TFoA Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 Well, who remembers when the Lakers slightly updated their uniforms by adding trim on the sides and adding trim to the numbers... Well this is the same kind of update for the Celtics, who even though they have an INCREDIBLE tradition, they need an update... But nothing of a wild, change everything sort, just a slight change...HomeAwayComments are welcomeBut please, if you must unleash the on this one, be light with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 I like the idea. unfortunately, i don't like it for the Celtics....frankly, it's too Laker-like to ever fly. it'd be sort of like the Leafs wearing a barber pole jersey.

STL FANATIC Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 I think you MIGHT be right about needing a small update, but I don't think this is it. I don't mind what they have now, but if they were to update, just extend the double stripes up the side of the jersey. If they wanted they could also go to the wishbone cut.

VandyDelphia Mike Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 The idea of updating the Celtics' look is a fine one. The execution, here, though, leaves something to be desired. The numbers are too large for the jersey, and the font used for the name on the back is neither consistent with the Celtics wordmark on the front, nor the standard collegiate block that you'd find on the Knicks, Hawks, Clippers, Suns, or Sonics (to name a few).The folks in Boston probably had enough of a fit when they put a shamrock on the waistband. At least you didn't fall into the latest trend of putting a mini-logo above the name on the back.

Chazberg Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 Kidding. It's not bad, but it is a little too Lakeresque for me. I think that collar is being a little overused. charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 I think the Celtics could update the look by adding a small touch of another color, whether it's black or gold. They do have gold as part of the warmups, so it wouldn't be breaking out of history. I think if done almost inconsicuously black could add a little bit of depth to the jersey and striping (very minimal, even less than what the KC Royals use now). There is only so much you can do as a monochromatic team. Even the Lakers added white to the scheme, and it didn't compromise the integrity of what they had. If they went black and green, they still would have an original color scheme in the league, while adding a lot of gold may make them look too much like Seattle.

chapi Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 i think the celtics could use alternate jerseys (like the black ones nike released).this concept i don't like to much. it's basically added stripes and they don't look good. maybe small leafs (like the alternate logo) on the sides like the stars on the all star jersey last year would be better www.dap-studio.pl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicfurth Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 This is actually a nice idea. I like the green going up the uni on the home, but I don't like the white on the away darks, and the stripes are too thick. I suggest a coupla things...(1) Thin the stripe; not too much, just a little.(2) Have no stripe on the away, but outline a fake stripe in white like the Mavs do, like this...That's all my nitpicking. I think your concept definitely has potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
