sawakita33 Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Hi everyone! I'll be posting my G League uniform concepts here. I doubt I'll finish them all but I'll try my best . I've been really disappointed with the branding and aesthetics of G League teams. They have the same colors and worse — team names as their parent clubs which doesn't give them unique identities. The generic uniforms don't exactly help either. My goal is to make the G League uniforms better than their parent clubs . They will use a different set of colors inspired by their NBA counterpart's history. But I will make use of their current logos and wordmarks so the teams would still feel familiar. I really liked what the WNBA has done with their color on color matchups so I would also apply that here. Enough with the blabbering and lets get to the concepts!

sawakita33 Posted March 15, 2020 Author Share Posted March 15, 2020 First up, we have the Northern Arizona Suns. This is probably not the best example as the colors are still the same as its NBA counterpart's. But the Suns haven't really had any other color scheme except for the ugly gray ones. The design is obviously inspired by their most popular jersey and updated to use NAZ branding. The waist logo is the Arizona flag which was also used in the Suns's current city jerseys. Although it's not exactly unique from its parent team, I'd say that these are way better than Phoenix' uniforms. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberwolf Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Those are sweet. I'm intrigued to see how the other clubs are going to look. Will be following this for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edjb93 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Off to a great start! Will you do a white uniform for every team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tore Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Looking forward to the rest! Deyr fé, deyja frændr, deyr sjálfr it sama; en orðstír deyr aldregi hveim er sér góðan getr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sky1324 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I really like these! Only thing I'd fix is the ball itself: it doesn't convey motion in the way it should. If you change the line placing to better resemble the parent club, you'll see what I mean: the lines are key in conveying the forward motion that helps the rest of the lines fully complete. the user formerly known as cdclt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I imagined the G League having violet vs. light green, pink vs. teal etc. etc.. 13 hours ago, QCS said: I really like these!

I rotated the ball to the left because I have to preserve the north pointing arrow. And you're right it does look better! Thanks for the suggestion man So here is the updated sunburst along with a white version. Hope you guys like it: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberwolf Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Honestly the parent club should adopt those. I’m looking forward to see what you do with my Raptors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m looking forward to see what you do with my Raptors! I'll try to move 905 up my list Speaking of violet vs. light green, here is Wisconsin Herd. I based it on the 86/87 Bucks uniforms because I really like the combination of the shades of green. Of course there should be the rainbow pattern on the sides which its parent club also currently has. With a unique color scheme, these uniforms give the Herd its own identity while still connecting it with the Bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberwolf Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Those are beautiful. I’d even consider buying one, and I’m from Toronto! I’m trying to nitpick and I can’t really find anything that I’d change. Although, maybe a splash of red would look nice, while also tying in the history of the parent club.

kb105 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 How would it look to make the wordmark and number white-light green-white on the dark green jersey to match the side detail and to maintain the pattern the other two share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blindsay Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I feel like in the future, maybe a city uniform that matches their parent club?

I probably don't have the time to do it because I have to create all NBA teams' uniforms . But adding city jerseys seems like a good idea.

For team pink, we have the Sioux Fall Skyforce! I used the Miami Floridians color scheme because the Vice branding is too tied up to the Heat. And it doesn't hurt that the colors apparently look like the current Miami palette. I kept the design simple, much like the Floridians' jerseys. The waist logo came from the Sioux Falls Flag. I'm not really feeling the pink uniform but the white and black ones look really sharp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PERRIN Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Sioux Falls, along with the rest, look amazing. I would love to see a version of the Skyforce with full vice colors. Great Job!

The design is already sweet, but sky blue would make it amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
