IceCap Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Brown and grey not only work together, I'd say they're perfect for each other. When I think of brown and grey I think of a grey tailored suite with either a brown shirt or tie and brown shoes. A classy, understated colour scheme. No reason it can't work in the world of sports.

bradsbeard Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 They could also try a color scheme along the lines of the Hershey Bears. Great brown color scheme IMO. http://www.hersheybears.com/index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshawaggie Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I want brown (and yellow, not orange) just a much as the next guy, but I fear the same thing is going to happen as what the other in town team, Chargers, did: brown and navy. @josh_j12 CFA- Fargo Bobcats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Island_Style Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I like brown and yellow as a color combo. Wyoming has a special place in my heart because of it. I don't think SD will go that way. It isn't very marketable. Knowing Mike Dee's record I wouldn't be surprised if he pushed for things to be more "hip." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I've made my preference clear, but what is most important, in my opinion, is that they find something that they will stick with for a long time and stop being the Canucks so that some day people will associate them with one scheme. Aside from the consistent use of an interlocking "SD", they have no identity.Secondarily, they ought to do something that makes them a bit more recognizable.I think that this is where Brown (and whatever) comes in well. If they go to blue and red, it will take years, maybe decades, before the Padres are universally known as a blue and red team (not to mention how many of those we have already). If they go to brown, then "the brown is back" and the Padres are on the fast track to having an identity.I think it worked well for the Astros. The had the orange/blue, blue/gold, brick/orange/black. A change to a back to this scheme sort of sent the message that "this is our identity" or even "we are back to being the Astros."If the padres go brown (and not some bastardized blue/brown like the Chargers) then they'll be "back to being the Padres". Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

But if we're mixing eras - how would brown / yellow / orange look? I have to admit the brown/yellow was before my time and I associate the brown/orange look with them.(Reviewing the mothership, I guess they did use brown yellow and orange together in the early 80s) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOldRoman Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I think brown and yellow would look best with a warmer, slightly khaki gray, as they wore originally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubsFanBudMan Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I love posting this image and am happy to have another chance to do so...This is really all they need. The solution is unbelieveably simple.However, if they won't do that, brown and white would still be a winning combo, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quillz Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Brown and gold is the way to go. I actually like their uniform template they have now, I think that merely recolored could work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
