Gothamite Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I like the light blue and orange. Not only is it a great, vibrant color combination not used in the majors, it hearkens back to the original Marlins. Still wish we could have seen this guy back again, though.

eRay Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 The logo is a nice sentiment. Like, it's nice that they tried something outside the box and fresh. But honestly, where is that Marlin coming out of and where is it going? To me this looks a bit like the Buffaslug bred with the OKC Thunder logo...yet somehow y'all like it. Maybe because it's different, it sort of works for you? I'm not on board yet, but honestly, I'm not bailing on it either. Where they go next will make my decision easier.

CanesCop86 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 i like the blues on the old Miami Marlin with the dazzle looking light blue.I noticed that the Blue in the logo is slightly darker then the stadium logo. I think the light blue would look alittle better.Showtime can you confirm if the logo on the hat is going to use the Dazzle silver or is it a flat gray like that picture.Edit: eRay thats what i was thinking, another buffaslug design. im still undecided on it.

rmackman Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 According to the people in this thread yeah,.I like the way the marlin is designed in that one. To be honest as a Marlin fan, i would be kind of disappointed if they use the same style marlin and look after all this talk of distancing the new team from the old.See this bothers me. I don't WANT to distance the new team from the old. To me it's the same team. You should never forget where you came from...especially if you won two World Series championships.

The management were pushing that this is a new team so i kinda got used to the idea. I actually had a pretty cool concept in my head with the rainbow theme.. Im hoping for some Turn back the clock days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eRay Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Made some tweaks in 2 seconds to try to improve this thing sitting before me. Not trying to jack the thread or anything, just offering solutions to SOME of the things I dislike about this. If you want this removed, I'll remove it. Not a new guy looking to plug himself. Isn't this slightly better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe because it's different, it sort of works for you? Not at all. If the Buffaslug was this abstract, I wouldn't have hated it as much as I did. But that was trying to have it both ways, with just enough details to make me realize that he was missing his legs. This reduction works so much better. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

RedSox44 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I found this what i believe to be the NEW Marlins logo and what not... Wondering if anybody has the logo slick or style guide from the MLB, i'm sure somebody has access to that site... Wow, that's actually not bad at all. I'll reserve judgement until the full set is released, but the hat logo is looking good.Not a fan. Don't like the M, don't like the colors.

CanesCop86 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Thirds on the alt cap with just the Marlin. Im sure that is going to happen somewhere down the line if not immediately. I wish we could get an answer on how many game jerseys and game caps there are going to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZapRowsdower8 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I assume the cap logo will only be the M without the marlin, correct? If so, I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
