Not a fan of that wordmark logo either. I sure hope the J-E-T-S don't botch this, but I have a feeling they will. I'd hate to have to see those twice a year when they play the Bills. I wish they'd just return to the late 60s / early 70s logo that was pointed and shaped like a football and mounted on about a 45° angle, and in Kelly Green, now those were cool. Why they made it oval shaped like a rugby ball and switched to the Forest Green in 1998 was a big mistake to begin with, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, can you put my mind at ease and tell me those cheerleader uniforms aren’t representative of the new color scheme? Yeah you're right the few caps I saw were based on their indv flags and I didn't get the reference until seeing all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why the concept is so bad. You shouldn't have to see a group of hats to realize why they're designed a certain way. If someone was walking down the street in that Saints hat, I'd have to think most people would think it looked weird and wonder why there's 3 logos.

But if you’re from there, and you saw someone walking down the street in that Saints hat, you might think it looked interesting, it was a fresh change of pace, or appreciate the link to the New Orleans flag. I don’t think you can really call the concept bad when you’re only looking at it from your perspective and not the perspective of the target audience.

FormerLurker Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I’m pretty excited to see some of these. My love of unique flags was like a stepping stone into sports logos for me. I’m surprised more of you don’t feel the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm pretty sure I'm going to hate the Browns version. Doesn't help when your logo is a stupid helmet. Still I can't see buying a hat with the Ohio flag on it either.

Oh, the Browns version is absolutely going to be awful, mainly because their logo is a picture of a helmet. That will make even the Ohio flag look bad, and it’ll be worse if they use the Cleveland flag as inspiration.

Gr3g3 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 The city flag idea is so awful, I can't believe it actually made through to production. Who the hell has any pride in their city flag? I honestly didn't even know what my own city's flag was. I had to google it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to a few of these places, i can only tell you what washington and chicago's look like. The state flag...at least in texas (bc texas) is the flag everyone associates with.

sozopol Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Speaking as a New Yorker, the City flag is everywhere and a lot of people know that the orange represents the Dutch/New Amsterdam origins. NYCFC has done a great job of incorporating the flag on their shirt, the corner flags, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
