speedy Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 It's been awhile since I've done any concepts around here so I figured I'd tackle something I've never done, the AHL. Just a forewarning, there may be a few rebrands but it'll mostly be redoing uniforms. We're starting off with the Marlies, I've done a concept similar to this for the big club a few years ago so I figured it to be the natural starting point.Not much else to say, everything is pretty self explanatory.C&C always appreciated.

aci Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Looks a little odd with the light blue only outlining the logo and nowhere else. I like the striping pattern you used, and the number on the pant leg is a nice touch, but maybe try adding the light blue outline to all the numbers, too? It might make the set look more cohesive (and further differentiate them from their parent club).

BigBubba Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Looks good, but I'd suggest doing something I wish they would do - utilise the light blue in the jerseys. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan33 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Very sharp looking set. The only thing bugging me is how the sleeve stripes taper to the seams of the edge cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportstar1212 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Looks good, but maybe you could utilize the light blue a bit more (maybe in the number outline, collar, and the thin stripes on the jerseys and socks). One note, in the AHL teams wear white at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedy Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 I figured the lack of double blue would be a hit around here, but the consensus seems to be that it's needed. I'll post an update soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedy Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 So here's the double blue Marlies. We all know the proper way to do a blue/blue hockey sweater is the U of Maine way OR the Pens original Winter Classic getup. Well, those have already been done, so I wanted something along those lines that can stand the test of time - even though in the AHL, that's kind of an oxymoron. If you can tell, I just modified my original Maple Leafs stripes to fit the demand and also work better with the Marlies logo.Upgrade? Downgrade? Speak up!

The_Admiral Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 You're gonna be so mad, but I prefer the original. The better way to have continuity between logo and sweater would probably be to drop the light blue from the logo. I say this because St. John's already has its parent team's double blue, so the Marlies should probably have their parent team's...single blue? ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
