And, to go along with their new logo,
farallon had me design up the Tennessee Moonshiners' new jerseys, as well as the hilarious alternate jersey of his own invention. =)
I think they came out great, and I had a lot of fun with them.

Oh man, this is hilarious, Mitch!! Great job! Ugh-- the Moonshiners have such an ugly color scheme. It's so perfect, though.
Like the simple, clean design of the linework-- though it looks like they stole from Stanislaus' roster! Hey!! Don't make me redesign my jersey!!
That alternate jersey is INSANE. That has GOT to be the #1 seller in their team store. Awesome idea, amazing execution on that one. Great, great job.
The one thing I might change is removing the jug from the face of the jersey. Putting the entire logo on the jersey face is not unheard of in the FBA (the Newark Pride jerseys proudly show off the logo), but it's rare for most basketball jerseys. Usually they just use text. I might suggest removing the basketball-jug from the jerseys and just leaving the word MOONSHINERS or TENNESSEE in the fonts that they're in. I think it would clean up the face of the jersey some.

I'll have to ask Farallon about removing the jug, there, before I can do that.
But, there's a lot of differences between these jerseys and yours. The Thrust have a colored waistband, don't have shoulder-caps, and the Moonshiners also have a double-ring around the leg openings, so I don't think you have too much to be worried about. =P

Yeah, I gotta agree with Buck here. These jerseys are simply outstanding, I must say that first and foremost. You took a god-awful color scheme and somehow made it beautiful. Kudos!
But the jug on the front is uncommon, and it clutters up the jersey just a bit. Now after I mentioned this to you, I did think of the Pride's jerseys with their logo on it, so it's not all that bad. But really, it tends to look better if you just stretch the name across the jersey instead. Or use the logo in it's simple version and cut out the text that becomes too tiny shrunken down (the "Tennessee" in the first jersey, or how the details are hard to see in the Blanks' throwback jersey, when the font across the chest would nice, bold and readable).
But really, your jerseys have been pushing the boundaries of what I know and see on existing jerseys... and that's a good thing! Don't stop being super creative with these! But I do agree with Buck about the logo on front. At least do it for yourself and compare and see which one you personally end up liking better. :)
