I like the lions throwbacks too. Good colors.

I decided to redesign PSU's football uniforms for them.

Not a fan of the number font, but aside from that, those Unis are killer. Well done!

Thanks. I love the way the helmets turned out.

I was not crazy about it either. I was going for a certain look but I don't think I nailed it. MS Paint will do that to you. :D

I was aiming for the numbers that Ohio State had on their Pro Combats a couple years back. The 49ers also used these numbers a long time ago.

By the way, Petershwin is a common Amish name. Fitting for Penn State.

i love the bucs throwbacks, get me a spurrier jersey

the browns should have thrown the orange pants back in the mix. when is the last time they wore orange pants?

So what do we think they're wearing tonight? I'm going with White on White.

Monkeydad 08-09-2012 10:05 AM

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 
I'm guessing all white too.

Buffalo wore blue last time we played them on the road. We wore the white-on-gold that game actually, but I'm expecting all white for preseason, nothing exciting until the regular season.

RGIII 08-09-2012 09:26 PM

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 
Yeah. I'm not liking the Nike horsecollar on the jerseys. The "V" or Flywire section should've been dyed to match the rest of the collar. I thought that was the initial design. Maybe it was changed for all teams because of the varying fabrics used between the elastic and the Flywire didn't allow for a seamless color match (see Redskins "pink-colored" flywire).

skinsguy 08-14-2012 09:07 AM

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 
So, we wore White on Gold for the Buffalo game. I know several of you guys here really liked it!

Its going to take me awhile to get used to that look though. I think I would like the look a bit more with the gold color was more "gold" than yellow. But, that's just me. Maybe the throw back gold pants with the white jerseys for away games. But, I also look at it like this: it's change, and change in Washington is always good (no pun intended...lol!) RGIII ushers in, what we hope, to be a new winning era in D.C. But, I have to say, the "butter fly" collar on the jerseys HAVE to go! To me, it looks like they didn't finish coloring the collars. Maybe if the bottom part was gold, it might look better? I dunno. I can get used to the white on gold/yellow, but those jerseys kind of annoy me.

Monkeydad 08-14-2012 09:46 AM

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 
I think since everyone hates these collars so much, we'll see them gone next season. There's a ton of public hatred being voiced for these things and it's well-deserved.

OK, Nike, we know your technologically-superior collars are there now. We can't miss them. Now, make them blend in with the uniforms so your products don't look like ass.

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 
I don't mind the butterfly collars as you guys call them. At least on the Burgundy jerseys, they are all solid so you don't notice them. I just don't like the black shoes on the away uniforms with the gold/yellow pants. They should go more team colors... burgundy shoes or more yellow.

Yeah, the home jerseys are OK, but I would have rather had the collars all white than the butterfly collar.

i thought all they did was request that the design on the collar remain the same in look and proportion (unlike the texans-same look/different proportion). i was wrong.

have you noticed with the the striped socks we wear how every player wears them differently for example rg3 hardly had any burgundy at all on his and fletcher had a whole leg of it and they wear the stripes at various heights too whether it be by the calf or low by the ankle. I dont mind it, it shows individuality, just no sean taylor stripes haha loved those

basically, if your collar was not the same color as your jersey, it has been ruined by nike.

most look stupid because of the horseshoe shape, but teams like the texans look stupid because the collar is so damn wide/thick/bold

Dallas and Oakland too. Los panda hit it..any team that had same-colored collars before is safe from the disco curse.

Dallas, aside from the traditional mismatched blues and silver-green pants, has some big issues with their jerseys. Look at the sleeve stripes, especially on the QBs with longer sleeves. That TE in the background has sleeve stripes that look like "=" equals signs.

Romo looks like a nerd:

The Colts still have stripe issues but they don't seem to be as bad the Reebok jerseys:

The hell? I hope you're JUST talking about the collar.


Not even speaking from my bias, the Cowboys have one of the worst uniforms in the league. They use about 3 or 4 non-matching shades of blue, a silver helmet with that green-silver shade for pants that was designed in the 1970s because of bad colorizing on TV sets of the time and random black outlining the stripes on the jerseys, which are now all F'ed up by Nike. They're a mess.

Count me in as a hater for the collars. On a side note that Romo uni .... WTF is up with the silver, light blue, and white stripes on the pants, white jersey with light blue numbers..... then silver and dark blue helmets? It seems they are running with 4 different colors.... white, silver, light blue, and dark blue.

Maybe its just me but their uni's look screwed up.
