IceCap Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Australia's easily the best of the bunch. It's a great use of national imagery and colours. Israel's is also pretty sweet, I'll have to pick one up. The Czech Republic's design is pretty creative too. The designs that I'm not fond of would be Germany, China, and the Netherlands. Germany's is inoffensive but bland. The German eagle is simple enough that it could have worked as a cap logo. China just looks strange using an old English C. A more contemporary C design would work, but I would prefer it if they used actual Chinese script as their cap logo.The Netherlands should only use a N. "Netherlands" is a single word, so using a NL to represent it kind of flies in the face of how cap monograms are supposed to work. It would be like it Italy used an IL monogram logo.

The_Admiral Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Yeah, but they use "NL" as an abbreviation a lot, so I guess it's like the Angels' old "CA" hat, kindasorta? ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSox44 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Can't wait to see the British, French and Brazilian caps.I guessing that Great Britain will probably keep their existing hat with the 'Swinging Lion'. You can see it here..http://www.britishba...r-national-teamNot bad, but I would've preferred an interlocking "GB" or "UK". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be like it Italy used an IL monogram logo."Netherlands" literally means "Low Countries" in Dutch, and, despite it being one word, is virtually two. Many Germanic languages (English excepted) combines words (example: Volkswagen in German. "Volks" and "Wagen" are both individual words meaning "people's" and "car", but they were combined.) I believe "Nederland" is the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
