MJWalker45 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 . Just turrible.There are still a bunch of big differences. That twisty thing on the sides is gone as is the blue yoke thing. It's really confusing since only on uniform pic is actually correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cranium Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 These Georgia Tech unis are a hot mess. Helmet's kinda cool. That's about it.I completely agree. What a mish mash of yuck going on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cranium Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 GT's side panels are even worse than the promo shots. What an awful template. With the piping, etc., it looks like a template from 6 or 7 years ago with bubble wrap filler. By far my least favorite DI uni. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joegalvan Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 not a fan. i will say that the final product is way better than the promo photos. there are just too many disjointed design elements, imo. and the lack of consistency in the color palette is ridiculous.more pics below. they're huge, so i put them in a spoiler. kind of like a uniform design potluck. a little of this... a little of that. like a super charged version of Colorado States uniforms from last season. with some Seahawks numbers bolted on.bonus pic:found this while looking at CSU's uniforms for comparison. the girls VB kit looks vaguely similar to this new GT set, lol.

IceCap Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I'm not trolling - I've always wanted GT to use a honeycomb pattern somewhere on their uniforms.It's the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. Yellow Jackets do not produce honey. They live in hives, yes, but "honeycomb" and "yellow jackets" don't really go together as a concept. It's like when people suggest the Jazz and Hornets switch names because "Utah is the beehive state!"It only contributes to the overall dumbing down of the populace.

wILL-INI Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 Ok first of all, we've all decided the "honey"comb effect is associated scientifically with the yellow jacket. Science! you can't argue its not. Now im late on this GT debacle. I dig the helmets, the jersey... hella overkill. I think what really just runs this joke into the ground is 3D effect in honeycomb. I like the simple honeycomb, on the helmet. but this effect (on the number espc) look AWFUL!!! Sleeves, undershirt, side panels maybe. Then call it a day. VT as normal looks amazing! "Classic" does not mean it gets a free pass for being bad design.Portfolio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddball Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 What's killing Ga Tech's uniforms and a lot of uniforms, is the lack of good design principles. I understand you want to do something good, and I understand you want to do something to be seen, but good design is not over the top and in your face like this. If they wanted to do a honeycomb pattern, then do it subtly. It's not just Ga Tech's uniforms. It's Minnesota's maroon numbers and Northwestern's numbers with the brick pattern that can be seen because it's so obvious. A good to great design would have these elements and keep them subtle. While I like what Oregon's done over the past few years, I still say it would be so much better if they did everything subtly. To me that would make it an awesome design.
