Feels like we need a non football related offseason thread šŸ˜€. I bought a new shirt. Can’t make up my mind if the logo is straight or crooked. Half the images online have the top of the ā€˜A’ level. The other half have it tilting. What do you say? Debating if I should return it. It was out of the Peter Millar custom shop so it wasn't cheap. Maybe if it were plain white I wouldn't care, but the lines make it obvious that the logo is tilted.

To me the letter should be straight at the top, and presumably the bottom. The curved banner at the bottom is just that curved and it appears they tried to make the banner straight on the bottom throwing off the entire image.

The top of the ā€Aā€ is touching two different horizontal lines. Therefor slight tilt.
Right i guess the question is was this logo intended to be tilted or level? That logo was before my time :). Google images is inconclusive. Some are tilted. Some are not.

If it’s supposed to be that way or not, it would be driving me and my borderline OCD nuts, and I would not be able to enjoy the shirt šŸ˜†

Martin's is a small chain department store out of Oxford, AL. I'm pretty sure I saw something in the Pell City store with that logo recently.

PS: They have a Florence location. I see you're in Huntsville.
I’m in Florence and Martin’s here has trainloads of Bama gear. If it was me, I’d take the shirt back (unless you had to order it) and check to see if any shirts like it were tilted also, or if it was just a one-off.

The OP said where he got it and it appears to be an online retailer. My reply about Martin's was to a different poster about a different logo.
