I like the colors, but that's the only thing they go going for them. Basing something off their Statement Jerseys over the past couple of years would be a good direction. They're a victim of their success in this regard. They got locked into that logo and these colors. I never thought these bright colors were great for a team called the Thunder (something you associate with dark skies and dark clouds). They need a new logo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berlin Wall Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 The Thunder really just took the old Warriors lightning identity and threw some sky blue in it. 11 Quote I'm a simple person, I have a pixelated David Beckham as profile photo since 2010.

They didn’t just take it, they somehow made it worse. Replace the word Warriors with Thunder on that uniform and it would instantly become the best OKC uniform ever, by a landslide. 6 Quote Follow the NFA, and My Baseball League here: https://ahsports.boardhost.com/index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The net side pattern was a unique and distinctive detail for the Nets the addition of which would make their current uniforms already decent. They should've kept it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please don’t touch the primary logo, though. One of the few (maybe the only) branding/design decisions they got right during the 2010s.

Their primary is very nice now (aside from the TERRIBLY crafted letterforms, but that's another discussion) and will certainly be around for a long time. They either need a skull/piston alternate logo or maybe a new interpretation of the horse/ball logo from the '90s. Something with some character and creativity to it. The DP ain't it. 6 Quote Red Goat Creations :: Graphic Design Solutions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty used to the font as it's been used since 1996 (wow 25 years!), but I can definitely see how it would cause consternation to a design professional. With that longevity, it's probably not going away though. I am somewhat optimistic with the #1 pick coming in and how the team seems to be much better managed since the turn of the decade that some good stuff might finally be happening with the alternates in the coming years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's oven too beige and dull when it is used. Love the bold reddish orange like old shiny bobcats. Okc should make it theirs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The part on top reinforces my opinion that the primary logo is a piston in a chamber en face. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
