Jerseys!!!!

[alan93]

Here's a mock up of 3 with some white added in to allow MBUL to be black. I think that an adapted no. 3 with some white in it as well as the blue black and red would be awesome... thoughts?

Thats more like it now If it just had the little red colour gradient in the bottom left of the front view....the expanse of white there is a little odd looking I think. Otherwise, top notch stuff!!!

Perhaps add on another poll option for Dan's new creation? Because its certainly getting my vote

[seanryan]

And mine!

One thing to bear in mind about a predominantly white jersey is that it'll stain easily. They look great out of the box but after a few months of being covered in shite on the trails and washed they might not look so nice.

Going by what Dan has there and assuming we go with the bit of red in the plain white corner, the whole jersey is (at my best guess) only 30% white? So dirt hopefully won't ruin the look. And besides....surely the whole idea is to get it nice and dirty so everyone knows what sport we're in

I can't see nay image/link to a new version?

[Psycholist]

Both designs look okay, but I'd prefer the second one. 1C and 1E are my favourites using design one and 2C and 2E are my favourites from design 2. Two different colours in the MBUL text is a bad idea. Also the MBUL logo on the sleeve in design 1 should be rotated 180 degrees. The convention for vertical text is that it should be read from top to bottom, not bottom to top and while people are on their bikes it'll be the right way up. The images in design 2 are inconsistent on this anyway as the front picture shows the incorrect orientation while the back one shows the correct one so this needs to be clarified - poor spatial reasoning on the designer's part there...

The picture is noisy, so the edit is rough, but making the bike and logo both white means it will be necessary to leave an outline to separate them. It looks better than two different colours anyway.

I'd tend to avoid any design with large areas of white - we're not enduro enough to keep that shit actually white once it's been out on a few messy spins. Depending on the price and final design I might get 2 of them.

[Eoin Keyes]

1C gets my vote, it stands out more than any of them except for the white one, and I think white should definatly be avoided here!

[LBJ09]

Is that link that Cormac has put up the new version? I must be blind because I still can't see your new link Danny. If that is the edit then I agree with Cormac that the words and bike need seperation. Would you also change the MBUL on the sleeve to match the colouring on the chest?

[dannyk]

my version is linked in alan's original post at the start of the thread, but here it is again:

large white area still needs a bit of reducing but it's just a direction to look at.

[Psycholist]

Definitely too much white. I'm not a fan of the weathered look on the letters either. That was a thing back in the late 80s and early 90s, but clean lines and properly filled areas look a lot better to me.

[e0in]

Either 2E or dans edit with white reduced.

I'm not a fan of the weathered look on the letters either. That was a thing back in the late 80s and early 90s, but clean lines and properly filled areas look a lot better to me.

I brought this up in one of the early meetings and people disagreed with me, but I agree with cormac on this one. simple lettering would look better.

[Dutchy]

Hey guys
I'm back from Canada for a bit... Like the second option better.
Anyone have any idea if I would need the L or XL?
Look forward to getting out soon for a ride!

[cathalferris]

I like the edit.

One in L, and one in XXL, please

[alan93]

I like the edit.

One in L, and one in XXL, please

Was it XL or XXL?

[Joejoebeans]

Either 2E or dans edit with white reduced.

I'm with the guys, plain lettering would be better

[seanryan]

The edit looks great but wouldn't mind seeing now the plain lettering would look but the base colour and design gets my vote!

Can someone take the logo and do a plain lettered version of it so we can take a look before going back to spin with feedback please? It's not as simple as asking them to change the lettering, we supplied the logo to them and they put it on the jersey as was.
In the defence of the weathered lettering, it may be 80s/90s, (not that I have that association with it, only being born in 91) but it does reflect nicely that mountain biking is a bit of a dirty sport, whereas clean lettering is a bit clinical in my opinion.
If those in favour of clean lettering were happy with a little 'spray' on it, as MAD MTB in dublin have done, then I think I'd be happy with that too.

[Kian]

I'll take one of these anyway. I might try one on at the next pizza if it's not too late, otherwise I'll just follow Joe's logic and take an M

[seanryan]

Spray paint template is actually a nice effect!
I'm not to pushed on the whole patch over full lettering thing as Dan said born after that whole age!
Either way it's up to everyone but the general design of the jersey gets my vote, style etc of logos doesn't bother me too much!

If ok, i'll get one the same size as cathal (we're not too far off, unless its borderline smallish i'll go larger) and do prefer cormacs version (but i'll happily ride in a shirt with teddy bears advertising halo hair and nails) so my opinion is questionable tbf.

they are very ice hockey circa '95 to these old eyes

[Dvi10]

so whats the current state of the jerseys? i missed the pizza night

im liking Dan's design, the white gives it i nice touch. maybe you could use less of it and use it like a border to separate the red and blue? i dont know how that would look. just a thought

also i think the wolves symbol on the back should be bigger. just looks a bit small when there is room to stretch it a bit?

and i think slogans were mentioned earlier? is there any point in a slogan? would look kinda cool and we could get a few ideas going for one

[TomTorode]

Yep we're going with Dan's design with less white on it, we agreed as well that the wolves logo should be bigger and I don't think we're going with a slogan.
We're also currently redoing our logo so it's less patchy and all black as there was quite a lot of people who didn't like the current one. Once thats done we'll pass on all the info to spin11 and get them to refine the design.
