ThePreacher Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Ugly... Worst thing to happen to Los Angeles basketball since this.(not the athlete in the image - but rather that atrocious neckline...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Not even remotely ugly - it's actually a very classy modernized evolution of the uniforms they've used in the past, IMO. I do wish that the alt logo and the scripts were up higher on the uniforms, but it's a nice look overall. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePreacher Posted August 17, 2010 Author Share Posted August 17, 2010 They look like college jerseys... The remind me of these atrocities: THIS is what a Clippers uni should look like: NBA uniforms should look like tank-tops, and NOT t-shirts with the sleeves cut off. It's just gross.

See Red Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 My only issue is with how low everything is on the front of the jersey. Other than that I like 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Imperfect Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I for one like them. I know the 'LC' logo in the middle of the jersey looks a little awkward, but it may be the beginning of a new jersey style in the NBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Having the collar-insert logo so low as to appear floating in the middle, which in turn forces the script to be lower and smaller than it's supposed to be, is bad design. No way around it. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way around it.Agreed. That just looks so awkward to me. I'm also undecided on the side stripe, especially on how it terminates at the bottom of the shorts. On one hand, it does look different, but I can't tell if it's good or bad. Need to see more pics of it (and probably in action as well). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eRay Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 As has been said, these are just poorly designed, and I promise you they will either be fixed before this season or next offseason. They just look so awkward that everyone will notice. Also, with the home jersey: Dodgers influence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loogodude90 Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I like 'em, but I still think it was change for the sake of change. Overall they are just as plain and boring as their old set (which I didn't have much of a problem with).

BrySmalls Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Sometimes the Clippers wished they played like a mediocre Division I Basketball University. These are definitely middle of the pack jerseys; nothing more, nothing less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It Needs A Bow Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 THIS is what a Clippers uni should look like: NBA uniforms should look like tank-tops, and NOT t-shirts with the sleeves cut off. It's just gross.I completely agree with you. They look so awkward on, and their arms seem restricted. Other things I hate about it: the neckline and the placement of the text.But unfortunately, even with all of these things fixed, their uniforms would still be tragic and boring. I hope they remedy this soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Wolf Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 The LAC logo looks awkward. Other than that, they kind of just exist. Not really good, nor really bad. Just blah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawk36 Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 I think the problem is that they made such a big deal about their (1) new logo and (2) new uniforms. In reality, these were both refinements but nothing new.I believe if they wouldn't have made a big deal about it, we would have eventually noticed and appreciated the subtle refinements as a move forward. Instead, we were expecting something new, different, and now feel somewhat let down. PR problem but that's nothing new for the Clippers.

I know the 'LC' logo in the middle of the jersey looks a little awkward, but it may be the beginning of a new jersey style in the NBA. That's exactly what scares me. I think people like to hate on the Clippers just because they're the Clippers. Not at all. I'm a HUGE Lakers fan, but I've always admired the Clippers minimalist, classic and simple uniform design. Now that they've gone the way of Kentucky (and other unfortunate college teams), they finally look how they play: Horrible. Before they looked like a classy team that wasn't playing up to their uniforms' standard of excellence. Donald Sterling has now fixed that. Gross, just gross. So many things wrong with these unis... most points have been touched on here already like the striping on the shorts. Really? What the heck is that!?

SilverNRed Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Before they looked like a classy team that wasn't playing up to their uniforms' standard of excellence.

Glad I'm not alone on this. I wasn't sure how many people shared my opinion... However, I have noticed that people born in the 80's (and earlier) like myself enjoy the Lakers, Clippers, Pistons and 76ers duds... Those born in the 90's (bafflingly enough) enjoy such unis as the Thunder and bag on the brilliance that are the new GSW's unis. For shame.

tajmccall Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Not like god awful, but that script placement is pretty unforgivable. I mean its awkwardly low. I'd love to see someone lay ANY other authentic next to that jersey and compare. I bet its a good inch or two lower than the standard placement. Just looks weird.
