Twinberwolvikings Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 The spike font is terrible. But made even worse by the fact that it is only on the first number. Check out the Greenway jersey, there are no visible spikes on the 2. What the hell is going on here?And will some one PLEASE explain what they are seeing on the road shoulders?

Check out the Greenway jersey, there are no visible spikes on the 2. What the hell is going on here?I don't want to defend the spikes, because they suck, but they're always on the RIGHT side of the number. You can see it on the 28 jersey.

jakemon08 Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Of the three teams that revealed new unis today, boy am I glad I'm a Viking fan. The Dolphins are boring and the Jags... What a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pittsburghsports16 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Great job Minnesota. Somewhat boring, but they sure do look like the Vikings again! Glad to see purple pants on the road is an option too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kajeet Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Those Jacksonville unis are not thrilling me at all. Way too much going on there. Two town helmet, double outlines on the numbers, stripes on the shoulders, crazy ass striping on the pants. Makes my head spin.Overall happy with the Viking's unis, but absolutely hate the typeface for the numbers. A standard slab serif would have gone a long way.It makes Seattle's uniforms look like a modern day classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coheed Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 From that angle, the only thing I'm not feeling are the road sleeves... what a fustercluck.Honest question, how can you see the away sleeves? All I see is the home blocking the view of the away.You can see it in the reflection of the wall/mirror. Right in front of the Jags away mannequin.

It does not appear to have the same spike as Adrian's 2. If this is actually the case, these will look terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thiazi Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Nike should not have had the Minnesota and Miami uniforms on display for an event like that. That's just :censored:ty planning on their part. As for the new Vikings uniforms, I agree that the number font is bad, I'm not sure if the serifs are supposed to be horns or a dragon or something, but I could have done without that detail. It looks like the horns are bigger on the helmet, not sure if it's a matte finish or not, but I don't see any obvious patterns or weird details on the helmet. The cage is most likely purple. The home uniform looks nice even if the bad number font and it looks like the road jersey keeps almost the same striping pattern and sleeves as the home jersey. I would have been fine with replacing the white stripe with purple, but it's an obscured view, so who knows. It still looks better than their abortion of a road jersey that they wore for the past few years.I like the look of the pants and the purple pants look nice. Hopefully, they default to those on the road, because the white on white look is too generic. Both uniforms scream Vikings and I like that they're embracing the purple and running with it.

IceCap Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 LOL Reddit guy/BradyIsMyHomeboy. Those Vikings helmets seem pretty standard for the team.Anyway they look great so far, but I'd like a better look at the helmet and the road sleeves before I decide on them. The numbers are goofy and kind of stick out, but the entire package is a massive upgrade over the previous set, so they're not as offensive as they could be.

powersurge Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Did the Vikings go with a matte finish or are my eyes deceiving me? If so, then I like it. Purple is a perfect color to go with a matte finish IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tajmccall Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I'm fine with the funky numbering. It'll be changed quietly in 2 years anyhow. That white Authentic will be mine ASAP. Nice play. I would have gone lightly different, but i'll reserve total judgment for Thursday. Store 1 Store 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like a white jersey to me, but it's a bad angle in the first place.EDIT: Looks like the mirror is distorting the jersey, so the white that I thought was the jersey is just the white stripe from the home jersey. My mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschoolvikings Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I think the road has an all purple sleeve that repeats the home stripe.I think. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
