The Bengals whites look so much better with the new change. The new collar really looks like it's supposed to be there, and it makes the shoulders look a lot more cohesive. I really hope they don't change for a long time and I really, really hope they are done forever with black jersey/white pants and white jersey/black pants.

I know the Bengals jerseys get a lot of hate but they're visually distinctive enough that you'll never confuse them with another team. I understand why people might not like the uniform and say they're too busy or literal, but anyone who doesn't like the helmet can get the gently caress right out.

Sweet. Looking forward to the pics!




For $35 shipped, I can't complain. The numbers had some dirt on them, and the Bills logo on the back is slightly crooked, other than that (and the way these awful Nike jerseys fit and the ghastly collar) it's pretty solid.

I got a batch of Cam Newton "Nykee" jerseys from Shootjerseys recently, I'll be posting up some pictures with comparisons to my official old Reebok one.

In short, they still haven't gotten the Panthers coloration right, the old logo is still in use, and build quality is incredibly variable (3 jerseys came with the full mesh consistent with the Reebok style, 2 had the mesh vents. 3 had Plastic NFL logos on the neck, 2 had cloth ones. Only one came with the in-neck "Keep Pounding" stitching)

Another question entirely: I noticed on the NFLshop website, depending on the arm, the Nike swoosh is reversed? Do the actual jerseys have that? Seems pretty damned stupid on Nike's part.

The swoosh looks reversed so it will show up facing the correct way when they're showing a replay of the guy running.

Other than the NFL logos and swoosh, some of my jerseys came out with the exact style as the Reeboks (knockoff on left, real on right)
I've never been able to get the right Carolina blue from any of these places, which is why I hesitated to get the alternate jersey, but now you can see in full regale the differences in color:


As far as the Jersey style, it looks like they did a much better job emulating the Nike style with the Women's jersey I got. It's black, but if you look closely you can see the mesh vents with the solid front. Also notice the stitching in the collar.

It appears as if they did a better job with either black jerseys or newer types, as I had a Steelers Antonio Brown jersey that also looks pretty good. Maybe it's smaller batches or bigger market teams?


They decided to use different NFL logos (one is plastic, one is stitched) in between the run I guess...


I can't complain too much though, I got them all for around $25 apiece.

It's a lovely knockoff. They probably are using up all the logos they already have or until enough complaints come in before they do it. All the Nike jerseys should technically have the logo redesign.

The NFL only allows you two uses of an alternate jersey per year. Unlimited use on alternate pants for some reason.

Honestly I've never noticed the difference before, but the Cam jersey is Carolina Blue as it matches the UNC color. The Panthers apparently wear some other shade that I don't know the name of, which is where the problem lies with the knockoff manufacturer.

I believe it's technically referred to as "electric blue" (in case you forgot the Panthers were 90s as heck). I'd say it's kind of a cross between Tar Heel blue and Hornets teal, which has probably helped it not look super dated.

And I thought the Panthers opted out of all of Nike's updated stuff anyway, so unless you really need the new logo/swooshes/KEEP POUNDING go ahead and get an old Reebok one and you should be fine.

And wow, those collars/flywire look hilariously bad on the knockoffs.

If Nike ever gets their poo poo together I'll totally buy the Limited jersey for the Seahawks. I don't even care what player, it's just the right level of ridiculous (i.e. not TOO far, like Oregon/Maryland/that Notre Dame alt). I'm also going to buy like all of the 90s retro NBA jerseys they are coming out with.

If they release a custom limited I'll go legit, but no way I'm paying 150$ for Green or Dalton. Nothing against them, but I prefer defensive players. As soon as they release info one way or another I'm pulling the trigger.

Looks like 14 teams have limited jerseys now, not including Seahawks or Bengals, and they have about two options for each team.

The real question is Atkins, Dunlap or Reggie Nelson...

The Bills' new collar has this too. It doesn't look good and I always think the players are wearing neck rolls during games.
