Hello folks, happy Christmas Eve Eve! I wanted to do something holiday related for the intro today, so I decided to look back and find all the Christmas themed concepts to appear on HJC. By my count there have been six such concepts (let me know if I missed any, I'll add them to the post), which I've arranged in chronological order below.
Concept from December 26th, 2011 |
Back in 2011, Stéphane created a hypothetical outdoor game called the Christmas Classic between the North Pole Reindeers and the Santa's Dwarfs. The jerseys he designed were Christmas-y but not too crazy, and he paired them with a couple of great wordmark logos (I especially like the antlers on the Reindeers wordmark).
Concept from December 12th, 2012 |
A year later we got a trio of Christmas jerseys from Bren. He created his own logos, a Santa hat and a wrapped present, which he used on three colourful jerseys.
Concept from December 20th, 2012 |
Also from 2012 is Joey's concept based off of Santa's red suit. The belt stripe and back numbers are great additions, but what really topped this off was the inclusion of Santa's big white beard.
Concept from December 25th, 2014 |
We know jump ahead a couple years for David's Los Angeles Kings Christmas sweater. I could easily see the Kings wearing this if they were a minor league team, the knitted sweater effect is perfect, and I love the snow on the numbers and the Santa hat on the burger king logo.
Concept from December 2nd, 2015 |
Last year we got a look at this design that Niklas created for the Hamburg Freezers, which the Freezers actually wore for Christmas in 2014. I love the winter-y scene on this jersey, it makes perfect sense for a team called the "Freezers".
Concept from January 6th, 2016 |
Our final holiday concept is Jay's Augsburger Panther Christmas jersey from last January. My favourite features of this concept are the Christmas tree side panels and the bow in the arm and sock stripes. they're both very unique ideas.
