UnclearInitial Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 While the Mavs current uniforms aren't bad by any means, that is a very early 2000's look. I wanted the Mavericks to have a Western look, while paying homage to their previous looks. I kept the current navy, brought back the green and added a sand color to make it more Western. I'm not sure about the logos, especially the primary. In my perfect world they'd have something very similar to FC Dallas, but trying to make a cow logo in Paint I failed spectacularly. I tried to bring back the M-Stetson, but I don't know if that is a suitable NBA primary logo. So I settled on a monogram, but it looked more like a secondary logo than a primary. While messing around with the shape of Texas once I realized that it would fit a shield really well, so, taking inspiriration from the Nets, a shield it was. Is it absolutely dreadful?For the uniforms, I originally had barbed wire trim, but since Mavericks are supposed to be free spirits, confining them in barbed wire wasn't such a good idea. Taking inspiration from a discarded Bobcats uniform and the original Mavs home look, I went for an asymmetrical three stipes look. From the championship uniforms I kept the off-center number and the star above the NOB. The third is more classical, but it keeps the three stripes.C&C please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancealot Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Norte dame anyone??? Besides the simmarities to ND I like it a lot, the scripts need to be taller and the front numbers need to match the rest of the letters, they aren't the dodgers.

NCCoachArete Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 The middle unis remind me of some the Jazz have worn in years past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcb05 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 The DM logo is a bit too reminiscent of the Brewers MB logo for my tastes. And I agree with the poster about that the letters seem "stretched" horizontally. They're too wide right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaha32 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 I like how the real Mavs actually don't have a cliche western font or look. The western theme is way too predictable and although I am not from Texas, I imagine that Texans have seen the western theme all too often.
