vmd9 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Looks cool, but I'm surprised with Iowa's lack of creativity they didn't just go with this:They are the same school that wore these: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaydre1019 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Is it me or is that like a 10 yr old template?these are pretty out there. are they actually a throwback, or just like a fauxback? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSU151 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I like that deep gold and black color combination...for Purdue. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illini1 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I might be wrong, but it looks like the gold panels on the jersey are dye subliminated, instead of sewn on. I can't see any seams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigwalk Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Put a blue outline around the black D (to make it more like the 2011 lacrosse helmet) and I'm in. That blue looks darker than the jerseys...I wonder if it means new uniform material? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcb05 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 But this isn't just a generic NCAA shape. It's a generic NCAA Football shape. So even customized with conference names/logos, you know that it's football-specific. The round SEC logo could be for any sport, but the SEC pennant tells you it's football.You're right, without the pennant, how will I know what sport I'm watching?!?!

That blue looks darker than the jerseys...I wonder if it means new uniform material?OK I'm calling it here...this multiple helmet/matte black alt/mix & match uniform sets trend is officially done. when you have non-relevant programs like Duke and Eastern Michigan attempting to jump on the Oregon bandwagon, the fad has run it's course.can't wait until next season when teams start paring back and going minimal in order to stand out from the rest of the mix/match/alt color/matte kooks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

knnhrvy16 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Love the Iowa uniforms...Yeah, I have to admit, I like 'em too. That particular design actually translates to the modern uniform better than I expected it would, in my humble opinion. I would have preffered a throwback to the Kinnick set, but this still isn't bad by any means (and I assume there's a particular reason this set is being thrownback to). The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right.

tBBP Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Anyone have an image, or know the particular year(s), to which this set is throwing back? *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 1921-22, according to the press release. The team went 7-0 in each of those two seasons. And the design seems to match up with at least one pro design of the era.

mcrosby Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I love those Iowa uniforms. Throwbacks as of late (Redskins, Steelers, Hawkeyes) have done a great job of bringing old templates into the present. I love it. They may not all be traditional football unis, but some of them sure are unique. https://twitter.com/OutOfThisWC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
