colinturner95 3,172 Posted January 25, 2014 Alright, i've finally done the Jets. Hopefully the thread isn't completely dead. Honestly, the Jets don't have a bad look. The shade of green on the jersey is ugly though. -Added the jet to the top of the "JETS" and "NY" wordmarks-Added green helmet with "NY" wordmark-Added another stripe on the jerseys to emulate the '68 jerseys-Both sets of socks are striped. Honestly, it was a simple change. I had intended to make much more drastic changes but as you can see, I decided against it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DScruggy729 359 Posted January 25, 2014 No, it's just fine. I like the use of the old 90's logo, although I'd like it if you went with more of a kelly green from the 70's, but it's a massive upgrade from the atrocities that are their current set. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LAWeaver 958 Posted January 25, 2014 I hope this thread doesn't die either, BK. The Jets look good IMO. The only thing I would change would be to make the green helmet the main helmet and the white one the alt. I will say that I'm a little surprised there is no NY Titans throwback/fauxback set. I think a black/dark navy and gold version of that NY helmet would make a great fauxback helmet. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LoyolaProp1 17 Posted January 25, 2014 One thing about the Giants I just considered, are you ditching the numbers around the helmet stripe? Isn't it kind of a staple for them? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LoyolaProp1 17 Posted January 25, 2014 Your Jets concept is the best mashup of new and old I've seen. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LAWeaver 958 Posted January 25, 2014 BK- What I meant was black OR dark Navy. They had throwbacks a few years ago. Something like this:http://sportsofnewyork.com/files/2011/09/mark-sanchezThrowback.jpgBasically, what you have now but in ^these colors. Maybe copy the shoulder striping from ^this and put on a black version of the NY helmet and put NY in gold. Hope I'm not coming across as needy or pushy. I just happen to really like their throwback. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think too many teams fall back on black as an alternate color. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colinturner95 3,172 Posted January 25, 2014 I do like that jersey, and the colors. So you know what, I'll give a fauxback a shot. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LAWeaver 958 Posted January 25, 2014 LoyolaProp - at least this would be a fauxback/throwback to honor their history (despite the Titans name being brief). Most teams use black just b/c they can. The Jets would have a good reason for it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only black i think the Titans had were on the shoes. Facemasks might have been grey, the belts might have been black but for all intents and purposes, the Titans never used black. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LAWeaver 958 Posted January 25, 2014 It looked black to me. I could be wrong though. It may just be a really dark navy. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Working with the colors on this team, they are very close. My original plan tried to incorporate navy and green, then it was green and gold, green and black. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tigerslionspistonshabs 1,642 Posted January 25, 2014 Awesome on the Jets. That's exactly what they should be wearing. I realize that it's not absolutely necessary to have your name displayed in your logo, but when your name is something as blatant as 'Jets', you should have a jet in your logo. The logo they use now is the most generic logo in the league. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colinturner95 3,172 Posted January 25, 2014 Went through another designing idea phase and ended up with this:Historically, the Jets have never had a true alternate jersey. I saw no reason for that to change... but....-Recolored the home jersey in the New York Titans colors making this a fauxback. Nothing too crazy. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LAWeaver 958 Posted January 26, 2014 That is awesome. Great job on the alternate. Exactly as I imagined it! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
