Iowa State Uniform Discussions

So what is your guess on what time these are being released tomorrow?

Side note -- I think your gold is too yellow.

Which gold? I've done some with our athletic gold, our university gold, and the a bunch of others with various gold shades.

I think with my mocks, most of them, the gold is truer, because these mocks are done in 1D (1 dimension) as is the cardinal (although I've made my cardinal very slightly darker than our athletic pantone. Many of the other mock releases have been shaded and too dark. I am trying to use our athletic pantone colors, for the most part.

For example, Joe Summers mock here is too dark.
View attachment 128510 The cardinal and gold should be lighter. Mine are lighter and truer. You can take my mock and darken the brightness, and you would have Joe Summers color. It's the same between looking at a uniform in the daylight vs. evening. The evening is going to look darker.

Back to the mocks, I'll get back to the gold pant soon. I'm doing the white pant first, then will shift to the cardinal. I would love for them to do a gold pant, but if they did, I fear it will be the too bright athletic gold/yellow everybody (most folks anyway) don't particularly like.

Thanks for info.

Possibly it's the screen on which I'm viewing it (similar to daylight/dark, as you mentioned). I prefer the "Summers" mock ... I might have to compare yours & that to my phone/tablet and see.

Allow me to illustrate, and thankyou for the great question!


Since your question and point, I did change the yellow shoulder stripes from our 'athletic gold' (very bright) to our 'university gold' (more mellow and a little darker); see the difference between pic 1 and pic 2. Next is Joe's image. In pic 4, I decreased the brightness (-21 points), to get to a close approximation of Joe's image.

The darker images are not our colors however. Often times, mocks and images of our team, vary greatly in color and contrast due to how the picture was developed, time of day, sunlight, or how the mockup image was made.

I think I'll start using the University Gold a little more. Supposedly, we have not been using it with our athletic teams. Many of us have been asking for a darker gold. It's not as dark as I'd like, but it is an "official' ISU color nevertheless.

Again, with 'university gold' in the sh. stripes and pant. [Not darkened as in pic 4 above.]

I know it's not going to happen but wow would the mockups provided by @t-noah look good with gold pants and/or gold helmets. Instantly one of the best in the new version of the Big 12.

The new jerseys will be revealed today?

First glance I like them. Small improvements. Hope we actually do wear the gold pants.

GOLD PANTS!

 

[CoachHines3]

Still doesn't answer the question of the image not loading from April 1st.. unless that was intended for the overall look, or something.

 

[JohnPrineforCy]

These a great. I don't care what anyone says.

 

[BigJCy]

I like the number font better that's for sure.

 

[RollClones14]

I like the number font better that's for sure.

I feel like they are a bit smaller and fit better as well

 

[2forISU]

Look great, but let's just win!

 

[cyfanatic]

They look mostly clean...and yeah...hate on me...but the black/white version is just awesome! But they do look nice! Upgrade.
