Uniforms—Logos—Court Designs—Socks—Sneakers—Headbands—Mouthguards

Yah that 80s logo is the best- they should probably just revert full to it, I had to look at it side by side with this one to see that it's actually a little different. Fits into the simplified logo trend now

Nothing will ever top the insane 90s chrome horse with vanishing perspective, it was even late to the sports-wide teal party. Hard to come up with a worse logo change

This Nuggets logo was something:

The '84 Nuggets averaged 120 points per game.

both the new portland and detroit marks have cute lil like motion serifs on the first letters of their names, combined with the overall minimalism it looks kinda cartoonish, like its for kids, imo theyre both well executed but im not totally feeling the vibe

that nuggets logo and particularly the uniforms are all time

tho doing a lil online research both teams have employed similar serifs in the past

fan made wall papers are the highest expression of branding

haha otm.was trying to find an ok warriors wallpaper graphic and after months of searching I just had to make my own. so much trash

90-02 is tite imo, tho there is some discord between the logo and wordmark

blazers is always good yea glad they are moving away from locking it into that black rectangle tho. let it breath.

yeah i mean u can still put it in a rectangle if u want theres no need for it to be part of the spec

take your pick lol

hot & spicy

i really want a design job with an nba franchise. the suns were hiring a creative director like the same day I started my current job and it was snatched up within a couple days :/ one of my friends is on the design team there now, he gives me the lowdown on the inner workings. sounds like it could be pretty rewarding/frustrating. Like they outsource the big campaigns/themes/redesigns to big local agencies/firms so they get stuck doing some of the less sexy work. now theyre trying to wrangle back control of the bigger initiatives. i think they assigned him the jersey updates (theyre updating some of the alternates or something) for the upcoming season hes all pumped about it. but then again he works for r0bert s@rver.

ya wld prob be cool, typical corporate frustrations aside, free tix at least

yeah he got me into a handful of games this year. four seats lower bowl for every home game not bad

damn thats real good

im sure $@rver will strip that way back when they get good again lets be honest

haha

it seems like basically 1 guy/firm has done all the NBA rebrands of the last several years

feel like i read somewhere that their are two companies that basically get all the work

i was thinking of something from zach lowe's article on the wolves rebrand

"They kept saying it was too over the top," said Rodney Richardson, owner of Mississippi-based RARE Design, the consultant who conjured the sleek new logo the Wolves unveiled tonight. "It didn't represent the area, or who they are as people."

Richardson, who designed current logos for the Hornets, Grizzlies, Kings, Hawks, and Pelicans

cant remember which but one of the good new rebrands was done in house. im a career in-house designer so im obv all about this approach. agenices charge a ton of money, talk in circles and fluff things up to be more important than they should be. and rich execs eat, it, up.

yeah agencies are all about sales and the decisionmakers love to be sold to

what ppl think i do [make pretty things]
what i actually do [convince business school graduates that a pretty thing is the universe]

lmao otm

i hop the logo glows like this:

if they're going to do that they need to go full NASCAR/manchester united or w/e

gross these better not be as big as they are in these mockups

ya the cleve one is the right size, also obvs they shd all be in team colors

cavs looks like an apostrophe lol clevela'nd

the winged shoe would be a nice team logo, if it wasn't already being used

yeah the goodyear logo is all time

Fun fact: Florence Griffith Joyner, AKA flo jo designed her own uniforms

She also designed the Indiana Pacers' uniforms. pic.twitter.com/HwS9Ewbmrj
