jake22 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 ok so the Cincinnati Reds have been around forever! they have a white, grey, and red jersey in their wardrobe so far. in spring training they wear a black jersey (on the road)(they wear red at home), i think that is cool so i turned it into an alternate road jersey. tell me what you thinkC&C THE ROCKIES STIRRUP PROJECTPart 1, Part 2...Oregon Duck Tracker 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozenguy Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I like that a lot. That logo looks really sharp against a black backdrop. Both on the hat and jersey. Nice shoudler patch as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habsfan1 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 that would be the spring training one i was talking aboutYou're right, I did not realize you were aware of the spring training one.It's clean but I think teams should tend to stay away from black as the main color. Every team who has a black trim is all good, but they don't all need to make a black jersey just because it's part of their scheme. Don't people like colors anymore?

elliott Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 jake22 - I chose this one of your threads to tell you something that doesn't have anything to do with the concept itself. Slow down. You have 4 concepts on the first page. I know its really fun and exciting to post new stuff when you are new to the board, but just space them out a little more. When you just throw designs out there, the quality just goes down. Not that I have seen anything bad from you, but it's just a general trend. Dribbble ...

It just makes sense.Most teams do use bright colors for alternates which it precisely why i think black would be a nice change of pace. Its sharp and looks good in action.

bohob Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 It looks like one of the jerseys they used to have. I would like to see the new numerals and old-timey Mr. Red on this. Also, try some piping.

I think most MLB teams would look pretty good with black alternates. They are just afraid to go there because it gets too hot in the summer, that's why they choose to rely on lighter colors, less heat-absorbant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the fact that they don't have black anywhere in there set and are actually using the TEAM COLORS has nothing to do with it?Did you somehow have a part in creating the current Mets' set, A's alts, and previous Royals uniforms? You seem to be pretty adomant about adding black where it's not particularly needed. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuckymack Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I'm pleasantly surprised. This looks WAY better than I thought it would. I especially like Mr. Redlegs on the sleeve, and the numbers and logo really 'pop' against that stark black background.Even though the team IS called 'The Reds'.... Sigs are for sissies.

Lol...I don't like black as an alternate jersey color. We see plenty of teams with just plain bad black alternate jerseys. To name a few: Jays, Athletics, Mets, Marlins (IMO, but I also think that a lot of people would agree with me). Really, baseball should just be home and away - not every team would have to have a gray road jersey, but some sets are fine until the alternate is introduced. See: Braves, Angels, Red Sox...

LMU Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Besides the fact that a black alternate for the Reds would be terrible, if this is supposed to be current, it would have to have the modern sleeve patch (the turn of the century mascot) and the current number/name font.

See: Braves, Angels, Red Sox...Thats exactly what i was getting it. Some alternate jerseys clearly just dont look right even though the have the team color. As an example I tihnk the Tigers could get away with a black alternate. Im not saying you need to change the hat or even the pants. Just a black alternate with the Olde English D in white. or maybe in navy outline in white. It would sell well and give the team a chance to expand their identity some.
