St Louis Cardinals Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 theres alredy been a topic on this, and it has been discussed in the nfl uniform thread. regardless, i really liked the old one, dont know why they had to go to generic garbage #9 LSU vs. TCU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hat Boy Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I believe the previous article stated the new wordmark would be used in the endzones. Do we know whether or not this will be under the collar on the uniform? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkatron101 Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I think it is a solid wordmark, but they need to change the logo while they are at it. I did a concept for a high school that was ripping off the pats logo. I certainly wouldn't mind if New England adopted it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdu Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 IMO looks like a modern western font and therefore doesn't work with the Patriots identity. Must've used the same designed the Jags did: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 new wordmark is crap.old one is classic, works perfect with logototally unique and awesomenew wordmark is cliche and overe-mbellished. garbaggio! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AAO Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I don't think the new wordmark is to be used without the Patriot at the bottom. They messed up the underlining curve. The 'TRI' in Patriots is just scaled and not along the actual arching of the wordmark. Lazy. And it's not even a difficult thing to do.

And IMO, even repositioned as it was, it still looks somewhat awkward.Personally, I'm not a fan of script lettering for football. Excluding UCLA, it just never looks like football, to me... baseball, yes. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a pretty significant indicator of a bad design. The new wordmark can't help but be an improvement. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

However, I'm still not sold on the one they just came out with. I would have loved to see an updated version of this beauty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sluggermatt15 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 The top left Patriots wordmark on devilray2k1's post is fine with me. I don't understand why New England had to change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Other than being completely incompatible with their primary logo? It's also ugly. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 The altered Elvis that goes over the wordmark would actually work a little better as a primary / helmet logo since it's a little less wide than tall - wouldn't look quite as small when displayed next to other logos. I also never noticed how bad that Patriots script really is. What's up with that P? Looks like it's falling down. Wonder if they did that to work with the altered logo. They may have had to alter a logo to go with a wordmark, then alter the wordmark to go with the altered logo. Wow.

WSU151 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I've always enjoyed the cursive wordmark. I think the new one is a huge downgrade. It might be better with the primary, but overall it's pretty damn ugly. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

shaydre1019 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I love the new word mark. I think it appeared on a commemorative book or something this week, but it also had I think "20" in a similar font. Maybe it's a sign of things to come? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
