Jgreiner Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Do we have any idea on what the All Star jerseys will look like this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortunat1 Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 While the circumstances are unfortunate, a move to Las Vegas gives the A's the perfect opportunity to adopt their superior logo (and color scheme) full time. The current logo just isn't as good as this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hormone Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 I never get why teams wear alternate or specialty jerseys on a league wide theme. I mean the whole Boston CC mess today is my point. Side note: I hate the CC program, but this one bothers me the most for some reason. Another side note: I’d love to find someone who never watched sports and show them the Sox CC and the football giants roads and ask them to point to “big blue” and the “Red Sox” also, the pirates put out another CC teaser apparently it’s not a Y but it’s the three rivers. Also, the Y is upside down in the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They looked way better back in the day when they used simply the A. 1 2 "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."

BBTV Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 This is a great jersey. Cleaner than with the apostrophe. I get that “A’s” is way more commonly used than when the Mariners tried to push “M’s”, but it’s still a nickname for the nickname so I’d rather just go with the abbreviation for the nickname.

Fan support isn’t the reason they are leaving, it’s the local government. but what about all the great players they always trade when it's time to pay them??

Weird look, but I don't totally hate it since the lighter blue on the jerseys matches the lighter blue on the cap. - - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why stay and do the same thing in a crappy stadium? That doesn't mean people in Vegas won't show up to games. They're moving because of the crappy stadium. Not because people didn't show up when they traded players. 1 https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are moving because the stadium literally floods itself in :censored: atleast once per year, and they haven’t been able to get a deal done with the city for a new stadium that doesn’t have :censored: seeping from the ground underneath it. Las Vegas is giving them the stadium deal they wanted. It has nothing to do with fans coming to games or not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Folks, let's leave the discussion about the hows and whys of the A's relocating to the thread in Sports in General, please and thank you. Speculation/news about ensuing name/logo changes can remain here. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 I predict the A's will keep much of their current identity intact, modify the colors, and add a Las Vegas script as everyone else has mentioned. But I also predict they'll add a black and gold alternate uniform (City Connect?) as soon as possible. 1 https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VampyrRabbit Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 Making the Elephant white again will be most fitting when the team moves into the New Las Vegas Stadium (AKA Marlins Park West). 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortunat1 Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 I came across the All Star Game helmet logos today at work. Nothing special, and simple enough to recreate, so here they are: Nothing spectacular here, but it implies that we have another year of the game itself being played in the all-star jerseys and not the individual teams' uniforms. Also a bit odd that they put a serif on the AL logo and left the NL one so plain, but the helmet logos aren't really integral to the aesthetics of the game, so I don't really care. It should be noted that I didn't see the helmet color though, but given the white outline (and the game being in Seattle) I'd bank on navy helmets. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now the two colours have a Luminescence value too close, and it doesn't really pop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
