Re: New "Uniform" idea

I always hated how our official colors are the B&G, yet we're using YELLOW as a secondary color. I know its been like this for a long time, but I wouldn't mind seeing the yellow in our unis change to gold instead. Like the facemask, helmet, the stripes on the jerseys and pants too. This is why I really, REALLY liked the 2002 70th anniversary uniforms. Its no wonder Zorn was confused about it when he got here, honestly.

Oh, here we go, excuses, excuses, excuses..... just having fun. I too don't know why the colors Burgandy and Yellow. Everyone says the colors are Burgandy and Gold. If anything they should start using the Gold. I might also go with some sort of metal flake Burgandy on the helmit to make it pop a little.

These Uni's are nice. Since time imagined the colors are Burgandy and Gold(Yellow), it would be nice to actually see Gold in the color scheme.

The uniform designs are great! But these beauties are not for next week or this season. After we get the new GM and HC in place, then we should have new uniforms to symbolize a new era of winning football.

Seriously, Summo, these designs are outstanding! They are updated while preserving the classic look of the Redskins franchise. I truly think you should send them to Dan Snyder for his consideration.

P.S. The shoe design could use a little oomph! If you feel like doing it, I'd like to see what you could come up with for them.

Whether it's wishful thinking or not (about the new GM), I completely agree with you. I know tradition is huge for most skins fans, but you've got to admit that that era is over. I was only 2 years old when they last won the super bowl, so I hope y'all can understand why I'm not particularly attached to their current unis myself. Next season is the time to do it if it's going to happen.

Geez -- thanks for making the rest of us feel so old.

Seriously, I like the unis; does the helmet still have the stripes on the top? I actually think it might look less busy without them and I would be fine with that modification to the helmet (unlike the awful feather-duster version that was pictured in the other thread).

Summo the designs are great, now all we need is for the production on the field to match the design.

Re: New "Uniform" idea

I was at a dinner the other night and we talked about the skins doing something at the end of the year to change thing up like this... Great uniform summo you should send it to them, never know they might use it.

During that dinner I thought why not change everything the name and all just keep the colors.

Re: New "Uniform" idea

I like that design.

IMO tho, i always wanted the team to go back to the 70th anniversary ones...the yellow pants and maroon top, with the helmet that had the spear. Those jerseys were the best....would love to see them now.

Re: New "Uniform" idea

I actually like it. Though I would change the helmet/logo from a person to either the spear or war feathers.
