The NFL rules on the helmets wouldn't let them get that crazy with the throwback.

It was only a couple years ago that the NFL decided to approve only one helmet per year for each team. Before that the Packers wore a plain brown helmet with their old dark blue and yellow uniforms. I would think they'd be allowed to add stitch effects to that one? maybe?

God these are so close to awesome, but they completely dropped the ball on the jersey. Those goddamn Adidas patterns on the shoulders and chest clash so badly with the rest of it.

So is the new place to get jerseys aliexpress? I see jersey101 is still around but their prices are a bit higher than when I last bought (looking like $55 now!). I saw a few people have said they've bought from aliexpress but does the quality compare to jersey101?

I ordered a Cam Wake jersey from Anna Jersey Store off aliexpress and it came today. Overall I'm pretty happy with it. The aqua of the jersey is a bit darker than the real thing, more in line with the color of the older style jerseys, but the stitching and the fit are really good.


You can't really read anything on the jock tag, but that's a minor detail.

I know this is the 'jersey' chat thread, but it seems to be the place for general football related apparel as well. Also couldn't think of a better place to put this so here it is.

Being from Hamilton means I get gifted CFL Ticats gear for christmas all the time. I received this Puma branded tshirt a long time ago from my grandparents (2002 or 2003). I've never worn it, it fits terribly but more importantly I dont GET it.

The design is the Tiger Cats logo, most of it, printed on the front of a white shirt near the bottom, and theres a printed on dotted line cutting off the bottom part of the logo, on the back of the shirt is the continuation of the logo below another grey dotted line.

Was this a thing Puma did back then? is there some sort of symbolism I've completely missed all these years?

"So, get this. We take the loving ICONIC Hamilton Tigercats logo and we -*zzzzzzrrrp* - shave off the bottom of the logo. We slap that poo poo on the back of the shirt. People are all 'I know that, but from WHAT?!' You're engaged, you wanna see where it's going so you stare that guy down. Then the guy turns around and you see the rest of the logo and you're all "HELL YEAH! loving TIGER loving CATS YO!!'"

You cant fold it in any way to get the logo to line up, if you hold the shirt up to the light the lines match up and you see the whole logo but thats not a thing....

Yeah, order it. I organized a group buy with some friends and the only problem I had was one jersey had a small black smudge on it. They immediately refunded my money when I complained. We ordered at least 15 jerseys in that batch.

Always liked the white Texans helmet, their logo looks a million times better on a white helmet. Back before the franchise started all of the preview helmets were white, then they came out with the blue, and I was like what the hell? That blue makes half your logo nearly invisible.

So the AFC South might have three teams with white helmets and blue logos, and then the Jaguars gradient.

The Browns are supposedly changing the uniform, but the helmet is supposed to stay the same outside of maybe a color swap for a different shade of orange. As a Browns fan I hope that the uniforms fail hard, because I love our classic look, and I think its a dumb move that might just alienate long time fans even more especially if they do something really stupid like put a logo on the helmet. If Haslem wants to bring in younger fans with something new, and exciting perhaps he should start by attempting to field a competent team that can make a run in the playoffs. Kids aren't going to flock to a loser no matter how stupidly modern the uniforms are.

The Rams are changing soon, probably a blue and white throwback, and possibly going back to the original shades of blue and gold for the primary as well.

Kind of appropriate timing considering everything else going on with that franchise.

Nostalgia4Butts posted:

Got any pictures? As a Pats fan I don't see them ever changing, considering what they've done in these uniforms vs the previous ones. It's a shame, I hate the Flying Elvis. Our current uniforms would look so nice if you replaced the Elvis with an updated Pat Patriot.

I could see them doing something more like the Vikings than the Jaguars, where they'll try to do something modern while playing on traditional themes, but then they'll probably use a bit too much orange, give them an unnecessary unique font and number set, and subtly incorporate a Mastiff or chains into the design where it won't be enough to look bad, but will be just noticeable enough to be distracting.

If they do move back to LA, then it would make sense to go back to their old color scheme and uniforms to capitalize on nostalgia and win back fans. I feel really bad for fans in St. Louis though.
