Also note that all the Nike home jerseys were already shown at once (and only a small number of alternates have yet to be unveiled), so if the Phillies had gone with silver outline it would have been really weird.

Digby Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 On 12/15/2019 at 12:58 AM, Jungle Jim said: They've been referring to retail jerseys as "authentic" for years now, so I'm not sure what else to say. If nothing else, they're purported to be an accurate representation of what the players wear on the field. I would assume that part of the motivation for spending $350 on a jersey would be because it's like what the players wear, in every detail, but maybe that's just me. Again, I'm certainly not here to defend Nike, their logo, or their role in the production of the jerseys, but if the owner wants it to maintain its "authenticity", the logo should stay on there. If pure aesthetics are the priority and accuracy be damned, then get rippin', because yes, it does look better without it. I mean I think most people buy these things to support their team, not support the advertiser, nor to run a museum. I'd suggest just getting old pre-swooshed ones on eBay for way cheaper, personally.

BBTV Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 The swoosh looks especially bad on Phillies jerseys, where it’s right over the P which is already higher than all the other letters, so it is visually a part of the wordmark. how can anyone that claims to care about aesthetics not be upset about this?

Dynasty Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 God, it looks worse on Washington. Not only are the crest and the numbers not on the same level, they add the swoosh in there which is higher than the crest. It makes the entire front of the jersey unbalanced. It's a total mess.

BC985 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Simply put, like @Dolphins Dynasty said, baseball jerseys have too much open real estate for the swoosh to not look ridiculous. Then again, that is sort of the point from Nike’s perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dress shirt doesn’t have a “mark” on it. 2) Look up the definition of fact. 3) submitting and acceptance isn’t the same as looking at it from a design perspective, which is kind of the whole point of this board.
