capn89 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Very, VERY nice. Borderline perfection in terms of the Maple Leafs. About the ONLY thing I'd think about changing is the size of the cuff color. If everything else is going to be congruent, why not make the cuffs? Either shrink the blue on the white or enlarge the white on the blue. Really nice work on these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCap Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 These are FANTASTIC. I would buy the white version in a heartbeat. The only gripe I have is the "est. 1927"They've been known as the Maple Leafs since 1927, but the team was established in 1917.

The only gripe I have is the "est. 1927"They've been known as the Maple Leafs since 1927, but the team was established in 1917.Yeah that was the only qualm I had about this concept, I went back and forth on the date to put on there and ended up with '27. What do Leafs fans consider the beggining? The inception of the franchise or the first use of the name? Also, Mockba is right about the socks not matching anything. They never really have so I just decided to stick with them. To be honest, when I think Leafs uniforms the first thing that comes to mind is the socks. However I'm sure a two-striped sock would suffice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linus Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I consider 1917 the start as well...the NHL was formed in 1917 (Pretty sure it was 1917) and thats when the Blue Shirts came to be, then they were the Arenas, then St. Pats and now since 1927 they are the Leafs. They won the Cup in 1917-18 and they count that towards the # of cups the Franchise has won.But for your logo's sake, I see why you put Est. 1927, thats when the Maple Leafs became there official name so I see your reasoning. beLEAF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letterform Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Officially, the NHL team that played in Toronto in 1917 was a temporary franchise and is not connected to the Leafs. The Leafs franchise actually dates to 1918-19. The Leafs seem to remember things differently however. DEATH TO REEBOK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedy Posted February 1, 2010 Author Share Posted February 1, 2010 Looks like the old and new concepts seem to have gotten mixed up, feel free to send this to the graveyard mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
