Billy B Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Chief Wahoo is a terribly designed logo, regardless of whether or not it's a racist caricature:Just look at it. The terrible line weights in the teeth (which don't even connect fully) and the other really bad attempts at detailing in the feather and the eyes make for a horrendous logo. It may be that some details didn't translate well when the logo was originally digitized in the 90's, but come on. If they had to keep him (which I hope they don't), at least modernize him.It was first used in 1951, for that reason alone it is wonderfully designed.Find another character logo that old that looks as good.There probably aren't many because they've all been updated to not look like they were designed 60 years ago.

illwauk Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I like white outlines on grey baseball jerseys. (Tigers, Rockies...)So do I. Especially when white is a team color (ie red and white, blue and white, etc.), I think it looks just fine.Pretty much... it works great for the Royals, but for the Tigers it just looks cluttered and unnecessary.

I like it on the tigers, I think it makes the script and numbers stand out. Same with the angels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does bother me, is excessive white space around a wordmark instead of proper chain stitching. The Phillies, for example, use more white outline than is necessary.

BeardyBruin Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I don't like any of the Oregon football uniforms, especially their wildly vivid names.I love grey facemasks. But any other form of unnecessary grey on sports uniforms look awful to me. I love the Christmas color scheme- bright red and a darker shade of green. I think the MLB All-Star game should have AL and NL generic uniforms but team-designated caps.Might not be unpopular but the Mavs' throwback look is sooooo much better than their current look. A modernised version of it with navy blue instead of royal would look beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks jarring on the Tigers because there's no white on their road caps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanMcD29 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I'm apparently the one person who thinks Utah's new football uniforms are actually pretty good. Could use a little less detail on the mountains on the sleeves, but I do like the idea. It's like everything's either too plain or too out there for people, then Utah does something in between, and people still hate it.

Light blue and silver just don't work on their own. They need that black to provide some much-need contrast. I actually do think that if the Lions fixed a few minor flaws (super skinny helmet stripe, super wide sleeve stripes, number font) they could have the best look in the league.

mafiaman Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 This is better than the blue version of the home/away.Black, copper, and white - with the only barely-noticeable blue being on the sleeves - and that could easily be mistaken for black. The Capitals logo I actually like - the colors? Awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
