I'd go back to the originals or these.
I love the sleeves on the teal and white sweaters.

As for the current sweaters I think the black jersey is too plain. I am fine with the orange on our sweaters though I prefered the old grey.

I don't think they spend much time color correcting the press photos. Seems like they go straight from the camera to the web... and in 15 minutes at that.


It's definitely a problem on CSN's end, their camera/broadcast crew most likely. The real jersey has a green tint to its teal and it's very bright. For some reason CSN always winds up making the teal look dark blue. You can notice the difference when watching Sharks games on another network like NBCSP where the teal actually looks "TEAL". Better yet, go to a game or hold up your replica or whatever and you tell me how different the color looks.

CSN is the main broadcast network for the San Jose Sharks and they mess up the team's color...go figure.

I would change the lower stripe on the teal one, probably to black at the center, then teal then white. I dunno why but the thick teal stripe doesnt break it up enough fo rme

something like this, i dunno I used a cream as well instead of a clean white

Worcester wore special theme jersey over the weekend that people loved. Black, teal shoulders, Worcester's logo (SJ's old). All that needed to be changed to make a nice 3rd (or our road) would be a lace and shorten the teal stripe at the hem.

Yeah, what was inside those teal stripes? Some kind of logo or patch or something? But otherwise, those jerseys were pretty sweet.

alright, here's another ... I flipped the striping so the larger inside stripe doesn't look so awkward

I've never been a fan of having white as outer striping for home/dark jerseys ...

It was a Special Olympics themed jersey so their logos where in that part. The jerseys went over with the fans big time

What's another color that would go well on the jersey besides grey or orange?

Like.. Grey is a great color (seeing as sharks tend to be greyish)

They don't have photos from the game up yet, but here is a really crappy screenshot from a low quality video. Pretty awesome if you ask me.

In my eye the new colors and logo completely changed this team's identity. Most of the other 29 teams have only gone through uniform changes, not complete logo overhauls, changing the logo means changing the teams identity. It wasn't enough that they had to change the logo, they also changed the teal to a brighter greener teal and on top of that included a whole new color that the team wasn't even born with.

How the hell do Shark filled Pacific waters bring up thoughts of the color orange???? Perhaps it would make more sense if it was Red instead of orange....but that wouldn't look good either.

Old Uniform: Great White Sharks = Grey, White
Pacific Ocean = Deep Aquatic teal

Dug up an old video, this was when the new logo was introduced.



Those were some interesting concepts.

Actually, most NHL teams have had logo changes in their history...

orange is a complimentary color of teal ... simple as that

doesn't mean it had to be included though

I like the current unis a lot more than the old ones, especially the logo. It's a much fresher and more energetic look than before.

Your reply reminded me of this rant i read awhile ago on the use of teal and orange in current Hollywood movies.

It's also part of the San Jose city flag. That may have helped influence the decision for orange.
