colortv Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 There's no way the Rams primary away uniform is going to be anything but gold, blue, or white. It would literally make zero sense for it to be anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the surprise drop of the logo (the day after the Rams, no less), to the confidence and swagger to say “we know we have the best uniforms, but we’re gonna make them even better,” to then (in my opinion) actually delivering on it! And the guts in their reveal video to essentially say “who cares?” about NikeSpeak explanations of design choices is refreshing (and I say that as a person who generally enjoys NikeSpeak - so long as it results in a good design). The emoticons for social media are also a super cool way to handle a modern branding, which is a nice counter to the Rams tradition and roots in LA. I’ve got to be honest, if I was a Los Angeles sports fan with no prior allegiances, I might be leaning towards choosing the Chargers right about now.

It’s more of the comparison that both the potential off-white uniform and potential gradients are slightly odd choices to implement into a branding like the Rams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really took that to heart and that was the design premise that we started with. There is also a different subset of fans that liked blue and white, so we have also included white as our third color because it does play a part in our history.” https://www.insidehook.com/daily_brief/sports/los-angeles-rams-unveil-new-logo-rebrand Quote “We always looked at blue and yellow and white; we looked at a wide range of things around that as accent colors,” Kevin Demoff, the Rams chief operating officer, said, via Lindsey Thiry of ESPN. “But at the end of the day, that was one place we knew our fans weren’t going to compromise.” https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/03/23/rams-new-logo-colors/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Est1980 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Any LA Charger fans know if they've adjusted the Super Chargers fight song, or if they're even gonna use it? I always thought it was cool. SAAAAN-DIIIII-EY-GO, CHAAAARGERS! works so well! I'm not really show how they'd fit LA in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they use Don't Stop the Party for touchdowns now. Pretty sure they've just completely dropped the old fight song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliforniaGlowin Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 The powder blue and white jerseys in that vid look good, but that royal blue looks very Rams-ish. Last updated 2/26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also a shot at the over-thought design-speak that usually accompanies a rebrand. Big thanks to infrared41 for the image. You're welcome, but that image actually came from Still MIGHTY.

bootscallahan Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 The Chargers almost got it perfect. They would look a lot better without the italicized numerals. The helmet numbers look like they were applied off-center. OklahomIraqis Leagues (OIL): Born in Baghdad; Kept Alive in Oklahoma OIL Commisioner; Arrogant Americans Franchise Owner; League Historian.
