It's not a color scheme you seen a lot of, which is why it works to me. 1 Quote 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this really the point we're at now with this stuff??? To me this just smacks of the type of stuff you do when you run short on (or out of) "forward-thinking innovative" ideas. The Miami one especially. Some of those are alright, but overall...yeah, I must be reaching that crusty old curmudgeon age... I actually don't mind the general concept of these mixtape looks because — at least in spirit — the designs are built off prior looks rather than further diluting these brands further by dressing them up in themed clown suits. But the other side of that is it can also highlight the lack of branding consistency from some teams. The ridiculous ransom note Miami jersey is a great example of that. And I don't know about you guys, but I don't need a reminder that Detroit had a teal era. I'd rather forget it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not something black and white represents. This just feels like the easy way out. There is no creativity or branding involved here it’s just wiping the slate clean. For what it’s worth, I combed through a random list of the 100 best album covers, and 29 of them had black and white artwork as the focal point with little or no color. 5 Quote I still don't have a website, but I have a dribbble now! http://dribbble.com/andyharry [The postings on this site are my own and do not necessarily represent the position, strategy or opinions of adidas and/or its brands.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's actually rather common in the jazz/soul genre--shoot, for much soul music period, jazz or otherwise, from what I've seen. Being that black and white photography/imagery tends to focus more on the emotions/dramatic effect (which is kinda vital for music) and not so much the person/people/object, I think that's why they do that so much...for whatever that may be worth. 6 Quote *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimball Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 I think once all is said and done with the unveiling of the "mixtape" jerseys, we'll all have wished teams went with straight forward throwback jerseys like they did 25 years ago. 6 Quote "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

They have never had lightning in their branding ever. 2. No it’s not. It’s clearly a straight side panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I look, the more I actually do think the side panels are in the shape of a lightning bolt. Who knows. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frylock Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Also, if we go back and look at the Twitter leak, there’s clearly a lightning bolt over the jock tag, which comes from bolt under the word mark of those late 1970s uniforms. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but it wasn't always done consistently - sometimes it would be the wrong number, sometimes it would be missing altogether. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharplcd Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 4 minutes ago, Igor Coelho said: It was only a matter of time before the Knicks gave us this predictable black uniform. Last year should’ve been indication enough. I’ll reserve how I feel till we see the whole thing! I’m really gonna need some more blue on this uniform. Overall this doesn’t speak as much to the idea of blending elements from the past vs. what the Knicks have in their history. I love those late 90’s jerseys with the black on the side stripe, but to go this direction for the 75th year uniform seems confusing when you’ve got such a rich history.

DJT Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I honestly miss the old Knicks jerseys with the black side panels from the Sprewell days. But yeah I'm not seeing much "mixtape" with that one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If legit, the only positive I see here is the classic wordmark. They should've never changed it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
