puckbags 863 Report post Posted August 16, 2007 They are a little too busy for my liking. That, and if they shrunk down the logo to be about 2/3 of the current size, I would like it more. I agree..those are G-R-O-S-S, way too much going on there..all they need is some advertisements and they would have a perfect Euro club jersey!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Williams29fan 6 Report post Posted August 16, 2007 I like the number on the front now. They grew on me last year with Buffalo. I am not to big on the road jerseys though. I absoultly love the home jerseys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
auxlepli 17 Report post Posted August 16, 2007 (edited) The numbers on the front look too cluttered to me as well. Like the C & A on the Wings jersey it's also on the wrong side. Even on the other side it'd still be too cluttered, but IMO, it'd look better. The home jersey looks better than the away jersey. On the away the sleeves are too dark for the rest of the jersey. The tie-ups are a nice touch, but again that adds to making the jersey look cluttered. Though part of that is where the NHL logo is. That, as far as I'm concerned, is a bad design flaw especially since some teams seem infatuated with tie-up sweaters, which these days, aren't really necessary. Another thing I don't like is the blue piping. That makes it look cluttered too. Edited August 16, 2007 by auxlepli Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DetroitIan Report post Posted August 16, 2007 I like them but on the home it looks like the numbers are on the right side, so maybe we wont be the only team with moving "C"s and "A"s I like em. They definitely look better than last years. The dark jersey is much better though. The white ones arent that great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Another thing I don't like is the blue piping. That makes it look cluttered too. Take off the blue piping and maybe simplify the sleeves a little and it would look a lot better. The top half of the sleeves should be the same as the body color, like the classic Isles jerseys. If they made those two changes, the jersey would be virtually identical to the classic one.

betterREDthandead 58 Report post Posted August 17, 2007 I think the sleeves are going to look a little goofy on TV. All that orange catches the eye before the white or blue, so it's gonna look similar to when NBA players wear those silly tight sleeves over their arms.

Erack82 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2007 (edited) How could anybody find the new Islanders jerseys appealing? As a whole they are too busy. The contour line in the top portion of the jersey is uneccesary, the abundence of white places emphasis on the arms which makes the appearence overall unbalanced, the parallel lines on the shoulder serve no purpose, the smaller bottom border doesn't give the jersey enough of a foundation say as the older Red Wings jersey, and the color placement makes for an overall very muttled composition. Bottom line is this looks more like a baseball uniform, not hockey. I don't have anything against baseball uniforms, but Christ what was the designer thinking? If there is a reason and a true purpose for the excection, then so be it. To me it just seems to be careless and not thought out.

Guest jaytan Report post Posted August 17, 2007 These new Islanders jerseys are better than their old ones. I like the addition of more orange. There needs to be a thin white stripe under the top orange part of the sleeve, to match the rest and balance it out. Their logo still sucks, but I guess they can't change it. They won't be wearing the 'A' and 'C' on the wrong side like Detroit, though (blasphemy!), I've seen other pictures of the blue jersey, and the number is always on the same side as it is on the white one. Plus, DiPietro's jerseys in these pictures lack the sleeve numbers, which will be included. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
