AgentColon2 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 The Ravens in all white do look much better than the black pants. But I wish they would bring back the old socks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discrim Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I'll have to disagree about the Bears' all white look, at least the way they usually wore it in the early 2000s. If they'd paired them with the Navy socks, it might have been passable, given that's how they were worn in the Sayers/Butkus era. Instead, they typically wore the same white socks that were/are paired with the Navy pants, and didn't look all that good. In any case, the Navy pants/white jersey combo is simply a superior look to all white IMO. I know all white was occasionally worn under Lovie, but I hope I never see it again, as I mainly associate that look with that moron Jauron. A strong mind gets high off success, a weak mind gets high off bull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True fact. Maximum amount of color while still maintaining a white jersey team. The fact that the Bears have bright orange as a complementary color just works brilliantly against the green/gold of the packers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one like the way the Bears all whites looked under Jauron/Lovie but only in very specific circumstances. For example if they played the Rams in their 80's throwbacks that would be perfect. I wonder if they would look good wearing the throwback, Monsters of the Midway socks. That's what the all whites were originally paired with.

C-Squared Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 I dislike dark pants with white jerseys in general. It almost always feels too bottom-heavy... love the Bears in white-on-white My TeePublic Shop My Instagram Art Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Bears all-white looks very odd to me since I’ve always been so used to the navy pants. It almost looks like a practice game where both sides are wearing white pants then one puts on white jerseys. Not saying they look like practice uniforms, just that it to my eyes it’s not their look. Id be ok with it against a heavily navy team, as I don’t like it when so much of a single color is on the field, but other than that they should just stick with their look. That being said, I wouldn’t mind seeing their orange pants (that apparently existed but were never used) with the white jerseys, even if just as a 1-time trial. I don’t think it’d be better than the navy pants, but I really like the Steelers road colors so maybe it’d produce a similar effect. Now, just to stay on topic... ... “meh”.

Maybe the issue is that all you young whippersnappers have grown up watching the Bears in navy pants. They debuted in 1984 . . . when I was 17. Since I grew up seeing them in white pants full time, that still looks right to me. Walter Payton became a star wearing white pants on the road.

TBGKon Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Kinda surprised @infrared41 didn't poopoo the Bucs this time...but maybe the Saints in their gold/black/gold home set was a positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. To make the worst list, both teams have to look bad. The Bucs certainly qualified, but the Saints looked good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
