And they will also revamp their website on Tuesday.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

On the home jersey, I can't tell if it's black or green on the name and number.

[SRJ]

Not bad, not great.

[baseline bum]

I like the secondary logo, and I think the uniforms are crap. The blue one looks really bad.

[dav4463]

They need to unveil a new team.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

They need to unveil a new team.
:lol

[Vinnie_Johnson]

Not great but much better.

[Borosai]

Bad move. They look like the fucking Nets. Yeah, the team has sucked for a long time, but they just lost their identity. Red and yellow is it. It's like the Rockets, going from their red and yellow, to these same colors (whoa) to the red and white that they wear now. Dominique is rolling in his grave.

[E20]

They look like Team USA.

[Spurs rock]

New packaging, same shitty product.

[T Park]

Their too damn plain.

I mean no life to the lettering at all.

Shoulda just done a new style remake of the old Hawks jerseys that Josh Smith wore to honor Nique.

haha

[spurscenter]

THE A TOWN DANCERS look like STIPrERS

the whole page looks like a strip club

[kingsfan]

They really need to stick to the yellow and red, it looks much better.

[MrChug]

For a second I thought that Josh got traded to the Bobcats.

[angel_luv]

I don't remember their old uniforms but the new ones look fine to me.

[HJNTX]

Really looks nice! Good for the Hawks!

[HJNTX]

Well, I LOVE my SPURS but black and white is just as plain as you can get..

[td4mvp21]

:lmao

[cornbread]

Good. That should fix everything.

[bigdog]

They need to unveil a new team.

:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

anyways....i actually think the new look is pretty awesome, although they still suck

[monosylab1k]

The New Jersey Nets and Arizona Wildcats called and they want their jerseys back. This is a fucking horrible look. This would be a monumental disaster along the lines of the Grant Hill era Pistons uniforms and the Dallas silver alternates, but I don't think the Hawks matter enough for anyone to care. It's a good thing that they're going to be in the playoffs next season.

[Extra Stout]

Navy blue, red, and silver are generic colors. They do not establish any identity for the team. The historical choices would be either red, royal blue, and powder blue, or red and yellow.

But the look itself isn't bad.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

On the home jersey, I can't tell if it's black or green on the name and number.

It's the same blue as the road jersey.

[Texas_Ranger]

nice.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

The draft cap is tight.

The Philadelphia Eagles called. They want their logo back.

Meh.

/Cowboys fan. :lol

[sribb43]

The navy ones look like the Bobcats Secondary uniforms

[gaKNOW!blee]

just because teams have the same colors doesnt mean thier uniforms look the same.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

:tu

[Thunder Dan]

I think the Bobcats,Hawks and Predators all have the same logo and lettering now.

[Tippecanoe]

just as lame as before

[CubanMustGo]

And in other news it was announced that the firm which designed the Hawks' new uniforms and logos has been awarded special recognition:

[Findog]

They look fine. A little on the bland side, but whatever. These, on the other hand, are not only awful, but creepy and weird:

Bring back the pea-green and blue:

Those look better than these do.

[Findog]

Those look better than these do.

Agree to disagree.

[JamStone]

Professional sports teams need to stop making new logos/uniforms every couple years just to help merchandise sales. It's stupid. Teams are changing all the time, and a lot of times, it's unnecessary and even dumb. Classic colors and logos should stay relatively consistent. Look at the Lakers, Knicks, Cowboys, Packers, Yankees, Red Sox, Red Wings. Minor style changes are one thing. But, completely overhauling uniforms takes out some of the classic looks of teams. Sometimes, it needs to be done, like with the Nuggets and their rainbow rocky uniforms. But, most times, they don't need to be done. I like the classic red and yellow Hawks colors.

I still cringe over the Pistons' "teal era."

I loved the Nuggets' rainbow jerseys.

[dallaskd]

those suck.

To me, they're in that "they're so ugly, they become kinda cool" category

[Borosai]

Anyone notice how Mutombo is in both of these pics? Ugly follows the man around.

[Findog]

The man has a knack for picking teams with ugly jerseys:

[Brutalis]

Colorblind...

[Brutalis]

They just needed to update their own yellow and red. Now they went and turned into a WNBA look.

[Sacramental]

too many teams with red. the away jersey looks like one of the cavs jerseys and the white looks like the nets jersey.

It's incredible that the Broncos trashed their classic look and have stuck with those ugly ass uniforms for a decade now. Hopefully one day they catch on and realize it.

You dont like the Broncos unis? I think they're sweet. They are the ones we copied off with our football jerseys for highschool, I loved em.


But I dont think any of this is really a big deal, however a team wants to look should be thier choice. I really dont pay much attention to uniforms and logos and all that. Although I will admit its a little cooler to like the Spurs without pink.

Look at the Cleveland Browns. Those are the definition of classic colors. I bet they would sell more merch. to out of market people if their colors wern't so ugly. But if your a Browns fan you love them. Every time they do a list of ugly and best uniforms, they are always on both.

[bdictjames]

Its pretty much like the USA Team jersey. I hope that helps them win games.

Yeah, those look shitty, but the new blue is terrible.

They should have gone this route:
Josh smith yellow (http://http://delivery.viewimages.com/xv/73713646.jpg?v=1&c=ViewImages&k=2&d=17A4AD9FDB9CF1932BBB80AB57C97602847F4E87C456CC71 FC8261F5D8587EEF)
I personally thought the newer red was cool also.

busted link.

[cecil collins]

Yeah, I tried to fix it, but I suck.

[The Red Hood]

:lol Hey Spurs Rock when did Shawn Michaels do that? :lol

[SrA Husker]

Atlanta should of gone back to their 80's logo. It was actually good.

[Thunder Dan]

This is what they need. I'm tired of this futuristic bullshit teams try to pull off every year. Notice how good teams usually don't have to do this.

I actually dig the secondary logo on the back of the jersey collar.
