Wednesday: Untraditional Post

Well, as I write this I'm sick enough to be staying home from school, so I get to write this post on Wednesday! So remember Monday's post, the No New News post... Well I found some stuff on Sportslogos.net's Sochi Olympic thread, showing some of the new jerseys coming out, and since we haven't had many concepts coming in lately, I decided to dedicate a post to all the new sweater that have been unreported by Icethetics, Sportslogos.net, and HJC. Lets dive in!

Team Japan Woman's Hockey (By Nike)

We start off the jerseys with a team Japan jersey, first found by our own writer, Alan John Herbert! So lets start looking at this. Ok. I'm really trying to find anything positive about this. The font for the "Japan" mark looks cool... Really though. This design is pretty bad. The socks look horrible and so does every thing else, but at least it has hem striping. Rating 2.5/10

 

Team Belarus Men's Hockey

Found by Sportslogos.net user Vman

Sadly one of the best that Nike's done yet, and we won't see it at the Olympics. This is also apparently the new template for the Nike jerseys. I find the fact that the yoke cuts off at the back, like the Stadium Series yokes, pretty odd. But, I seriously think these aren't that bad. The hem striping inspired by the flag of Belarus is cool, and the arm stripes are simple enough to work. It just needs something a little more. Rating 7.4/10

 

Team Latvia Men's Hockey

Found by Sportslogos.net user Vman

Another one of Nike's better jersey's, is Latvia. The hem stripes would be a little too much here, so I'm happy for once that Nike left them out. The striping is close enough to look like Latvia's flag, to well... make it look like Latvia's flag. As always the coat of arms looks awesome, and really this is Nike's best work. Maybe a touch of Silver would make it better. Rating 8/10
