cohenj21 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Dodgers look solid, not much changed but the blue alt is something they should use often. Did you try white numbers on those? I know they always have mismatched numbers but just something to consider. Actually there's nothing to consider. The Dodgers' red front numbers are an iconic uniform feature in baseball, right up there with the birds-on-the-bat and the Yankees' pinstripes. The front numbers should never be any color other than red, not even have an outline. Besides with white numbers they'd look like the Royals.Yeah, you are right about them looking like the Royals. I didn't realize that it was so deep in their history, but I did some research after I saw this and you are certainly right. My bad, keep the numbers as they are.

A white outline would help greatly and wouldn't mess with tradition. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason, a detail that small made it look more like a batting practice jersey than a real alternate.--------------Also, the most helpful thread for doing an MLB series^just wanted to put the link there so I don't have to keep searching for it.

Fox Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Five jerseys and six different looks may seem like too many. But if you ask me, you can't have enough good-looking uniform combinations. With the A's, I wanted to utilize all their good-looking elements. That means I have three jerseys with A's on the chest, but I kept the scripts around for a home alternate and the road primary jersey. Here's a rundown of the main changes:-Went with a yellow-green-yellow double-piping style based off the placket piping of the current gold alternate-Home jersey features classic hat, placket piping, and A's on the chest. The yellow alternate is an inverted version of the home white. The green jersey is all-puprose. I went with yellow piping and a white A to match the cap and avoid a piping clash with the pants piping pattern.-Cream alternate with Athletics script and front numbers. Since a new pair of pants was needed anyway for the cream jersey, I figured it wouldn't be a problem to use single green piping. The cap is green with a yellow A, like their current road cap.-Primary road jersey uses Oakland script. Solid green cap as well.-Primary logo is A's in green outlined in yellow.I thought that the cream alternate wouldn't work with yellow and cream together but I actually love the look of it.Any comments or suggestions are appreciated for this concept, or any of the concepts in this thread. I'm looking for a lot of feedback as another round of updates are coming up very soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cohenj21 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 The cream alternate is my favorite of the jerseys in this set, I am surprised by how much I like the cream and yellow. The one thing I would suggest would be to not use the double placket piping on the green alt unless you want to use white. I feel like double yellow piping on a green jersey is a little too loud for a baseball jersey. Other than that though, really nice set here. "Those who believe in telekinetics, raise my hand."

sportstar1212 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 The A's look very nice. Though I'm not crazy about the double yellow piping on the green alt. Still a nice set nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBubba Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 The cream alt looks better than I thought it would. I think the gold alt would look better with single green piping, as the white just clutters it up (that's probably the only flaw with their current set). Other than that, the set looks really nice.

Fox Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Been a while since I've updated this thread. With baseball season right around the corner, I present to you my take on the Houston Astros:Comments? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsaline97 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I'd drop the orange hat/sleeves/socks for the road grey. It just looks muddled and drab, IMO. Wonder what the blue alt would look like with orange accents? I dunno, just a thought. But I really like this. Glad to see more concepts in this series.

AlexWilson Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I agree with dsaline97 here. I like the way this looks, but something is just not right about that orange road, and can we see orange for the navy alt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pittsburghsports16 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I'd say you should change the piping. Orange as the outside piping conflicts with your script (outline in navy) and numbers (also navy). Good job standardizing everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmitch999 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Reds - Have you considered replacing black with a dark blue (i.e. #0c2950)? Also, the primary looks odd with the new font.Astros - The orange on the road doesn't seem to fit. Orange and grey together isn't all that good in baseball.

dsaline97 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Reds - Have you considered replacing black with a dark blue (i.e. #0c2950)?I'm sure the last thing he wanted to do was add another rwb team into the MLB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted March 3, 2013 Author Share Posted March 3, 2013 Blue alternate with orange accents. I didn't like the look of it, especially with grey pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexWilson Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I like the orange socks with the white pants, but the top doesn't work for me either. Maybe make that white? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsaline97 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Hmmm... Maybe just use the blue cap, but orange sleeves and socks? The orange hat does look goofy. I can see what you were saying now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotkobgo Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Honestly, if the Blue Jays roll on out with that in 12', I will jump for joy(over a uniform? wow, loser). Nice work. The piping looks good for all uniforms. 10/10.Yeah, they did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted July 3, 2013 Author Share Posted July 3, 2013 Even though it's been a while, I really want to get around to finishing this series. The White Sox really stumped me but I'm ready to roll out with my newest concept.For the primary home, I stuck with the current look which is solid. The home alternate is solid white with a white cap and white socks. While black socks are the better option full time, I wanted an alternate look where the ChiSox can really emphasize white. There is also a black alternate uniform which can be used at home or on the road. It has a throwback block Chicago script which I personally love. The primary logo is the baseball diamond with the Sox cap logo in the center.I'm interested to see what you guys think about this set. After this, I'm going through the league for one final update. Suggestions for any team's concepts are welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted July 3, 2013 Author Share Posted July 3, 2013 As I said, I'm looking for feedback on all of my previous concepts for a final round of updates which will take place in a new thread.
