San Diego Padres Prototype Jersey

The first post of the Prototype Uniforms series is for the San Diego Padres. The jersey is from 1999, and is navy with white and sand accent colors. It features a new San Diego wordmark, which was eventually used on their road jerseys, still worn today. The jersey also has an iteresting alternate logo on the sleeve, a P with a palm tree inside. The only part of this jersey that was actually used is the wordmark, which was modified and first used in 2004.

Prototype Uniforms; A Mini Series

Over the years, I have gathered quite a bit of information and pictures about prototype sports uniforms and designs. I think it is fun to see what could have been for teams. Over the next few weeks I will share different prototype uniforms and designs, including pictures and the stories behind them.

Flyers and Penguins Jersey Concepts

Here are two alternate jersey concepts I made a while back, for the Flyers and Penguins. The Flyers' is 90's inspired, with the winged P logo wrapping almost all the way around the jersey. The socks even match! The Pens jersey is supposed to reflect an igloo theme, as penguins are often associated with igloos, and the NHL team's home arena is nicknamed the Igloo. The jersey features an igloo themed design on the sleeves and hem, as well as the use of the Penguins' old colors. The logo no longer has the triangle, just the penguin.
