griffelh Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Home cap is White on Navy only. Road/Alt. cap is sand with white outline on Navy.I don't see anything about an alternate cap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 is that the swinging friar patch on the alternate?Yes it is! New Logo Story I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubsFanBudMan Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Overall, I'm not as thrilled as I thought I'd be. I like the roads because they are unique... and that wordmark reminds me of something... can't place it. But I agree that the homes and alts are way too Brewers with that script, especially since they pretty much used the same colors (at a glance, not specifics). I like that they brought back brown, even if it is in an extremely lighter shade (OK Shark, it's khaki, but still...)The logo doesn't really do it for me, but it's fine. The old one didn't say Padres, either.... it was just the word on a circle with pinstripes, so...I think if anything this indicates a change for the Brewers, maybe back to the loved/dreaded mb-glove. Why else would they allow them to copy so close? I mean, they had to notice, right? That script just drives me nuts, cause it really looks like the Brewers now.One last thought... from the pics it's not clear, but is it possible the light blue will save them from being too Brewers-esque? It's gotta be in there somewhere, but I just can't see it. Need better pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wdm1219inpenna Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 The home uniforms seem to capture the "Padres" script that they had in the mid 70s, except in navy blue and not brown.As for the uniform itself, it definitely looked exactly like the Brewers home uniform to me at quick glance.The road uniforms, interesting lettering, but rather bland once again. Â The alternate was okay.And the new logo.......as soon as I saw it I said to myself "Gee, did the Boston/New Orleans/Portland Breakers of the USFL move once AGAIN?"Regards,Bill McD.

IronChefShark Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 the new primary is great! now the uniforms...I like them because well, they arent brown!I dont like them because the road uni isnt gray. and that lettering on the road uni looks wierd to me. that oversized D in the center kinda throws it all offwhen I first heard the colors I immediately thought chargers. now this confirms it. navy blue, light blue, and gold/khaki just screams chargers to me. but overall, they didnt go back to brown (khaki has as much to do with brown as teal does with orange for the record) and they kept the friar around. therefore, Im satisfiedand yes, expect football and hockey x-overs for this new look in a couple of weeks US state flag concepts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ez Street Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 i like the look, where is my boy the Friar. I figured they'd have him on the sleeve. @DavidStreeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Man, these are wonderful. Almost perfect. I have just one complaint. The drop shadow in the wordmark on the home and in the logo. It doesn't need to be there. Nothing else in the design features it, and it looks great without it on the alt.Oh well, still great.

IronChefShark Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Id like to see the back of those uniforms, mainly because Im wondering if theyre going with a custom number font or staying with the standard block font US state flag concepts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 I do not like the new look at all. The surf styler script don't match the team name and the tan and blue color dont match well. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac the Knife Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 I like the look, but I agree with those who say it looks too much like the Brewers.The home plate design is a cool idea, but with the exception of the Friar nothing in the new look conveys 'Padres.' Â Guess I'm one of those who, to Sharks' disgust, will always see the Pads in brown and gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kc51design Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Brewers... maybe, but I think it looks way too close to new Blue Jays, at least the style is the same. I bet it's made by the same company / artist. Logo would be good if the team is called Waves, but padres should have something about Padres in it. Yes they wanted to reflect San Diego in logo and colors, but why do you have nickname if you only want to reflect the city. Anyway, nothing revolutionary, nice update, that will fade in few years and they'll need another update in 5-6 years. lockerroom51 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sc49erfan15 Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Honestly, how do you convey the name Padres? Have a logo with two parents? The Friar is included, and that's enough for me. Nobody complained because "Nordiques" was represented by a stick and igloo or "Athletics" by an elephant... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
