pflava Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 The Rangers current uniforms bug the crap out of me, because they have the potential to be great but end up missing the mark entirely. For one thing, the multiple wordmark outlines on the jersey are a mess and all that red and white around the blue ends up looking kind of purple to me. And the red dropshadow on the white T cap logo looks bush league. I do love the font they use, though, so I kept that.Most of you probably read the rumor about the possible Rangers changes on UniWatch - more red, "Texas" on the home and road, a red alternate. I went with that in coming up with this idea. Gone are the dropshadows and multiple outlines. I went with the red jersey wordmark because red looks better outlined in blue than blue does in red (and I like the way it pops out against all the blue trim). I also like the red-billed cap - it pulls the 3 colors together and is a nod to the Rangers past. And I know we'd never see stirrups, but the striping on these is meant to balance out the red in the uniform. The red alternate is there just because they mentioned a red jersey. It's nothing special.And so..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailz Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Nice work.... Not a fan of 2 tone hats in general, but this one is not so bad. Really like the red jersey, it's sharp!!! I hope they don't go through with the "Texas" thing on the home uni's.... I think that would be a faux pas.... The home jersey should always be the teams nickname... although if they do, I hope they do something like this. The only thing that seems a bit "off" is the solid blue lettering on the front... I dunno what you would do to change it, it just seems a little outta place.. all in all good job!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cappital92 Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Normally, you need to have the team name on the home jersey, but those Texans are really proud of their state, so it makes sense. http://www.wizardsxtra.com Is it the shoes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erlovepuck Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Good work overall, I like the simplification of the word mark. Maybe try to outline the 'T' in red on the cap to try to pick up the red button and bill? Just an idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BJBerthiaume Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I like the logo on the blue alternate and these look pretty sharp. I'm not a huge fan of striped socks though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pflava Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 Sorry to bump my own thread, but I added a version with red numbers to match the wordmark. I think this one looks better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
