LA Fakers+ LA Snippers Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 I like what the Thunder tried to do with their 2017-18 City jersey. They tried to take the few identifiable part of their logo and make it part of the uniform. However, the execution makes it the second-worst City edition ever(sorry New Yorkers, but that award belongs to "the City that Never Sleeps"). The gradients grays and the bright yellows muddle what could have been a solid uniform. In an attempt to fix it, I made 3 prototypes. All three do the same major changes.... Changes the base from gray to white. Utilizes their signature navy on the neck and shoulders. The two small inserts on the neck become orange and blue to match the stripes. Replaces egg-like color with navy. Prototype One contains just the navy outline. Prototype Two has "OKC" match the logo with a drop-shadow, while the number remains the same. Prototype Three uses a drop-shadow on both. Being a Lakers fan, I love a good drop-shadow, so naturally, #3 is me favorite, but I want to know what you think. C&C appreciated! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOLAPelicans23 Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 I really like #2, but like the yellow is used, the light shade of blue would make it pop in the OKC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtgco Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 I'm obviously anti-OKC Thunder, both the team and its branding... but that version 3 is solid. The simplified colors are a huge upgrade from the real thing, and the drop shadow on everything really makes the difference. The asymmetrical colors of the thin slivers on the shoulders are really nice. Maybe a tiny sliver of orange underneath the wordmark would be cool? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The literal approach The outline (which was too orange-heavy to me) ...and the blue number outline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
