the orange f***ing blows and what the hell is up with that weird font/numbering on the back? god the samuelis suck

 

[DingDongCharlie]

You're welcome to think that. Def. don't agree at all haha.

Just too much orange. Way too much. No contrast. Shoulder should be a different colour at minimum. The road jersey looks like a smashed egg.

Whoever mentioned looking like a Home Depot employee nailed it.

Probably being too critical but they had a great opportunity to make a killer jersey with the throwback logo.

The Kings unis look like Temu versions of the old ones.

...but I suppose that is better than looking like a CalTrans worker.

Looks like a orange nightmare.

Kings uniforms are CLEAN though.

 

[Little Psycho]

That’s a lot of orange. The pants look ugly.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Logo is too big on LA's. Anaheim I thought was ugly until I saw that awful font on the back. Woof. Might be the league's worst, immediately.

Ducks go from worst jersey, to second worst when Utah joined, and the ducks just took the ugliest jersey award back from Utah before a game was played.

Kings are boring and I hate black jerseys.

I get it don't get me wrong, I just like that it is unapologetically orange and we went back to the old logo.

I like the throwback look of this Kings jersey, but I'm not a fan of the 'glittery' appearance of the silver.

 

[Arthuros]

I like them a lot.

 

[anezthes]

Dig the home jersey, but the away one is awful, as are the pants.
The black circle behind the mask, as well as the sticks, don't look right.

 

[Machinehead]

Yeah, I'm in the camp of thinking the home is pretty strong but something about the away doesn't work.

[HisIceness]

Hate everything about the Ducks jerseys. The logo, the orange, everything.

Never understood the dislike for what they wore post Disney, but whatever.

Think it would look a 1000x better without the orange shoulders.

 

[DrandonBudinsky]

I personally thought the Ducks hit a homerun with the 25th anniversary set and always hoped that was signaling a return to those in the future.

But we all know the owners are emphasizing the use of orange, so these new all orange sets are a good compromise away from the Webbed-D crest identity that most folks weren’t fans of.

 

[Sgt Schultz]

My own opinion, which is worth nothing, is they are both improvements but at the same time both missed the mark and for the same reason: color.

The Kings would have been better served to go with purple as a primary, They could have coupled that with silver and black to avoid the overlap with the Lakers. Like I said, they are better than what they replace, but they also go back to a time of "great, another Raider knockoff."

Ducks would have been better off going with darker pants. Replace black with their original eggplant and use that for the pants.

BTW, I normally like the contrast shoulder yokes give, but the orange ones on the white jerseys create orange overload. Maybe the orange theme will look better on the ice, who knows?

 

[Machinehead]

Right, something closer to those reverse retros they did.

I thought those were fine and pretty obviously inspired these, so I'm not sure why they didn't stick with it.

The original Mighty Ducks whites had white shoulders.

Like, this is much nicer. Basically this with some of the new elements incorporated is how they should do the whites. I think that would be a strong set.

 

[DrandonBudinsky]

It’s that shoulder yoke. From this frame, it just seems that element is just floating above the rest of the white jersey. It needs something else to anchor it.

 

[Caps8112]

They really wearing orange helmets? If so they can be banned from the league along with LAs silver helmet and Vegas gold helmet. Just dumb

 

[The Burdened]

It's just too much doggone orange and they will never be the "orange" team in the NHL no matter how hard they try to force it.
Ducks were so close to perfection and instead are bottom 5.
You already know why, it doesn't need to be said.

 

[Turin]

ORANGE PANTS?

Anaheim. This isn’t hard. WTF are you doing.

And why is LA’s waist stripe so huge?

What is wrong with you people

 

[tny760]

our guy @All The Kings Men claims its different from the previous glitter which i also thought was really obnoxious

Rumor: - Kings rebranding with a new logo?

I need someone to photoshop/AI a trashcan in place of that cargo cart

I genuinely love both jerseys. Idk what yall are on about

 

[BKarchitect]

The whole Orange County thing is way too on the nose for me but for what they are…which is…well…orange to the max…I don’t hate the Ducks new look.

The shade of orange looks way better in the video than the over-saturated neon lit photos. And the orange/gold/white/black I think works pretty well. I actually like the white jerseys a lot.

I get why the font is divisive but the subtle rounded edges match what they did with the logo where the sticks also now have some slight curve to them. I feel like at least there is intention here.

And I’m sorry…I know some here are just annoyed that multiple teams use the same colors - but I think the Ducks did a good job of making this look very different than the Flyers. I don’t see these jerseys and suddenly have some confusion with the look Philly has had for 50 years.

I'm very here for them doing eggplant and orange one of these days. Why not both? Now that would be an iconic identity.
