TBGKon Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 NoT bad, but too close to the Aqua. Orange or bust! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaydre1019 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I'd like to see Aqua pants paired with a new blue Dolphins jersey.That would look downright AWFUL.AWFUL like this Titans disaster... (Closest match I could think of)Those look fine because they are balanced out with the shoulder yoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 They look fine until you notice the helmet. That balances with nothing. It looks like they ran out of their normal blue helmets which were designed to go with such a set so they slapped the decals on a white helmet the equipment manager picked up at Sports Authority.

White/white/navy is my least favorite combo of theirs because it seems nothing balances at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is certainly better than some of their alternatives... It balances out with the bottom of the socks....

TheOldRoman Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I don't think it looks better than all the alternatives. It looks much, much worse than navy jersey and white pants, and much worse than light blue jersey and white pants. Saying it's better than monochromes is faint praise. White helmets absolutely need white pants to balance them (with the possible exception of the road uniform). The above look might have looked good with a navy or Columbia blue helmet, but with white it looked awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhlyBoy Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I've said it close to a billion times on these boards, but man say what you will about the Dolphins' new unis (I like them more than past), but the new Aqua color is amazing. They nailed that out of the park. Perfect color to represent South Florida Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dennisbergan Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 All the Fish have to do to solve the aqua jersey problem (in that they hardly ever wear them) is to end the silly and tired "wear white at home" crap and start wearing aqua at home. Problem solved.But then again, the Dolphins might keel over and die from heat exhaustion if they dare to wear anything but white at home. I mean, its such a sure-fire and well crafted explanation for their continued insistence to trot out white at home all year. Probably why they never, ever lose at home during the day.

El Scorcho Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I bought my first Dolphins jersey in more than a decade when the new ones were released, and i'm looking to get another one before next season.The colour is amazing. It screams Miami Dolphins but is also something you can wear around because the design is simple.I like orange, but i'm even happy they minimised it. When you've got such bright colours, keeping the uniform simple is really important, especially considering retail jerseys. The only thing they got wrong IMO was the "MIAMI" workmark on the butt.Enormous upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennisbergan Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 The Titans uniforms are complete garbage and they are even worse when they use their 2 ugliest combos (light blue jerseys and navy blue pants; and white jerseys/navy blue pants) all the time.The Former Oilers should only wear navy pants once a year when they wear the navy jerseys (which should be the ALT jersey). We already have way too many navy based teams in the NFL. Its navy overkill. The FO's should use Columbia blue as their primary home jersey and they should be paired only with white or occasionally with Columbia blue pants. White jerseys with either white or Columbia blue pants. Change the helmet to Columbia blue (because the white helmet is boring and Columbia blue is unique and part of the heritage of the former Oilers). Embrace that color. Get away from the navy that 1/3 of the league is already wearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berlin Wall Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I disagree with this. The old dolphins uniforms were a piece of art for me!I also liked the old aqua better. Actually way better. I'm a simple person, I have a pixelated David Beckham as profile photo since 2010. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old School Fool Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Nike may have adjusted the color of the aqua in 2012, but it didn't fix the rest of the problems with that uniform. The color of the aqua seemed rather lifeless. The Dolphins should always have bright uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Scorcho Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I'm not sure how you could argue that they don't. They've probably got the brightest uniforms in the league.The drop shadow on the numbers is ugly as hell. They badly needed an upgrade, and every concept I see on here gives them bright orange and big sleeve stripes which they just don't need. When your colours are so bright, having too many features just makes the whole thing look lurid and garish.Simplifying it all and reducing orange and the darker aqua to accent colours was the right move.

FiddySicks Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 They definitely upgraded the colors for the Dolphins, but the rest of the set was a complete downgrade. That new logo is so disappointing.

Lights Out Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 They look fine until you notice the helmet. That balances with nothing. It looks like they ran out of their normal blue helmets which were designed to go with such a set so they slapped the decals on a white helmet the equipment manager picked up at Sports Authority.The white helmet balances with the white socks/cleats. That's actually a perfect balance of colors. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That new logo is so disappointing.They upgraded the aqua, for sure. Maybe the blue, as I think the new color would have looked a lot better in the previous logo. The shade of orange is worse, however (before we even account for them reducing the orange). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
