3rd Jersey Reduxededed & Rebutteded

by Pinchy The Lobster on Jul 14, 2009 9:06 PM MDT Comment 65 comments

My obsessiveness wins again! I tried to adapt something that would actually work with the stupid Reebok jersey. Thanks to c0nquistad0rian for crushing mine, and many others dreams of "ye old jagged stripes" that apparently willn't work with the new stitching.

The darker ones are taken right from the Colorado state flag. The light ones are apparently the official Nordiques "Joe Sakic Blue". Since I have a far superior computer than most of you, the jerseys will always look much better to me. I pitty the fool...

I changed the red too.

#4 is best

but the last crop was better :( is there really a problem with the reebok stuff so they can’t do the mountain stuff?

Damn… you voted before I posted #5, which I like the best. That’s what happens when you have 12 browser windows open.. and a few drinks.

Sorry, man:P

I really like this one that you did:

Can you do something like this, but with alternating burgundy and white stripping in the style of say, a Blackhawks jersey?

I also noticed that your’e trying to incorporate both numbers and logos on the sleeves. It seems like what lots of teams do is put the logos on the shoulders and the numbers on the upper sleeve, in the bicep area. What do you think about that?

I like 4,1 and 5.

What I am tired of are those burgandy and blue not going with anything at all ass clashing colors…

These rock

especially #6, but I do really like the jagged stripe Sakic Blue with the fleurs de lis or howeverthehell you spell that from the last post.

Bob in Boulder just wants to lose. He’s really not negative. He wants the Avs to move to Honolulu. Damned Commie!

threadjack!

Since I’ve been riding on Pinchy’s work as my template, I figured that I would just say that I like #6 then 1 of the above, but screw RBK, we can work it out sans the apron effect on our unis…

I’ve done up an old Avs/Rockies combo jersey that I really like. I’m posting a ton of colors, but the first two are my favorites…

My favorite–it’s not hugely nordiquey but whatever. The Coloradoness of it is what I like here

Going in a very different direction, if we want a genuinely different 3rd, I think this would suit us well.

and a few color combos together for comparison:

I just want Drury back... I recognize the Drury->Morris->Statsny chain, and I stick with the statement.

by wflan on Jul 15, 2009 12:22 AM MDT reply actions 0 recs

Coloradoness of #2?

There’s a lot of folks that wear Green & Gold and Blue & White that would disagree with you on that one.

GO RAMS!!!

Go Rams!

Indeed. Think we have a chance against the Buffs here in Boulder this year? Damn Buffs chickened out of having the game at Mile High. Aholes.

These are pretty awesome, even though I’m not a big fan of the Black. What if they were Burgundy with white/blue stripes I think I’d like them a lot more.

Reminds me of the Wild’s third jerseys. Also, I think that you’re missing an E;)

by c0nquistad0rian on Jul 17, 2009 7:37 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs

and an A

but that is because license plates are limited to 7 letters, no?

The 09/10 stickers are a little much though. I understand them with the license plate theme, but they’d only be good for one year.

I voted for #6. Love the stripes on the bottom. Really helps it not look so “uniprony”.

How about 3 with the Av logo on the arms instead of the foot?

And who voted for me? Thank you! But please remember: I want to be negative!

I love #1, for some reason. How about a combo of 1 and 2. You can have the goalie and the D wear #1 and the forwards wear #2. Or evens in #1 and odd numbers wear #2.

For some reason, I remember hearing that when the Nordiques franchise relocated to Colorado, they did not retain the rights to the Nordiques name and logo. I think that the Quebec City, or whoever owns the Colisee Pepsi owns the rights to the igloo/n Nordiques logo.

I don’t know about the Fleur de Lis. I can’t imagine that that image is owned considering it is such a part of french history.
