Spearhead Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Would you consider the star on the Dallas Cowboys' jerseys, 1960-64, logoish or simply a geometric pattern?Obviously not the first logo on a sleeve, but an interesting question.I don't think the old NFL Dallas Texans actually wore that patch on game jerseys, but I could be wrong.

andrewharrington Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Didn't the Chicago Cardinals wear a double C sleeve logo at one point?They did. It wasn't placed up near the tricep like we normally think of a 'sleeve logo' being (down lower by the forearm), but a sleeve logo is a sleeve logo, and I think that's the new leader for earliest example of one.It was worn in 1921 for sure, possibly earlier.

Gothamite Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 You can see a representation here (upper left):Here's the 1994 throwback version, with the logo moved up to the upper arm: The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSky Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Those Falcons throwbacks are waaaaay overrated. Hard to top these, IMO:Logos and stripes don't work well together IMO. Like the Packers when they had the G and the stripes...naw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illwauk Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Those Falcons throwbacks are waaaaay overrated. Hard to top these, IMO:Yup. I remember being excited by the switch to black when I was younger, but looking back, these were so underrated. Although I suppose you could argue that, from a branding perspective, they're too much like the Bulldogs (red shell, red jersey, grey pants).Logos and stripes don't work well together IMO. Like the Packers when they had the G and the stripes...naw.I think they can work (see: Cowboys blues), but many times they don't (see: early 90s Cardinals). I'm sort of on the fence about these, but given how good the rest of the uniform looks, I can live with 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
