Yeah, probably. Here's an idea I like better: making the flags dual-colored. I left the letters and the inside sleeve stripe white, as I feel like it works better when the white is surrounded by red & navy. 7 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJD7 Posted April 24, 2023 Author Share Posted April 24, 2023 Atlanta Braves City Connect I honestly think their uniform is fine, so I wouldn't change anything, but I added a black & red version, which fits with the color scheme I gave them and is a more fitting civic color scheme for the city of Atlanta. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJD7 Posted April 25, 2023 Author Share Posted April 25, 2023 Texas Rangers City Connect I like the Rangers' City uniform, so I just added the "rope" striping from the socks onto the sleeves. Like the Braves, I also added a "team-colors" version because I couldn't decide which I liked better. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJD7 Posted April 28, 2023 Author Share Posted April 28, 2023 Seattle Mariners City Connect The M's new City Connect jersey is pretty much perfect, it's the pants where things go south. I just changed the black to navy & replaced the patch with the new "M-trident." I'll likely be back with an attempt at a full redesigned set in the navy & teal inspired by this design. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gets rid of many of the extrenuous design elements, but still has a design that is distinctly Seattle Mariners. Great job! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do feel like the navy alt could use some white or maybe a lighter gray added to have the word mark stand out more from the navy. It's a bit muddled for me as is. I would totally be down for the Mariners switching to these for good though, so well done. 1 1 Quote United Baseball Association | the MLB Ferris Wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to agree, I think this would be a solid approach if the Mariners were to get a (needed) redesign. 11 hours ago, Megildur said: That teal alt is a thing of beauty! I love what you did here.

Your feedback of the navy alt is very fair, I'm honestly not as in love with the silver/teal beveling as I thought I'd be. Something like this would probably be better, and would be more cohesive with the rest of the set: My only issue with it is that there isn't much teal, but I suppose that's okay for this one jersey, since the rest of the set features it a bit more prominently than the team currently does. Thanks again for the feedback! 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 The compass dotting the i interrupts the natural curvature of the wordmark and kinda clashes with the way everything else is rendered. I'd ditch it. If it needs to be forced in there, maybe work it into a sleeve patch rather than a redundant M that appears 3 times on some uniforms, and twice on others. 1 Quote "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

Thanks again for the feedback! One solution for the lack of teal on the navy alt would be to add a third teal stripe to the sleeves and collar. Might not be a bad idea to add a third stripe to the other three jerseys, as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I think the Mariners wordmark looks like it's missing something without the dot to the "i." The redundancy of the M-trident is a valid criticism though, as that was something I was concerned with going in as well. Originally I had a compass rose S logo prepared, as the sock leak suggested they were going with: Maybe this patch would work better on the home & alternate jerseys. 7 hours ago, coco1997 said: One solution for the lack of teal on the navy alt would be to add a third teal stripe to the sleeves and collar.

If I were to add a teal stripe on the navy alt, then I would need to add a navy stripe as well, as I wouldn't want the teal touching the white or silver, just as it does not in the wordmark. In my opinion, that would be a bit too strange of a striping pattern to add in. I went with the two-stripe pattern because previous Mariners jerseys have used it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJD7 Posted May 14, 2023 Author Share Posted May 14, 2023 Cincinnati Reds City Connect Even though it bugs me that their jersey really has nothing specifically to do with the city, the design itself isn't bad. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sky1324 Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Nice change for Cincy. Any chance we could see a color swapped version with a red base and black text? 1 Quote the user formerly known as cdclt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure thing, I toned down the red just a bit for this one because I felt that pure, bright red would be a bit much for a full jersey. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
