Cola Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 i think this looks fantastic. i enjoyed the bright green rather than the forest green. thought at first of the bright green or maybe a bright yellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarred Revolver Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Lovely kits! Great job on the crest as well! Maybe make the rose red so it stands out a bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleujayone Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 The only thing I'd add is red to the rose on the crest. It doesn't have to be anywhere else on the uniform. Also since brown is the dominate color, might I suggest UPS as the sponsor? We all have our little faults. Mine's in California. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrangeBalloonCoast Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 FWIW... I think you could use the color of the rose instead of the green, that way avoiding using a color similar to what Seattle's team uses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAB Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 This looks really nice, I like the "earthy" colors in this set and it works surprisingly well on a soccer jersey. Good job.BTW, d00a00v00e00o- just edit your original post instead of making an entire new one. It's really not necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NSL Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Mmph.....I'm not a fan of the color scheme, considering the historical value of the team, and location of the adidas logos on the shorts. I've always personified the Timbers with yellow and green, but the overall presentation is great-looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AAO Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Updated #3 is much better than the others, no need to add red just for the rose. My only gripe would have to be unifying the wordmarks to have the same typeface. Portland should not be in a different typeface than timbers. The third wordmark on the collar seems a bit unnecessary, that's 3 different typefaces in one brand. The axe is definitely appropriate, but what about some trees somewhere, whether in a secondary or worked into the primary?

JayLo1112 Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I like this a lot. One thing I must say though is that the positioning of the rose looks awkward to me and it shouldn't be on top of the axe, but maybe on the handle so you focus more on the axe head rather than the rose.

I think it would work well as secondary, though.I agree with you about that the same typeface would be better. About the third wordmark, well, I was just following the recent trend here in Europe to to write a phrase or the name of the club (inside or outside the collar) in a different typeface.

Burmy Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 AWESOME design!Only thing I'd change is one of the two primary colors...the combo looks a little Philadelphia Union-y. Then again, since the two play 2856 miles apart... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eRay Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 You clearly are figuring out the color side of this brand, so I will stay out of that since I am a bit color blind. I like the idea behind the crest, but think the rose looks out of place. I could live with it though, because like most on these boards I understand what it means. A lot of average people wouldn't though, IMO. The only things that really bother me are the text on the crest, and the detached half soccer ball on the top. I don't like the different treatments of the words in the crest, or the use of Birch Std. I think you can do much better. The soccer ball just doesn't need to be there and look awkward to me. Also, the axe looks a little...slim, fancy, weak, shiny, effeminate...needless to say the rose isn't helping with that at all. I'd just lose all the highlights and make the handle thicker, but maybe making it appear more jagged and used could work as well. IDK, just ideas. I like the idea behind it though.

Mayor Daily Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 This is probably just me for but for a rich color like brown I'd love to see the white away paired with brown shorts and white socks, and the brown home with the white shorts and white socks, maybe with striped socks...

I like the idea behind it though.I c-o-m-p-l-e-t-e-l-y agree in every single aspect of your comment, really. But the axe, well, my intention was to mantain a link with the old look of the club, that's why I didn't touch that much the old axe logo.P.S. Thank you for spending a lot of time on my concepts, I really appreciate it. I understand them like a demonstration of huge regard. Thanks again.

afarough Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I may be in the a very small minority but I loved the original set to the point where I thought maybe just a bit more white in the jerseys (number outlines or some of the piping) would be enough to make it perfect lol. Love how unique the colours looked, and thought maybe yellow instead of green if people feel there needs to be a shining colour in the set.

MADVILLAIN Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 The one thing that really bugs me is the font used on the back of the collar. Not sure what you were going for there. Also, would love to see a green home kit and a gold away kit, going for tradition and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get all bent out of shape over a suggestion. Haha it's not like I said change it to green, DAMMIT!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
