Personally, and I may more than likely be wrong, I thought there were size limits on logos.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Not any that I know of...

I like the new jerseys, they seem like they would be more comfortable... and look better because the patches and logos are all perfectly aligned because, well they are all computer printed... no actual patches or stitching

I thought the new shirts were really nice......if you throw on spandex shorts and rode a bike.  Nah, nice shirts and the 900 Global logo was HUGE on the shirt Jaros was wearing.

You're probably thinking of the rules on positioning of patches.

I'm not trying to be a prick in pointing this out, I just think the huge logo is tacky in every aspect. It looks like a cycling jersey.

I think the jersey's looked good for the most part.  The jersey Chris wore in the round of 8 was ugly but to each there own.  They are optional this year.  Jeff Carter posted a picture of one of his on his website and blog I will just say Sic!

I see nothing wrong with them.  Reminds me of the Pro Bass fishing.  They where shirts similar.  Was good to see a bowling ball company (Track)commercial too.  Even though it was pretty lame, LOL.

Not certain if the regional standards differ all that much from national one but I remember reading this rule during a regional and thought to myself, "that's be one damned big logo".  After seeing what a logo FAR larger than this rule specifies is illegal along side the PBA logo, it's clear that the PBA will do what they have to to remain profitable.  And, who can really blame them?  However, at around $95ish per shirt, they're gonna price themselves out of the market, IMHO.

Well, it's cheaper than some baseball & hockey jersey's I've seen.  Some hard core fans will buy them.  I also don't mind the logo's being bigger.  Will definitely know what ball company guys are throwing w/out having to go to PBA.com, LOL.

   Pretty soon they are going to look like the Nascar drivers with logos all over the place.

I thought they really looked tacky.  Seriously, does anyone buy bowling balls because of the tour anymore???

I thought that was what jump started the Cell being so popular last year. However, I'm more than likely wrong.

These shirts are printed using a process called dye sublimation.
I don't know how Gemini does this, but I know that a supplier I was going to use for this process produces goods that feel like they've got iron on heat transfers on the polyester shirts. I don't personally like that feel.

Has anyone felt the new shirts? Are they stiff? or soft? Do they breathe? Just curious...
