Thanks in advance if anyone does itI guarantee you that a white outline (purple and teal unis) and teal outline (home) on the numbers would make it 1000% better.I'm honestly thinking Adidas is being cheap.

truepg 733 Posted July 1, 2014 I believe it was more the proficiency of the designers rather than Adidas being cheap. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CDixonDesign 178 Posted July 1, 2014 i bet you guys complain about the bears navy jersey with orange numbers with no outlines...the horror.If the bears wore stripes with outlines, and a wordmark above it that was Orange with a glaring white outline, then yes. We probably would. Its the mix of outlined elements, and single color numerals I think most have an issue with. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

White stripes outlined the orange so numbers should be outlined white/orange. If no outlines on the stripes then ok with no outlined numbers. If it wasn't a throwback id be so mad. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heck, I even said I like them overall. The lack of an outline on the numbers is the one issue I have with these from an aesthetic perspective. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If a team supplies a design, it's executed as they provide it as long as the capabilities exist to replicate it. The only difference between single-color and multi-color numerals on a Rev30 jersey is the color of the outer twill layer. The construction is exactly the same no matter if it's a one-, two- or three-color number: a mesh centeral area satin-stitched to a twill perimeter. This is the first example I've seen in the NBA, though, where the twill perimeter is the same color as the number as opposd to the same color as the jersey background (the college jerseys were always like that).Can someone photoshop a white outline around the numbers on the away and alt?

I don't generally like the flipping of the fill and outline between the elements. I actually prefer the single-color numerals, though, if only because they are more unique and unexpected than treating them with an outline like the lettering. I like mixing single- and multi-colored elements, provided the single color element is the same color as the outline of the multi colored element. If it's the other way around, it looks unfinished to me (picture a a blue number outlined in gold, but just a plain blue name with no outline).For example, this looks good to me because the weight of the lettering works with the weight of the outline and feels like the proper finishing touch:But this feels unfinished, like the lettering is missing the outline. The scale relationship between the trim and the lettering is lost when the colors are flipped: 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
