Chilton92 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 The new Pistons logo doesn't do the wordmark any favors, imo. It seems to look better arched than flat. I think it's time for them to find a new one. http://www.manic-expression.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keynote Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I wonder if the Wizards are emphasizing their stars & stripes alts during the playoffs because they plan to declare them as new primaries as soon as the league permits. Not necessarily because the alts are a superior or more popular design than the current primaries (reasonable minds can differ), but because the current primaries' design is not as conducive to placing a sponsor logo in upper left corner, due to the horizontal stripe. A thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilChameleon Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Apparently the Cavs are also getting completely new uniforms next season as well as the patches? Cleveland sports for life!"Laugh hard. Run fast. Be kind." -The Doctor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they're getting new uniforms. All the information I've heard indicates that it's mainly pretty small changes, but I can't confirm that. *Edit: Looks like navy is sticking around in the redesigned logos and uniforms. From the Cavs' press release on the partnership with Goodyear: Notice there's no mention of the alternate uniforms. They must wanna keep us guessing as to how many alternates there will be, and what color they'll be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berlin Wall Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I'm surprised navy is still around for the Cavs. I thought they would replace it with black. I'm a simple person, I have a pixelated David Beckham as profile photo since 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like teams are trying to at least keep the ads tame on the uniforms, minus Brooklyn... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stripes aren't the standard weight used by Adidas on their ubiquitous (and trademarked) pattern, but it's probably still too close for Nike's tastes.

While I'm not behind the weird obsession to stick with navy, I'm glad they aren't swapping for black. If they just went straight wine and gold it'd be better, but I'll wait and see with these adjustments. Feel a little lucky that though I hate ads on jerseys, this was the best possible scenario as it's local and less invasive than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stripes aren't the standard weight used by Adidas on their ubiquitous (and trademarked) pattern, but it's probably still too close for Nike's tastes. Could be, but it's not necessarily Nike's call. When the NFL switched to Nike, the Patriots were able to retain their white socks with the three stripes: The Patriots didn't make any changes to their uniforms, so it's not exactly the same situation, but still. If the Cavs wanted to keep the three-stripe trim as part of their new set, Nike would be obliged to go along with it. It really just depends on the Cavs' desires and how much liberty they were willing to give Nike during the design process (assuming Nike had any say at all about the general design, which isn't a given). It was surely a collaborative effort with Nike, at the very least to figure out how the new design would work on Nike's templates, but that doesn't necessarily mean Nike had any say in the actual design itself.

What else can be used to advertise? The team name, of course! The 2025 Eastern Conference finals: featuring the GE Celtics vs. the Stub Hub 76ers! I just hope the Little Caesars Pistons can officially unveil their logo in a timely manner... Just another step closer to a Rollerball reality.
