evanmaldonado Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I was a pretty big fan of the Marlins logo and uniforms when they came out. But the more I see them on TV, the more I'm starting to dislike them. I honestly cannot say why, but there's just something about them on the field that seems off. Am I the only one feeling this way?I just don't like the giant cap logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-kj Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I, of course, think the old logo was miles better, but there is something very interesting about the full marlin in the middle of this line.Tron cycles humping.

Am I the only one feeling this way?I agree, probably because black and orange are a bit overdone. They need the blue hats that Tubby34 has. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adding the blue that is already on the "M" and the abstract marlin on their logo would help their uniforms. The Pike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCall Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I think if they had made the marlin closer to that full-bodied one, or even more like the first one with the 2 marlins, in place of the one they used, it would've been better. I've come around on their identity, but the marlin itself still bugs me. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratesfan16 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 1) Ah, you will be missed teal.2) Not great but not bad actually. It has potential. I think it would look great on a cap.3) It just looks like there should be more than an "m" there. If you're going to be abstract like that, at least have a purpose. It looks like an "h" and an "n" could form to make an "M", but what sense does that make? There isn't even a Marlin there. 4) Wow, I love that logo a lot. That's what I was thinking the logo would be when we were all still speculating the rumors. It make not be very "Marlin-like", it does look like a Neon Tetra, but it's very nice.5) Mariners "Trident M logo" gone bad.6) Microsoft?7) 1990's version of their current logo.8) Ugly as **** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve03Merc Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 That second from the left logo reminds me of something transportation based. Like I would see it on an airplane, or the side of an 18 wheeler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-kj Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 That second from the left logo reminds me of something transportation based. Like I would see it on an airplane, or the side of an 18 wheeler.They all look like they were trying to design a logo for a mall or a transit system. Only the full-bodied marlin in the middle looks decent for a team logo. Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

Firefly Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 The "Miami Metro" logo looks like it could used as a basis for a Astros wordmark. Someone get on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriffinM6 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Marlins wore orange socks with the black cap tonight. It looks ugly AF. They should use the orange socks with the orange caps only. Linky Winky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightSun Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 it looks even more odd with the black under shirt.Marlins haven't worn the orange cap yet. It would look so much better than the black cap as their home cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlinfan Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Loved the orange socks with home whites tonight. Pair that with the orange cap and that's a winner. 1997 | 2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian E Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 i caught the orange socks on a game break during the mets game, and they jumped right off the screen. very sharp. i agree with the last two posters: orange hat and socks at home. personally, i don't think there's any use for the black hat, but that's probably just me.
