Most likely to be in August.surely they reveal them before draft? dont they present a jersey to the new players at a press conference the next day?
Yes, usually they do.surely they reveal them before draft? dont they present a jersey to the new players at a press conference the next day?
I thought the same thing, but it’s actually not the case. For context, the Cavs’ last new uniform set was not unveiled until August 7th. We’ll likely have to wait a little bit longer for them to drop.surely they reveal them before draft? dont they present a jersey to the new players at a press conference the next day?
all trash. But honestly, the black shield is really bad. I’ll take anything over that.
In my opinion, the most objective way at determining that is how closely it aligns with current industry trends and whether or not the uniform has a singular identity.Honest question: what separates a nicely designed uniform from a poorly designed one?
I mean, I can look at a uniform and say, "oh, I like how that looks" and then someone will say it looks like crap. Or, I think something looks like trash that others say is genius. Is it just a function of fashion being entirely subjective?
No need to apologize! I appreciate the explanation - gives me good perspective on how uniform design quality is judged.In my opinion, the most objective way at determining that is how closely it aligns with current industry trends and whether or not the uniform has a singular identity.
The “trend” for uniforms right now seems to be simple, 2D designs across the entire identity. I think the reason why a lot of late 90s/early 2000s logos and uniforms haven’t aged well are because 3D designs were big and a lot of them were too busy. For example, the ‘sword across the basketball’ logo used until 2018 had three different features going on while using multiple primary colors. In contrast, the new ‘ball through hoop’ logo is a flat design that only uses one color.
Meanwhile, I think a lot of uniforms are deemed poor because they simply have too many different ideas going on. Take the uniform set shared above as an example. There’s three different types of stripes throughout some of the uniforms and it’s hard to get a consistent feel of the team’s main colors. The different looks can also make it easy to confuse it with another team’s identity, which is likely considered when determining how “good” a uniform looks.
I think that’s what makes designing an identity for the Cavs is so difficult; they’re taking ideas from several different looks throughout the team’s history that go together like water and oil. Even the new updated logo contrasts with the rest of the typeface.
At the end of the day, most of it is just preference. However, I think there are a few correlations between design techniques and what people like. Again, just my opinion. Sorry for the long post!
Also might be a good guess blending some continuity from current sets—
This is a winner but, I want the Wine Aways to say "Cleveland"
I actually love those jazz uniforms, they've all sucked ass since they got rid of them (except the new sunburst)
I actually like these. They look pretty clean.
