Avs to get Stadium Series at USAFA next year

[Ceremony]

I mean the concept works with a big A in the style of old Bruins or Toronto Arenas jersey but, er, oh dear.

 

[UncleRisto]

Well, it's interesting. I like elements in it but they could've stood to be a little less... artistic with some of those choices.

Also, someone should definitely Photoshop that mountain into a cock.

I'm I the only one that hopes they see the reaction on social media and change the design ?

 

[AvsCOL]

Oh my god... I'd be surprised if they sold 10 of these

 

[UncleRisto]

Hopefully, because they can do whatever they want and social media changing things with overreactions is an annoying trend.

 

[Pokecheque]

Are they trying to work in the AFA chapel in as an A? I like the concept but yeah let’s hope that’s just an early prototype that got rejected/reworked.

 

[RockLobster]

Hot f***ing Garbage.

Could have gone with an all navy jersey with a big, simple/classic burgundy "A", or swap it as an all burgundy with a big, simple/classic navy "A". Of course white would then be used as appropriate trim.

This is a f***ing monstrosity. And whoever approved it should be named so they should be told just how utterly horseshit their decision was.

 

[LTC Pain]

I'm usually pretty optimistic but that is some ugly s**t!!! But I'm also thinking it's not the actual jersey either. Troll job maybe???

 

[ASmileyFace]

I simply refuse to believe that is the design the team came up with for this game. It is truly dreadful.

I mean the pant color doesn't even match!

EDIT: Turns out it probably is. Ugh. Why would there make the design only take up half the jersey? It might not look half as bad if it didn't have an enormous burgundy apron on the bottom.

This can't be real right? Seriously what the **** is that? Why can't we have nice things? That's gonna go down in the history books right next to those Vancouver V jerseys. Some one should get fired for this bull ****.

Yikes, I would say the Avs colour scheme is #2 to the Oilers Royal Blue and Orange. I don’t actually mind the jersey itself but the bottoms though, why the different tone pants?

 

[Gatorbait19]

It’s like when they brainstormed jersey ideas they asked “what jersey will we sell the least of?”

 

[AvsFanInMichigan]

I was kinda hoping it would have some Air Force inspiration because we are playing at the academy but I guess not.

“Hey marketing/design team, whatcha got for us for the stadium series game?”

“Do you remember the Yeti from the SkiFree PC game?”

They even got the teeth correct.

 

[henchman21]

It is a jersey.

 

[Gatorbait19]

It is a jersey.

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

Shit. I was thinking about getting a stadium series jersey before I saw the design. I think I'd rather get herpes.

 

[RockLobster]

It is a jersey.

 

[BoxOfChocolates]

Like it better than the boring wannabe original 6 shit we usually see. It’s a one off that will be a collector’s item in 20 years. Might get one

 

[CharlesPuck]

Whoops, didn't see this was already posted.

CARRY ON

 

[CB Joe]

I actually like the concept. I just wish they would change the style of the "A" and the mountains.

 

[TheFactor]

if they made the mountains symmetrical it would look half decent

I didn’t think it could get worst than uniapron. Here we are...

As a one-off, I like the idea of using the jersey as the primary logo rather than a patch/crest. That being said, I don't this was executed particularly well. The added mountain patch makes an odd burgundy-on-burgundy border which wouldn't be a big deal, but those are two totally different materials so it looks off/sloppy, especially when the color is supposed to look continuous. The placement of the mountain patch also makes the "A" proportionally weird. But really, the biggest issue for me is the white of the "A" going clear up to the neck as part of the collar; yes, it looks like a tucked-in napkin, but it also makes the "A" too tall. I would like to see a version with an all-blue collar as I think it might help with some of the general proportion issues.

Overall, it very much looks like a prototype. It's not a bad starting point - but it could've easily been improved upon. If you handed this to me, I'd probably just assume it was for a semi-pro roller hockey team.

Maybe Bednar will pull a Mike Keenan
