_RH_ 631 Posted April 26, 2013 They're ok, but I fail to see how they improve over the previous version (apart from maybe the drop shadow). I wonder why the "5" doesn't get the rounded top left corner. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder why the "5" doesn't get the rounded top left corner.Because it's a 90-joint. If you look at the bottom left corner you'll see that it's rounded. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vmd9 100 Posted April 26, 2013 These dolphins are jumping like the logo.But doesn't look half as good as this one....and neither one is wearing a helmet! So the new logo is a definite upgrade. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TalktoChuck 528 Posted April 26, 2013 Thicken up the orange outlines and this is a great looking set. I love the white helmet/white face mask. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TruColor 647 Posted April 26, 2013 Viewing official artwork, I can now confirm 100% that Black is not a part of these uniforms (!). As if.I can also confirm the existence of a second pair of socks - like we saw yesterday, one of the pairs (to be worn with the Aqua pants) has a Blue stripe at the top. Plain Aqua with the White pants.Oh, and "MIAMI" (in Orange) is also placed on the inside collars of both jerseys.No alternate jersey provided.I'll post some examples later. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_RH_ 631 Posted April 26, 2013 Because it's a 90-joint. If you look at the bottom left corner you'll see that it's rounded.Pardon my ignorance, but aren't all the corners 90 degree angles? The 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, and zero appear to have rounded top left corners, so why not the 5? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nomad 15 Posted April 26, 2013 At least it appears that they'll be wearing white shoes. Always a good thing (in my opinion), but especially with these unis. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jt0323 113 Posted April 26, 2013 alsohttp://www.miamidolphins.com/news/article-1/Marino-New-Logo-Is-About-Tradition/833326b3-201f-4a3d-b0f0-533f362082eb As with the redesigned logo the modification to the logotype brings back the original aqua and orange color scheme while updating the lettering from a script design to a custom design type style with curved edges inspired by the fins of an actual dolphin. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GFB 2,127 Posted April 26, 2013 Because it's a 90-joint. If you look at the bottom left corner you'll see that it's rounded.Pardon my ignorance, but aren't all the corners 90 degree angles? The 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, and zero appear to have rounded top left corners, so why not the 5?Look at your post. The sharp joint is crucial in the depiction of the number 5 in English. The numerals 0, 2, 3, 6, 8, & 9 are all curved, and 1, 4, & 7 don't have a 90 degree joint in the upper left corner (they either end or avoid it by running on an angle).I didn't design the type (personally, I think intentional asymmetric stylings are dumb), but my guess is that if they rounded that joint, it would look more like backwards 2 than a 5. Similar to the way no one flips a P around and calls it a 4. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chawls 1,239 Posted April 26, 2013 A lot of people here seem to think these new uniforms are dull. I'd rather a team's uniform be too dull than too ambitious. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St Louis Cardinals 289 Posted April 26, 2013 Still looks like the Dolphins to meAwesome that Marino's uniform has the detail his original uniform use to.thats because he's wearing his old uniform, not a newly made one. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danmerz 3 Posted April 27, 2013 I'm sorry to vent this on here but it does have something to do with the uniforms. The current ownership and management has DESTROYED this franchise little by little until this is a brand is not recognizable! I saw at least a half dozen designs that amateur graphic artist had done and they were 10 times better. I cannot believe a brand name like Nike designed these and call this something they are proud of. I thought that they would design something like the Vikings did with a mix of old and new. I don't know how many people are in agreement with me but that is my opinion. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frenchie 135 Posted April 27, 2013 I friggin' love the colours and the simplicity of the Dolphins uniform, they scream "Jimmy Johnson is our coach" But that font is the FUGLIEST EVER... especially the 1 and 7 ... which could be a problem, considering... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tubby34 228 Posted April 27, 2013 Now that I have a clear view of the full uni sets, I hate how orange is nearly obselete just about everywhere.They just don't look like the Dolphins anymore. Just a lesser franchise that uses a bland teal & white color scheme.Really? Because this has looked like every single last one of their prior uniforms....Would you rather them go modern instead of traditional like they have always been? Orange has never been THAT blatant in our color scheme as you guys are making it out to be..or better yet, compare ALL of their previous sets to this and tell me if it still doesn't look like the DolphinsYou obviously have not looked at the last uniform have you. The orange was much thicker & really popped now everything looks boring.I am happy they don't look like clowns but very uninspired look here.The helmet is the worst hit because from most of the pics you can barely see the orange on the stripeThe number font is the worst of the bunch those ones are awful.Still looks like the Dolphins to meI love how Dan is wearing the 1991 Jersey, 1984 Pants, and the 2013 Gut. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
