Interesting take on the firm that was hired and the thought process behind it.
Seems like they took elements from the Nets in terms of making it retro and blue collarish. Given I hardley have watched them in many years the really did not have much in terms of a strong heritage vissually except to me Oscar and Kareem back in the day. They had some nice team since but not visually. The use of cream is very retro. Reminds me of old wool baseball uniforms. I think the Packers used it back in the day. Not because of the color, but because thats what the material was made of. Like a canvas sort of material. Acme Packers This not mentioned in the article, just me. The Green and Cream will look interesting. Not sure how it will tie in with the new floor they have. I wonder if they'll model the new arena like a wheel of cheese?? Doubt it! ESPN article |

I must say they did a better job with this new logo. They must have finally paid a real designer to help. I've hated their uniforms and logos over the years, but this look fits their new young team. Good for them.

The new logo looks nice.
Just wonder if Knicks will modified its logo coming forward. |

I love the new knicks logo and uniforms. I hope they keep it but get rid of the stupid blue around the waist on the home whites

I'm used to having either a "meh" or "that's awful!" reaction to new branding... but I really love the new look. I dig the colors. I dig that it looks like a print. I think the Bucks will have some of the nicest t-shirt merchandise moving forward

Looking forward to seeing the uniform. I like how the antlers have two patterns of a basketball. They can really pull a lot from the logo into seporate entities.
What other teams are lacking identity in their look? Minny? Sacremento? The Jazz redid thiers Last year. I think winning and being on a national stage has a lot to do with it more than the colors. Iconic images are seared in memory from "Moments". |
