GameCock82 Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 I wanted to try something new and also havent done a uni in a while. So i thought of what teams need a "make over" and the first team that i thought of were the Boston celtics. Let me know what you think.

JamesCraven Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 I don't like it.You don't tug on Superman's cape, you don't spit into the wind, you don't pull the mask off the Lone Ranger and you don't mess with the Celtics uniforms. (A gazillion retired numbers, sixteen NBA titles, etc.) Even though I am a certified Celt hater from back in the day, the uniforms are as sacred as St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City...and I'm a Lutheran!

vicfurth Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 Gotta like the wording, JC. Great job! With some work, this could be pretty cool. I'd go with darker green instead of black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshawaggie Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 If you don't like this uniform, gimme a "Hell NO!!!"I don't like it. way to be constructive.....anyways, I like it as a basketball jersey, but it looks more college to me than Boston Celtics. Nice Unis though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mings Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 If you don't like this uniform, gimme a "Hell NO!!!"I don't like it. That is the best C&C that has ever been offered on these boards. Thank you James Craven for being such a model citizen and showing us how to correctly give critiques to a design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J23P Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 i like your concept. i would change "celtics" on the road uni's to "boston." i am a fan of the road team sporting the city name on the jersey as well as the team nickname for the home jerseys. i would also take out the celtics logo and put in a shammrock instead on the front of the shorts, OR, take of the logo of the leprichaun and put a shammrock smack dab in the middle of the side of the shorts. just an opinion, but i like it. the C's need new uni's bad.

ReginaCanuck Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 i like it, but replace the leprachaun with the clover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 in theory, i like the idea behind these uniforms... in real life, i'd be upset to see them on the court.to make these better overall, i'd change black to dark dark green (like the dallas stars, or phili eagles)... then i'd go with a less generic font, perhaps...but most of all, i think you should drop the leprechaun from the upper back of the jerseys, and replace it with a contrasting shamrock.

Saintsfan Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 The celtics are one of the NBA's untouchables, so this was a brave concept to try. I have to say I don't like to see the balck on there. I think you would get away with the concept far more with just white or green trim. I would leave one of the Leprachauns on there(perhaps the one on the shorts) and replace the other with a chamrock.But Red Auerbach would be riolling in his grave if he were dead looking at these. Leave the Celtics alone, minor touch ups, maybe an alternate, but no redesigning please!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quantum Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 I like the use of black in moderation, and I think these are OK. I would like the inclusion of orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsox Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 These are okay, but I would have liked them more if you added more tradition such as keeping the font for the letters they have now. The double stripe patternb wouldnt be bad either. ALSO:Lose the blackAdd the clover on the back instead of the leprechaun...At the least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magus Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 im of the opinion that NO team is untouchable. in fact they could use another logo. its nearly 30 years outdated.as for the concept at hand,i like the overall template and wouldn't mind seeing the celts wearing them. something i'd add is some black and gold trim around the green and the lettering and numbers. maybe darken the green abit. overall very nice design.sidenote: i don't care about the sanctity of a logo or jersey design with respect to tradition; if its outdated, change it.

I never said the logo was untouchable. But personally I think by and large the uniforms are. Modernisation, by changing the style of the trim or whatever would be fine, and Gameocks changes bring them more towards that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiznit1083 Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 I happen to really like the first version of this concept. I love the striping patterns and basic colors. I was pleasantly surprised when I opened this post and saw the concept. I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GameCock82 Posted March 6, 2005 Author Share Posted March 6, 2005 thank you all for your comments, well when i was making these the idea for the striping popped in my mind. But the side view of the shorts did not turn out the way i intended. i think i should have made it straighter instead of having the dramatic curve to it. New Concepts coming soon.

LEWJ Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 I think one of the jerseys should say BOSTON. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
