logos are cool Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 Hey, everybody the Clippers are wearing thier old "San Diego" Clippers throwback uniforms tonight. They are sweet!! The nautical flags on the shorts are really cool and very original. The fact that it spells out CLIPPERS is extra sweet. It would be cool if they would switch back to these?Maybe someone could do an updated concept design based on these unifroms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 Yeah this was a real great look and I didnt know about the Nautical Flags spelling Clippers that makes it even better. The Clippers need a new approach and going to these unis full time will be a great start. 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...

the_cynic Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 The thing I love about these Clippers uniforms is all the nautical flags on the side of the shorts. The league is definitely missing original design like that in today's digs.kc51design posted an awesome Clippers concept a while back and I feel it's time for some recognition. I sure hope he doesn't mind me posting this.

Discrim Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 paging Morimoto (copy and paste)not exactly based on the original, but sort of a mix of the script Clippers, the SD jersey and sails. so here ya go.

logos are cool Posted January 28, 2004 Author Share Posted January 28, 2004 That concept is a nice attempt however those uniforms seem too busy. They really need something more simplified Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STL FANATIC Posted January 28, 2004 Share Posted January 28, 2004 I'm not big on these for the Clippers. The Bulls look great though. JUSTIN STRIEBEL | PORTFOLIO | RESUME | CONTACT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X-Man Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 Props to Elton Brand for wearing the matching powder-blue shoes last night. As athletes, Andre 3000 and pimps everywhere know, if you're a 6' black dude, there isn't a piece of clothing on God's earth that can make you look gay.Discrimihaters' are pretty cool, though I think the flags across the back make it a little too busy - they look cool on the shorts.Not sure they should go back to the old logos & unis full-time though. That name was really just for SD, and then they just didn't bother changing it when they moved to LA, but dropped the nautical association. It would work if they played in Long Beach, but that's not gonna happen. If they wanted to go back to an old name, I always thought "L.A. Braves" sounded pretty cool, plus the Braves had great unis of their own - black and orange, with the diagonal stripe like the Blazers', only thinner. And of course their team song could be Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Fight Like a Brave.""fight like a brave don't be a slave no one can tell you you've got to be afraid"sounds like the Clippers this season!

STL FANATIC Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 isnt that the sixers font they use for the numbers?Yes, it is, but oh well. I don't really like the clips throwbacks, but the flags are cool. JUSTIN STRIEBEL | PORTFOLIO | RESUME | CONTACT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chazberg Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 Yeah those throwbacks suck, but that concept logo is kick-ass. I never even knew the name "Clippers" had a nautical association. They should bring that back into their boring-ass current unis. charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_cynic Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 Well as far as uniforms go I'd like to see the trim designed in such a way that it looks like rope. Kind of how the Timberwolves have the little green pine trees on their neck and waist bands. I think the nautical flags could possibly be tide into the logo but not too many. Surprisingly, the Clippers do have a lot of potential for a great new look and I think the concept below looks great.Rope Example Below: Utah Jazz Retired Number's#1 - Frank Layden - #7 Pete Maravich - #12 John Stockton - #14 Jeff Hornacek - #35 Darrell Griffith - #53 Mark EatonRetired Number's To Come#00 The Bear (Best Mascot In NBA) - #4 Adrian Dantley - #32 Karl "The Mailman" Malone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickNickNick Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 I'm not sure about the retros, but what are the blue ones I've seen them in with "Los Angeles" in script written across the front? Is that an alternate or what? I think that may be the best jersey in the NBA. Spoiler New York Rangers. Stanley Cup Champions - 1928, 1933, 1940, 1994. Saskatchewan. Cold. 1905-2022.

NJTank Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 Yes the blue unis are an alternate I think they are good too, much better then the red road uniforms they usually wear. 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...
