, especially when there are already a bunch of 'nickname' jerseys that are much worse."That's not an endorsement of it because other teams do it. That's me saying "I don't have a problem with it". "There are other 'nickname' jerseys that are far worse" as an aside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habsfan1 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Looks like it might be a monochrome look. All blue home and roads, which would mean all blue stars.The only red would be the #7 within the logo and the red alternate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Invader Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Why can't we have trim on numbers / wordmarks anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habsfan1 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Why can't we have trim on numbers / wordmarks anymore?Because they match the style of the words used in the primary logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaydre1019 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 A circle of stars inside a semi-circle of stars? So superfluous. They could've put the word 'Basketball' in there to fill the space.Why, so it could be an even bigger ripoff of the Nets? It already basically is a Nets "ripoff", so going a bit further doesn't make much difference in that aspect. Especially when that old Nets logo with the word 'Basketball' in it is no longer in use. Adding stars everywhere just for the sake of stars is a huge fetish of American sports branding, something that really annoys me. That's not mentioning the fact that there already is one circle of stars in the logo.Just to clarify, yall know that the nets logo that everyone is "ripping off" isn't their primary right? And they're not the first team to utilize a roundel? Just wanted to make sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kutztown Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I wonder if they will use the Knicks template and incorporate r/w/b in the collar. That would match up with the Billy Cunningham teaser they put out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conrad. Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 so maybe my idea a couple months ago was near correct (with the new wordmarks + numbers of course)? Red Goat Creations :: Graphic Design Solutions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikWings Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Would prefer Sixers on the home as I said before and maybe some red outlines around the numbers, but otherwise looking/sounding good so far based on the Noel teases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinsUp1214 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Correct me if I'm wrong, but back in their early days (I'm thinking the Wilt and Greer years), didn't the Sixers only have "PHILA" on both home and road jerseys? It seems like they didn't put Sixers on a jersey until a little later. If so, I wonder if that's the inspiration behind "PHILA" on both here.
