Like if you were looking out towards the ocean at night and you saw a marlin jump out of the water and the neon lights of the city of Miami quickly glistened off the wet body of the fish. That's what I see. Watch out for the jetty... Too soon? Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverBullet1929 Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 Anyone else being reminded of this 2017 ASG concept that was so well received? Definitely looks like they're going for the same night time neon theme by having it black on black... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does look like its the same red-orange color rather than pink which is a shame. Only going by the first leak and its terrible quality, it's almost as if this logo works better in real life execution than it does as a graphic. Hard to think of any other examples of this happening. 73, 77, 81, 83, 90, 06 29, 30, 31, 36, 39, 44, 61, 62, 65, 66, 67, 96, 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet1929 Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 https://www.color-hex.com/color/f8777c A friend of mine picked this hex color out of the recent images. It's like an orangey-salmon... I think this would work. It's not too pink or too orange. Seems just right. With that said I'm not convinced they didn't just keep it the reddish orange they currently have. The cap image makes it look orange to me. I could live with that. It would be basically keeping the same colors and rearranging the balance but dropping the useless yellow. But if it is pink... can we remember that original Marlins owner Wayne Huizenga wanted them to be the Florida Flamingos and wear pink? They could say this is a subtle nod to that especially since Huizenga passed earlier this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible the logo isn't as strong on it's own but they have a chance to really nail the execution of theuniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSU151 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I really don't see the orange in the hat image. Definitely looks coral to me. That link that Silver Bullet provided looks pretty spot-on.

LMU Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Based off of the official color swatch from TruColor, the shade is very close, but a bit more pink/color, from the official red/orange color. However, the Marlins don't actually wear this shade on the field. They wear more of a standard SF/BAL orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Orange and black was such a stupid idea for this club.

SilverBullet1929 Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 Props to the Marlins for creating something new instead of just going backwards and rehashing the 90s look. You can take inspiration from the past when appropriate but you also gotta move forwards and not backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashcarson15 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I don't think the Marlins' new "M" is really that similar to the Brewers'. It certainly wasn't my first thought when I saw the logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
