ColeJ Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 i've heard a lot of people whine and moan about the blue jays new image... about the excessive use of black, and constant tweaks to salvage public opinion, as well as other complaints...well, i decided to whip up my own batch of jays unis. i ditched the black completely, and switched it to a navy blue... they ARE the BLUE jays.. i tried to simplify the scripts on the front, because i don't really like the idea of everything on there being 3D...it's pretty basic, but most baseball jerseys ARE. i appreciate any comments you can give me... forgive me if there are any baseball fasion faux-pas in this concept, because i'm really not much of a baseball fan but i tried.

CZzyzx41 Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Dude that's like a million times better than they currently have. I love the concept of the gray roads and the midnight navy alternates. I like the sky blue alternates and while the white cap is cool, I'd rather see it on retail shelves than on the ballfield. -DanielCheck Out My Podcast!

Starchild Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Simply put, I love 'em. The home and road are great, as are the batting practice and alternate.Normally, I sorta I like the inclusion of black, but here, you really save the Blue Jays... I'm one of few, apparently, who like their new logo more than their previous identity, although I think replacing, well, blue with black was just wrong... but what you've done is what the Blue Jays organization should have. Superb.Only I would toy around with is the font used for the numbers... it looks a little, out of place... other than that, just great work. I think a tear just dropped down my cheek.

NJTank Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Not bad those are much better. Although I would like to see a blue hat as an alt or road hat thrown in too. The uniforms are much better tehn the real ones . www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCap Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 what they had was 101x better then what they went to. these are 100x better. u made the current identity look wicked! i didnt think it was possible, but u did it. the best part is that it has blue in it. send these to the jays before its to late!

winters in buffalo Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Excellent work! I like the simplified lettering - much, much nicer. The one thing I'd change is the hat logo. You 2D'd the jersey letters but left the hat 3D. I'd either change it to 2D, or - even better - just use the bird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winters in buffalo Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Hey, with any luck, these could make it in to the Jays' rotation. I don't think they have any new designs planned for the week of May 9th-15th yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sacker12 Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 I would add a solid navy hat for the alternate uni, and I'll think of something for the BP uni. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epper Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 these are amazing, nearly PERFECT jays jerseys! theres only a couple minor things i would change:Home jersey is perfectaway jersey: navy brim on cap, and navy socksalt: light blue brim on capi've always thought that away jerseys should be darker, hence the navy changes. simply awesome work though. if the jays wore these, they'd have one of the best looks in the league IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chazberg Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Nice work, these are actually a lot like something I was working on. I'm not a big fan of the navy hat with the white brim or the white BP hat, but these are much better than the current new look. charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Clemente Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 I would have left the multi-shaded silver script on the alternate. Then it's be a perfect for sure.Then again, if I were to do it, I would have left the sulti-shaded silver script, just outlined in blue, with blue numbers and blue stripes on the sleeves, but what you've done here is fantastic.--Roger "Time?"

Braden Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 I'm gonna be the only one here to say this, but I don't like it. I feel that this is really ripping off the Orioles. Getting rid of the graphite overall is not a good move IMO. I love the graphie hats, I'm wearing one as I type this. The 3D looking script need to be brought back.I think the Jays need only minor changes to their unis to make them look good. This is just too much for me, ESPECIALLY with the white BP hat with the old jays logo revival. I hate to be honest, but I think it's awful.Sorry guys. I just don't think this works.
