2014-15 uniform thread

Postby East Coast Mustang » Wed May 07, 2014 11:54 am

Sorry to the uniform nazi, but this is my cross to bear on PonyFans.

Last year's uniforms sucked. The number font was terrible, the Nike check was black on the home uniforms (should have been blue), also the logo on the top middle that was the SMU Dallas Hall image should have been the Mustang logo instead. Furthermore, we need alternate BLUE away uniforms next year. It blows my mind how year in and year out our athletic department does such a [deleted] job with our uniforms- I realize a lot of it has to do with Nike and budgetary constraints but come on.

Next year we're going to be a national title contender- we need to look like one with some cool uniforms. Not some stupid spacesuits like Baylor wears, but something traditional and yet still eye-catching. This can be done. It needs to be done.

As with all SMU uniforms, blue as the primary color would look soooo much better.

I thought our last year's home uniform's were very clean looking. I liked them.

Agreed, although I would like a blue uni, especially since so many of our conference foes also have red uniforms

I liked the unis, but again any improvement will require the payment of the customization fee to Nike.

I thought the 13-14 uniforms were kick [deleted]. No substitute for classy.

Please use this Font/Lettering for the uniforms from now on

If you are going to add the pony to the uniform, then use this logo

Don't think LB would go for names on the back, but those look clean otherwise.

I do think that away unis could be blue but that is just my opinion. I am sure this season's unis will be smooth as well.
