cajunaggie08 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Yes the "Runnin' Horns" unis were atrocious. What a hideous number font.

ykiki5 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Am I the only one who loved the Charlotte Hornets jerseys?No, you're not the only one. I thought they were great because they were so different that everything else you'd see at the time. It had a very "European" look. It was also a time where pleated slacks were starting to make a comeback in men's dress fashion. Plus, the multi-colored pinstripes were a feature carried over from men's dress sweaters in the "Colors by Alexander Julian" collection. I had one (and my girlfriend loved it!).

Byron19 Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Those Hornets uniforms were awesome. In fact the first couple of years they had the alt. Hornet logo, which I think may have been one of the first alternative logos that I can remember. And no love for the tie-dye Nets unis? For shame.

StoneRaizer Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 The pinstripe Hornets uniforms are some of the greatest ever, along with the pinstripe Magic jerseys. Here's the purple Hornets alt: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zman65 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I'm pretty sure the '00s will be high in the running with the '90s for jersey tackiness, when all is said and done.Way to go, Cincinnati Bengals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedsunited Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 pinstripes belong only in baseball.and i'll second that motion about the 93-era Sixer unis as the ugliest of all time.And the Runnin' Horns was a direct rip off of the Runnin' Rebels (who took their nickname from the Runnin Utes).

See Red Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 That Texas Tech/Kentucky game might've been the ugliest ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasoul07 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 The matching road unis for the Atlanta Hawks were pretty sweet (at the time)....If anyone knows where I could find some shorts like that, let me know....Ahh I miss those days. I actually kinda liked those Huge Hawk jerseys at the time. But I still long for the pac man unis. And is that a shot of the Hornets Honeycomb court in pic #3? Now THAT was 90's design at it's best (and worst)Those Hornets uniforms were awesome. In fact the first couple of years they had the alt. Hornet logo, which I think may have been one of the first alternative logos that I can remember. Which alt was this? I only remember the purple one they busted out along with the black Bulls jersey and the blue Magic jersey.I think he was talking about the alternate logo on the shorts they used the first 3 seasons... this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wman Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 What about U of Kentucky's 'denim' unis? They were way tacky. Bring back the Whale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron19 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Jasoul I was talking about those, sometimes my thoughts get ahead of my fingers on the keyboard ... sorry for the confusion. And while we're on the topic, as much as I loved their primary logo, I think that the alt was really good too. Simple and to the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KP14 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 In a way you can kind of thank the Hornets for every new team's jersey that has come out since. They were the ones that hired a fashion designer to create every aspect of the uniform as well as pick colors that would sell well. (In essence create a brand and less an identity) They succeeded incredibly well. At the time I was at an age where everybody, regardless of where they were from, had to have Hornets crap. They sold boat loads. Did anyone care about the team? What team?And ever since just about every successive new franchise has pretty much followed suit with the same idea.
