andycumbee19 Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 That pants stripe always killed me. There's no white ANYWHERE ELSE in the uniform other than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConcreteCharlie Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 That pants stripe always killed me. There's no white ANYWHERE ELSE in the uniform other than that.I think it looks fine at least in that picture with the amount of white accessories like undershirts, tape, elbow pads, and neck rolls. Players wore a whole lot of armor in the 80s. Also, their last names are white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 That pants stripe always killed me. There's no white ANYWHERE ELSE in the uniform other than that.Except the NoB. And the undershirts, and the socks, but we can maybe overlook those. Names are a bigger one. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

Jungle Jim Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 The bigger issue for me with the stripes was that they were just out-of-place on that uniform, regardless of color. Solid gold pants would have worked better. The Titans have the same issue today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slater Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share Posted June 16, 2015 I think the rams' horn design on those older outfits looked way better than their current throwbacks. The horns were wider, but I guess the current "no sleeves" trend makes that somewhat impractical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Titans have the same issue today.Or instead of creating the no stripe look and possibly making the team look a little amateurish, you use the filler tool and get rid of the white on that home uniform. That improves this look, IMO.pardon the quick and messy photo edit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 You know, I always liked the white stripe on the pants, but replacing white with yellow does make the uniform look better.

Rambulance Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I love the idea of blue and yellow, only. I would not be opposed to losing the horns on the sleeves. While I realize that uniforms are not a literal translation of the mascot they represent, Rams don't have horns on their shoulders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Regarding the Rams' old Royal Blue and Yellow outfits, was "Yellow" the official name or was there another designation for it?Actually, yes, there is another designation for it. It is called BRING THIS BACK RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterchaoss Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Yeah, I would love to have the Rams wear this or an updated version when they come back to LA next year. Kershaw is GOD! Kershaw is LIFE! Kershaw is ALL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solid gold pants would have worked better. The Titans have the same issue today.I disagree, especially about the Titans, who just need to put the stripes from their white pants on the helmets. The solution for those Rams jerseys was to make the numbers white. There was enough yellow on the shoulders. Plus, stripeless pants are amateurish and those Rams pants looked great on their own.

Slater Posted June 17, 2015 Author Share Posted June 17, 2015 Were the Rams the last NFL team to use heat-pressed jersey numbers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Were the Rams the last NFL team to use heat-pressed jersey numbers?No. The Bills used them through the end of their Super Bowl set in 2001. And of course, the Buccaneers used heat-pressed numbers for authenticity's sake on their creamsicle throwbacks the last few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 The RedSkins had heat pressed numbers until the late 90s...was it adidas who finally changed that for them? Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
