Victormrey 1,758 Posted August 13, 2016 Hi everybody. As some of you may know, this is my third series. The first one was about baseball, the second one was about soccer, and for this one I deicded to imagine what if the clubs from the (British) Premier League were Baseball teams. Each team will have three uniforms: a white or off-white home, a grey road and an alt one, which I will try to make close to the actual soccer kits. First of all, let's start introducing the clubs' names: -Arsenal FC: London Gunners -AFC Bournemouth: Bournemouth Cherries -Burnley FC: Burnley Clarets -Chelsea FC: Chelsea Blues -Crystal Palace FC: London Eagles -Everton FC: Merseyside Toffees -Hull City AFC: Hull Tigers -Leicester City FC: Leicester City Foxes -Liverpool FC: Liverpool Reds -Manchester City FC: Manchester Citizens -Manchester United FC: Manchester Red Devils -Middlesbrough FC: Boro Smoggies -Southampton FC: Southampton Saints -Stoke City FC: Stoke Potters -Sunderland AFC: Sunderland Black Cats -Swansea City AFC: Swansea Swans -Tottenham Hotspur FC: Tottenham Spurs -Watford FC: Watford Hornets -West Bromwich Albion FC: West Bromwich Throstles -West Ham United FC: London Hammers Alternative Name Ideas: -Sunderland: Tyneside Black Cats I'll be doing and posting the designs in alphabetical order (like the list) above. Each team will have a cap logo different to their actual crest, and this (the actual crest) will be featured on the left sleeve of the unis. I'm also thinking on featuring the league badge on the right sleeve. C&C appreciated! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaffa 653 Posted August 13, 2016 Just one thing to note on your names - Sunderland is on Wearside, not Tyneside. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Victormrey 1,758 Posted August 13, 2016 Thank you guys for the feedback! Now, let's start with the first team. LONDON GUNNERS (ARSENAL FC) Arsenal FC are know as The Gunners becuase, back in 1886, Woolwich Munitions workers founded the club. The colours chosen are red, white and navy, which the club have used for most of their history. The primary logo is a design often used by the fans, which consists on a simplified rounded version of the club's crest, and the cap logo is inspired by the Highbury's Art Deco logo, using just a G. The home and road uniforms feature the tradtional white and grey with red and navy details, while the alternate uniform is mainly red with white sleeve, based on the club's tradtional look. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aggie12 428 Posted August 13, 2016 I really like the uniforms and the primary logo, I think they work well and I like the third kit a lot because yes its based off of an actual arsenal kit but its actually would work in reality as a baseball uniform. I think the cap logo just doesn't work I realize what your trying to do but I don't think the "G" works in that art deco style, maybe try an "L" for London. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the info, I will take it into account in case I decide not to use "Sunderland" as city name. 12 hours ago, Aggie12 said: I really like the uniforms and the primary logo, I think they work well and I like the third kit a lot because yes its based off of an actual arsenal kit but its actually would work in reality as a baseball uniform.

Honestly, I'm doubtful about the cap logo. I want to use the G, in order to distinguish them from other London teams, I'll be working on it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Victormrey 1,758 Posted August 14, 2016 Let's continue with the southernmost team of the league. BOURNEMOUTH CHERRIES (AFC BOURNEMOUTH) For Bournemouth I decided to use Cherries because it's the club main nickname, taken from their colours. The colours chosen are red and black. The main logo is a bunch of cherries in red and black, and the cap logo consists on a B and a C put together and a cherry inside the C. The home uniform is off-white/cream, inspired by the Bournemouth coast, which is one of the main resort destinations in the UK. The road uniform is grey, and the alternate is mainly red with black pinstripes (the club actually uses red and black stripes, but I don't think that would fit a baseball uni, so I decided to go for pinstripes, which have been used by the club a couple of times). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coco1997 3,719 Posted August 14, 2016 That Bournemouth uniform is simply fantastic. Everything from the logo to the cream home jersey to the red pinstriped alt is just top-notch. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Victormrey 1,758 Posted August 15, 2016 (edited) Time for The Clarets! BURNLEY CLARETS (BURNLEY FC) This one is easy, Burnley FC are known as The Clarets because that's the main colour of their kits since 1910. The colours chosen are claret and light blue. The primary logo is an own version of their actual crest and the cap logo is a B and a C inside of a honeycomb, inspired by the bees from the crest. The home uniform is white, the road is grey, and the alternate is inspired by the club's 1960 kit, season in which the club won their last league title.

coco1997 3,719 Posted August 15, 2016 I love the color scheme for the Clarets. I would arch the wordmark on either the home or road set, and for the alternate, put either the primary or cap logo as a crest on the front of the jersey. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

About using the logo on the alt, I wanted to keep it on the sleeve, in order not to make all the team alt designs in the same style. About the road wordmark, how about something like this? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
