Design Help

[cwarnar]

PLAIN WHITE... That is the current RGT Pro set up I'm wearing... I got an amazing deal on the pads as they were a Demo set thru Time Out Source for sports on a flash sale... I wanted to demo the pads and gloves to get a good feeling for them before investing a custom set.  I'm still gonna wait to see the G4's but after my 12th skate in my RGT set everything is perfectly dialed in and I'm loving the set.

I've always worn a combo of Black/White or Red and am partial to staying in those colors.  Due to being a shift worker I don't have a regular team, mostly subbing in rec leagues or playing pick up.  But after seeing some of the retro tan sets Warrior is churning out, there's an outside shot I'd go that route.

My last 3 sets:

I'd like to toss it out there to the board to offer some design input and thoughts on color schemes and set ups... These are the three I've done... mostly inspired by Jeff Glass' set and @IPv6Freely's nice Passau set

Oh C'mon, where's your sense of adventure?

Wow... that is far too busy... As you can probably tell from my other sets, I like mostly solid colors with accents...

I LOVE #1. I also like #3 for obvious reasons  

[cwarnar]

@IPv6Freely I was never sure crazy about the stock RGT graphic... Love the looks of the classic.  After spending some good time on Warriors Instagram page it can look amazing if done right. 

And 3 is my fave too. Something about the contrast of the black sliding surface with a white based pad

So my second suggestion is definitely a no then eh?

These are the retro tan mock ups...

Probably still too busy for what you're after.

That's actually not too bad... I'd make the following subtle changes.  Something about 4 knee bar accents always has bugged me since I first saw the RGT line

Still think #1 and #3 from the first post are better.

Just to be clear, for MY pads, they're all black except the face itself. Not sure if that's what you meant or not or whatever. The basic premise was that I didn't want white anywhere but on the face. 

At the time I had JUST joined my new team (with the Chicago Admiral Ackbar unis) and had no idea how long that would last because In the previous 5 years I'm not sure if I'd stayed with the same team for more than a couple seasons (3 seasons a year here). I needed something that could easily change colors. Black/white with easily changed red accents was the way I went. At THIS point if I were ordering new pads I'd be going a bit more crazy.

Yup... I will go Black every where else on the sides and back of the pad.  I don't like white as it has discoloring issues.  I always liked this on Price's CCM sets, mostly white but the sides and back have a pop of color.

I still think you should go with my Miami U inspired set.

I still think I like #1 best. Something about the angled red accent and the warrior logo (rather than wordmark) makes the design pop.

Hmm... warrior pads look way better with knee rolls.

I agree... Another take on your fave

I like those too, but the red loses its pop because its now become just an outline/border, you know? 

[southpawtendy48]

Love #1 and #2. I’m more of a solid colored pad goalie myself.

No. 1 from your first post is great - best of what you posted.

@cwarnar - I like the last ones with the white boot

not sure if this is too much red but its a different idea

That's not bad at all... I'd likely swap the red accent by the outer roll for black tho

[cwarnar]

After playing with the customizer a little and seeing some feedback in this thread... I'm down to these 2 right now...
