I've noticed that the new helmets are already not showing for sale on the Team Store. Either they have sold out already or they are worried they are going to before the draft day party on the 23rd. My impression is that this gear is flying off the shelves already and that is great. I will get...
Yup, the bottom line is we saw it out of context initially. The logo has grown on me quickly, but not the way they presented it on that sweatshirt. I definitely won’t be buying one of those.
I am satisfied if this is what we are now.
As I stated already, I would not have designed the arrow logo the way they did, but I understand why they did, and I understand there could very well be trademark implications in just using the spear by itself. As I’ve looked closer at the helmet...
Another great thing is that all of our new players will share the exact jersey with our legacy players. There will no longer be a visual break between the old and the new.
I was listening to Mark Clouse on the way home, talking to B Mitch and Finlay, and he kind of hit on something that...
I also heard while I was driving home…that they could not use the spear alone because of potential trademark conflicts with Florida State. I’m not sure where that came from but I heard it on 106.7 the fan. If true, which it probably is, there is not much more to say about why they couldn’t...
The hat and the helmet show how context is everything with this type of stuff. I did not like that spear logo when I saw it on the sweatshirt…at all. I like it a lot more on a hat and on a helmet. I think it fits much better in those contexts.
I will be blunt and say the way they implemented the spear is not the way I would have done it or prefer. I do think it looks better on the black uniform helmet that it did on that sweatshirt for certain. I think once I get past the slight disappointment of it not just being a spear on its...
First chance I’ve had to look at everything just got out of my work meeting. I do like the way they have employed the spear alternate logo on the black uniform that definitely looks better than 00. I do wish we had just gotten the spear by itself on the black one, but honestly…I’m not too down...
If that is a logo design, strictly for sweatshirts that I won’t buy, I will be happy. If that replaces the current W as the primary, or is on a helmet that way…I will be extremely upset. By combining them both that way, both are weaker.
Give me the W by itself give me the spear by itself...
