Fox Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 bummer!!! but onwis97 I agree with you that a change to the old script and a overhaul of the identity would suit them well, I love the concept posted. I am all for it!!I disagree. While some changes to scripts, etc. could clean up and improve the Twins looks, I don't think there's any need for an overhaul. IMO the Twins are one of the best-looking teams in baseball right now.well you do have a valid argument, they do look nice, but as a twins fan, I think the primary whites should of been retired with the metrodome, while they do look ok, the retro just fits better with the team. I maybe dont mean total overhaul, but maybe just in the script by making it look like their retro one.Yep. I think we actually agree a lot more than we realized. I think something like BMac's concept would be perfect for the Twins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lich0037 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 To me, the whites (regardless of the minor wordmark tweak) just scream "Metrodome." Take a look at all the limestone (am I correct, Twins fans?) architecture throughout Target Field during a game in which they wear the cream-colored throwbacks. It all just meshes so perfectly. The Twins have entered a new outdoor era, almost like a second Metropolitan Stadium era if you will. I can't emphasize enough how much better I think the Twins would look with the cream unis as the primary homes given the new era and the surroundings.Yes, a majority of the stadium is built out of limestone, so you are correct. I agree with your post, Mojo Maniac, about switching to the cream colored jerseys full time. I think it would be cool putting the new wordmark on the cream jerseys. Kind of a combo platter of new and old. However, I've heard they are returning to white/blue pinstriped home uniforms for 2012. The cream color jerseys will worn again on Saturday home games and special occasions.I thought of it and decided it would look awful, but I'd like to actually see it before judging.I thought I would mock up what I was thinking so people could judge or comment...Concept 1or....Concept 2 Sports Branding and Design | The Minnesota High School Helmet Project | Eric's Helmet Collection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnum Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Yeah I agree, Concept 1 would be great as their home primary. The navy > red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Concept 1 looks great...based on the last 25 years, I always envisioned the cream jersey with that script in red (yuck). But that looks pretty good...I like that wordmark in blue. I am not as fond of #2...I think the blue looks best with cream. Plus I like the Twins in pinstripes.

winghaz Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I, too, like Concept 1, but I'd like to see numbers on the front of the jerseys and the name in the back above the numbers.And the Twins must wear pinstrips. I see the non-pinstriped look and I think of some awful years for the Twins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
