pepis21 Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 1 hour ago, Ben in LA said: True but not just the bone jersey was being trashed. The whole look (broken horn, odd numbers, the colors) was criticized and a couple of folks on this forum did say they wouldn’t win with this look. Yes that true but Bone (by most of community) was and still is trashed to the max compare to rest of the set. To be fair Rams look is easier to fix than Jazz because Rams needs few tweaks here and there and Jazz need a new full re-brand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's a good argument about a full Jazz rebrand since the new uniforms are broadly just a recolored version of the previous uniforms. They still have the angled stripes under the arm and on the shorts. The font is very similar (changing serifs but little else) and note logo is unchanged.

Playing Devil's Advocate here, but if the underlying brand was strong enough to begin with, there wouldn't have been a need to continually tweak the team's look. As much as I disagree with the direction of this re-brand, I don't think the intent was misguided. You ask five people on this board which look works best for the Jazz, you'll probably get five different opinions. The new owners were taking a swing at addressing they. They just missed — badly. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is an interesting insight. You might be right though I would add that the Jazz suffered at the time for an embarrassment of riches. They had several themes in their brand that were all, on their own, really very nice: the basic set, red rock, 90's, classic 80's. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's also worth noting that, for the most part, all of those looks are substantially different from one another. There's no continual thread between them. With maybe one exception, they could be looks for completely different teams. The Hawks have had some really appealing themes over the years, too. But most of them appear built off the same foundation. That's where the Jazz differ. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You hit the nail right on the head. The intent was definitely good and I’m one of those Jazz fans that felt something needed to change, so I was completely on board with the general idea of a rebrand. Problem is, ownership’s idea of what said rebrand should be was a horrific idea. They not only swung hard and missed on a fastball down the middle, but they fell right in the dirt and flung the bat into the second row. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In particular, the red rock design, though sharing fonts with the base design, was dramatically different in color tone and ornamentation from the base design. It did feel to me like at some point, they needed to pick a lane (see e.g. pre-2020 Brewers). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, back to normal after the 75th anniversary ones. I made sure to purchase a Swingman (red Cade city) as a momento of the season. 3 Quote Red Goat Creations :: Graphic Design Solutions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
