Anyways, your headdress idea has been done and it looks like utter crap. So would ANY Redskins design with black in it.

Well it's also how it's presented. I actually like the red helmet with the two feathers, but I'd prefer to see it in burgundy instead of red. My first take on it though was it looked like the Chiefs logo.... an arrow made out of feathers.

I don't like the Silver helmet and simply putting 3 feathers on each side and calling it a head dress is not what I was talking about. I said make the face mask burgundy, put a gold band around the face mask from ear to ear like the real head dresses have, then have a whole lot of feathers (white) in gold trim flowing back to the back of the helmet. When looking at the back of the helmet have it look like a real head dress.

[quote=redsk1;785613]I really have a problem w/ that list. GB i'm ok w/. Chargers at #11? Chargers uni's have got to be top 5. TB, Chi, NE, Indi ahead of the Skins...? TB's are still bad imo. I like NE's old uni's better than the new. Chi's uni are ok, but not above average. The Jet's are not great by any means.[/quote]

The list looked pretty good to me, but it's all subjective.

I probably would have had the Steelers a little higher, not a big fan of the Chargers unless they're wearing the powder blue jerseys, Skins should be top 10.

Black is tired, unless it's your primary color I think too many teams over use it.

Re: Redskins Uniforms
 

I would hate if the skins wore black.. Seriously I don't want to change much but I would upgrade the style like Detroit and ARZ did

Re: Redskins Uniforms
 

And the Panthers and Broncos are way far down on this list imo.

Browns at 5?? Bears at 2?? No way

They are dead on with Dallas, seriously match your damn unis.

I agree with his assessment of the Skins 2002, 75th Anniversary uniforms. I had hoped they would have been adopted as our full time home uniforms.

Re: Redskins Uniforms
 

[quote=SBXVII;785609]I'd like to think if the team starts winning then the uni's are a moot point. lol. I like what they did with the burgundy and gold this year. All I'm argueing mostly is the fact that people are against black and the simply reason is "because it's not one of the team colors." All I'm saying is be fair. If black should not be used because it's not the team color then neither should white. The colors are Burgundy and Gold. Period. Now white was used to make the numbers show up better and then it was added to the pants and socks as trim. For some reason during the Gibbs1 era the white jersey some how found its way aboard. So if white can find its way into the uni's then black as a replacement could also. Just don't say "it's not the team colors." Just say "I'm used to white and would prefer it not changed to black."

I could handle a change if the team wanted to. They don't want to change thats fine too. Some of the concepts presented were a little off the chain and some I think are nice. I actually like the black uni, but whatever. As someone else pointed out maybe if they used more burgundy and had black trim. I think the helmet is awsome with the team logo taking up the whole helmet vs. just a circle on each side of the helmet. Use gold or use burgundy instead.[/quote]

As I said earlier, white is a neutral color used by almost every team in the league for purposes of distinguishing between the two teams on the field. Normally (although not all the time) the home team wears their main colors on their jerseys while the visiting team wears white. Not always the case certainly, but that is the purpose for teams wearing a white jersey, because it's neutral and stands out better.

Re: Redskins Uniforms
 

If they would change over full-time to the 2002 uniform, that would please most of the fanbase. We could still have our uniform now as an alternate....

Yeah they did but still, if we went back to those we would look too much like FSU.. I like our Unis the way they are, maybe tweak the design and logo a little. Detroit and ARZ come to mind when they upgraded theirs.

Re: Redskins Uniforms
 

The 75th anniversary throwbacks were tight, but they are kinda ruined to me now since they remind me of the Spurrier era.

We will NEVER look like FSU. They'll always look like US.

Cardinals were a downgrade. Too much black and unnecessary piping and side panels and lets not even talk about those horrible black jerseys. I'd call San Francisco an upgrade by returning to what looks good. Detroit does look great. I'm glad they removed the black and put some navy blue in place of it. The random black was a mistake.

The Bills are getting newer uniforms, rumored to have a white helmet. Lets hope they get rid of the worst uniforms in the NFL the right way. Using their royal blue throwback uniforms with a white helmet like in the OJ Simpson years would be great looking.

The Kelly era Bills were better looking than the ones they have now, those are down right ugly! I do like the white helmet that would be a good change. What if the skins used an alternate jersey like Denver and Chicago with Orange? Maybe we can have a Gold jersey IDK?

Agreed, they look awesome.

I think we'll get those jerseys with the helmet posted above. Jim Kelly wore it early in his career, as the statements in the one link I posted hinted at. It also said they're keeping the charging buffalo.

Most important thing to me is that the helmet not change. I am partial to the helmet i grew up with that also happens to be the one we won 3 Super bowls in.

As for the shirt and pants...I would like to see white jersey and burgandy pants at home like it was in Gibbs I. And burgandy jersey with gold pants on the road. basically i would get rid of the white pants and replace them with gold.

Re: Redskins Uniforms
 

I honestly love the 70th anniversary jersey style.the new gold pants(more like yellow.i love them)the 75th anniversary jerseys are nice too.they should keep the current look I hope Nike doesn't mess them up.far as the team name change I have an idea....I think "redskins"far as that moniker is an somewhat offensive term.the logo has class in my opinion.take Cleveland Indians logo it's super offensive.i suggest maybe they change the name to the Washington"Natives"as in native Americans.just a thought.i know the redskins name has been around for a while.and whomever designed that new logo w/the spear I love it!
