I dunno, I like how MLB caps just have that part black, helps keep the glare out of your eyes. It's helpful to the people actually getting drafted. "I'm so happy to be a Jaguar. Can't wait to move to... Jacksonville."

Why don't the Dolphins just start releasing gear with their new logo? It's been leaked about a dozen times now. Anyone who doesn't know what it looks like probably isn't going to notice until the draft anyway.

I guess they want the new gear released after their dumb uniform reveal party, which is a week before the draft.

More clues about the Vikings uniforms became available today. It looks like the jersey will be a darker purple. Supposedly the pantone color didn't change, but the jersey material is a flat purple instead of the shiny purple on their previous uniforms. The collar appears to only be purple, so the awful two tone Nike collar is gone and there is a darker yellow/gold scripted Vikings wordmark below the collar. I haven't found anywhere where the 6th clue has been posted yet, but so far the redesign is looking very good. I think the helmets may end up being a flat/matte purple, which would match the uniforms. I'm kind of over the flat/matte craze, but it could be a good way to achieve a darker looking purple.

Hazo posted:I'm confused, I thought the "shininess" was pretty much eliminated with the new Nike materials, and I don't think Minnesota was one of the teams that kept their old designs. The Nike jerseys were definitely less shiny than the Reebok jerseys due to the materials being used and by old jerseys I was referring to the Reebok ones and not the uniforms with the horrible Nike collars that they wore last year. Something about the pictures of the new jerseys makes the purple look darker as seen in the image attached. Also, the Vikings posted the word mark, which will be just below the collar. It wasn't of the 3 clues being released today.

Only in the front part of the collar and I think they are elastic stuff, but they always seem to reflect light and look terrible. They are very visible in this photo

I'm not sure why they thought it was a good idea to make jerseys look like polo shirts.

Has anyone actually gone back and looked at the amount of holding calls this season and compared them to previous years, since that was ostensibly the point of the NIKETM FLYWIRE TM stuff

I'll rant here. I'm tired of the half assed efforts I've seen by New Era in terms of making a good Browns hat. You seriously have a lot more to work with, and all that we see as fans is some lazyily made up Brown hat with the words "Cleveland Browns" in orange, Tired of it. There's some amazing things that could be put on a hat instead of some really lazily done effort. I only get pissed about this because I see so many other NFL teams get some awesome throwback/alternate gear, and nothing is done for the Browns ever. Also gently caress SNAPBACK HATS, and gently caress the Young Money hip-hop artists that made that a relevant style again. That poo poo should have been left far, far back in the 90's. It looks stupid as gently caress, and it's not even ironically cool. Give me a velco backing or a fitted/one size hat over that stupid piece of poo poo plastic in the back.

Good timing on hat chat. I got another one that just came in today, and I think I finally have a sense of what size I should get from now on (taking into account the actual size variability): the one they don't make that would go between 7 1/4 and 7 3/8  . Just a little flex fit to them would keep me from going insane.As far as designs go I hate a lot of the Raiders ones too. The really annoying thing I've found is that a few of the ones I've liked ended up being snapback only designs. On the plus side they finally made basic one with a black and white (instead of color) NFL logo, but it's exclusive to Lids  Edit: y'all got some throwbacks too so at least it's not nothing: http://www.amazon.com/Cleveland-Browns-Black-59Fifty-Fitted/dp/B008RU1DWY/ http://www.amazon.com/Cleveland-Browns-Tone-59Fifty-Fitted/dp/B008RTTGYW/ japtor fucked around with this message at 02:57 on Apr 6, 2013 |

I've been against white on whites ever since Joe Montana played for the Chiefs. I can't really explain it and I can't find the best picture to illustrate things, but somehow those uniforms always brought out how tiny his legs were. It just looked really awkward somehow.

You can kind of see it here I guess: It's definitely not a good look for the Chiefs. I think it's a combination of their socks being mostly white and the prevalence of Yellow in the uniform. There's just not enough red anywhere in that getup, as a whole. I'm pretty sure even red-on-red would look better.

I'm hoping that the Vikings figure out some way to get rid of their awful white on white road uniforms. I know that people were mixed on the purple pants, but I greatly prefer that look to the blandness of white on white road uniforms.

Maybe purple with absolutely massive yellow or white stripes? Yeah I know it's a lovely mspaint but I think this kinda solves both issues and it'd look really distinctive in motion.

I'm open to bringing back the purple pants. I think the all-purple look he Vikings tried with their 2006 era unis didn't work becuase of the 'dazzle' proprietary fabric Reebok was using...the gleam and shininess makes the whole thing look like a 90's superhero getup at a birthday party. Same holds true for the current all-red Cardinals look; monochrome just doesn't look good in that shiny material. If the Vikings are indeed switching to the matte fabric that we've seen Nike use in college football, I think it could turn out looking really good. For whatever reason the matte monochrome comes off as more professional and mature in my head I guess. If they go that route I doubt we'd end up with 'purple pajamas' again.

Management for the Vikings has been fairly smart about a number of things. Very patiently working through the stadium situation, getting a GM and not interfering with him even doing a decent upgrade on the logo. I suspect that the new unis will be a version of the "Classic" look, with the LSU stripes on white and the same kind of armband stripes they had before. I'd like it if they move the TV numbers off the shoulders and on to the arm bands  I really don't like the purple pants.

Purple pants or not, the Vikings need to do something to break up the monotony of their current road uniforms. Maybe a thicker stripe going down the side of the pants would work, but I just don't like the blandness of their road uniforms. I think that going back to the LSU stripes on the road is likely. They've historically used both lateral and horizontal stripes on different road uniforms, but with how current NFL jerseys basically have no sleeves, I think that the horizontal/LSU stripes would look a lot better. The Vikings seem to be very aware that the fans want to go back towards the traditional uniforms and everything I've seen so far makes me feel confident that they'll come up with a look that is easily recognizable as the Vikings, but will likely be tastefully updated. Then again tasteful and Nike are two words that don't often go together.

The Seahawks new unis annoy me but they are at least better then the ones they had before. I like the blue shade better and it at least has some distinctive marks. The "beastquake" era home unis were dull. Except for the bright green ones. Those ruled.

Jim Mora Jr retired those immediately because the team lost the only game they played in them (against a good Chicago team). One more reason to never stop saying, 'gently caress Jim Mora Jr.' edit: Not sure why I thought they played that game in Chicago. Whatever, the point stands.
