Colorado Rockies Concept

Oh you're right. I forgot those. So there IS quite an argument for teal and purple being 90s trendy colors. Also, I was at the thrift store a few weeks ago looking for amusing t-shirts, and you can tell these were all first bought around the mid 90s. Never seen so much teal and purple. I was drowning in teal.

Yeah... there is an argument, I guess. But to say the Rockies chose purple to follow the trend in which they were among the starters of isn't true -- especially when the color has a tie to the name, and the logo.

Here's my take

I think I would prefer this if the brown were replaced with black. In other words, replace the silver in the Rockies' current scheme with the tan. I'd like to see how that worked.

It's also a different shade of purple. I made it duller.

... You named 4 teams for purple

And wasn't the Kings change in 1995? The Bucks in 1994? Jazz in 1997? I don't know how accurate these dates are, they're the years each 'revamp' or whatever is listed as on Chris' site, but they might've had purple in their schemes before this.

the Jazz were already wearing purple when they overhauled, so they don't count.

Yeah, I didn't think about that, though. But they also don't count towards the 'trend of purple' point, either.

But those were just because they were held over from N.O. Nobody said they HAD to wear purple in the new scheme.

How exactly is that following a trend if a team chooses to carry over one or more of it's colors into their new design? Face it, man -- you have no argument.

[The_Admiral]

Yeah I'm carrying the Jazz thing too far.

Gotta admit purple and teal are 90s colors though.

I replaced the brown with purple. Go to the first post to see the changes.

I've never been crazy about the Rockies' color scheme, so I redid it with colors more "mountain like".

The "CR" logo is the hat logo, obviously.

I might do a BP later on.

Bump.
