Major Branding Announcement: New Tech Gold

[iceeater1969]

By the way on both shirts, white polo and gold tee, there is no blue trim or lettering
On the white polo the very thin border is black on the gold Gt. Hard to tellbit is not blue due to narrow width.

As an old timer i would be pretty excited to see throw back with a major Adidas touch= basic bad *** black shoes w 3 stripes, gold pants with 3 narrow pin stripes , shirt w flare, and shiny gold honey comb helmets. Adidas could do great things with White and Gold!.
Let the disagreements begin.

I'm not opposed to honeycomb graphics if done well. No friggn' bubble wrap or chicken wire. There's some good stuff out there, you don't have to reinvent the wheel. I like this design w/o the bee. It would be badass on a helmet.

Separating the cells makes it look less like chicken wire. Again, delete the bees.

I think the hexagon pattern if used correctly could be cool if they made it clear it wasn't honeycombs. I know people will always call it such but Yellow Jackets don't make honey.

Instead the hexagons that yellow jackets make are in their nest

Spoiler

I think it could be a cool branding to turn a part of Bobby Dodd into "The Nest" and have the hexagon branding stem from that.

The Adidas shirt which I ordered and received from Fansedge has a very dark Adidas logo, trim around the GT and "Georgia Tech". I am pretty sure that "very dark" color is black and not blue. It looks terrific.

Endzones and baselines done in the hexagon pattern could become as well known as the checkerboard pattern from that school in the state above us.

Too much honeycomb can really screw with some people.

Possibly, if they were done right. But the pattern on the helmets doesn't show at all from a distance. If the patterns were done like the one with the bee that cheese posted, they could at least be seen. Just an unfilled hex pattern doesn't do a thing for me.

It must be filled with "TECH GOLD"

Very good. I like it.
Makes for more Buzz at BDS.

Could smaller black combs be in the shape of Gt set on background of lighter colored.

I like black but am good if we use navy.

Great job on the honey combs

Hopefully our opponents and their fans will suffer from this in 2018 and beyond!

Yay! Got an email & tracking number for my t-shirt!

My order is shipping too!

Regarding the hexagon pattern, if you downloaded one of the desktop images from the gtathl.com site, you can see the hexagons around the image, but closer to the outside of the graphic, it transitions to more of a circuit-board-ish image. If they are making an effort to emphasize the rambling wreck logo over Buzz, maybe they will also be transitioning from the hexagon/honeycomb to the circuit board? (which is a lot more high-tech and looks pretty cool, imo)

My quarter zip CPJ Special is shipping. Still waiting on back ordered gold shirt and full sleeve quarter zip.

Also the coffee mug with the new word mark is back ordered still.

Oh well, I ordered Saturday afternoon on the release weekend so glad that people are buying. It bodes well for excitement about this upcoming season in all sports.

Had someone travelling from Atl to Texas stop by the bookstore and get me one of the new white polos. Nice merchandise - Adidas makes good stuff! runs a little bigger than Adidas golf shirts though. I'm looking forward to a gold polo when they're available for mail order again.

My gold shirt has just shipped. The gold shirt on all other websites has sold out

Sure. Just as soon as we can start coming close to filling the place first. Otherwise we will just be known as “the empty nest”

 

[GTFowler]

well my shirt finally arrived....but with a hole in it

Wow. I hope they have a good return policy.

I think that part was the wrong color gold anyway.
