BRYWHIT Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 hornets reportAccording to this thread the hornets will ditch the gold, use the " Fluer de bee" logo as primary, change teal to more blue and add pinstripes. Not a fan of pinstripes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Just to clarify, it says lose the gold uniforms. Not necessarily the gold altogether.I love the Fleur de Bee. Hope that part is true. The pinstripes, not so much.We'll see - this is a thirdhand rumor from unidentified sources within the organization. Could be right, could be wrong. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

hecticbro Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I really like their color scheme (even though they use teal). It fits the city. Plus, that bee logo is awesome. I detest pinstripes.If anything, they should ditch the teal uniforms and get purple ones instead, using teal and gold as trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I detest pinstripes.If anything, they should ditch the teal uniforms and get purple ones instead, using teal and gold as trim.That would make them look too much like the Lakers. I say leave the teal, in fact the colors as is, change up the uniforms (NO pinstripes, though) and make the Fleur de Bee the primary. I actually wouldn't mind seeing a little more of a greenish teal used, but to leave it the way it is would be okay. I'd just like to see the wordmarks and uniforms reflect New Orleans a little better. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SenatorJake Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 See... I think yellow is a good colour for them because hornets are yellow (& black).Hornets are not teal & purple. If they are, you have bigger problems than sports uniforms to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmejia Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I guess I'm in the minority, but I really like the Hornets current uni set. The yellow set, with teal and purple, works well for a New Orleans franchise. This could be a big mistake if they were to win a title this season, then follow it up with an identity switch.

BRYWHIT Posted May 1, 2008 Author Share Posted May 1, 2008 St. Louis Rams, anyone?Yea I really dont mind a tweak. Im happy with what they have now, not even upset with the gold unis. Hopefully this will be more of switching logos like getting rid of the hexagon H and using the FDB for the center court and uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winghaz Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 The Fleur de Bee really is fantastic. It incorporates the city and the name in a very nice way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switch the Jazz and the Hornets, because Utah is the Beehive State and they got jazz music in New Orleans.

TFoA Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I'm not surprised that the Fleur-de-Bee is reportedly going to be the new primary. I kinda inferred that that's what it would be once I saw that their Southwest Division banner had that logo on it.Nice decision. Fleur-de-Bee > Hugo.

ColeJ Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 probably not the right place to mention this, but "fleur-de-bee" pisses me off for some reason.a bee is NOT a hornet. that would be like the detroit lions coming up with a logo that is a play-on-words for tiger. it's just a stretch to me, and it's annoying.
