GriffinM6 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Nike has released some interesting stuff these last few years, whats next? Gradient jerseys? Jerseys that glow in the dark? What will Nike do Next? Will it be cool or ugly? Within the next five years, they will have an epiphany, and see the light on how a good, classic uniform is made. They will then begin to produce uniforms that make sense for the team, and aren't too outlandish. This will then cause other manufacturers to do the same, and peace will be restored to the college football uniform world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSoundofThrowingPennies Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Within the next five years, Nike will rollout a look where the Jersey and pants are connected, in otherwords, a one piece uniform. The bad news is I'm almost certain it will catch on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdu Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I think at some point they will return to a more traditional look for CFB. Prob still a few years away though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPDesign Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I disagree. Nike will continue to produce some traditional sets and some modern sets. The only thing that will change is what exactly "modern" looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandMooreArt Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 If the Washington uniform is any indication it looks like they and HGI might be experimenting with textures on helmets of course the first one they did is the Redskins "leather" helmet so its not completley newWhat they will do is hard to say because theres so many options they havent touched yet. Different vinal graphic finishes, colors, fabrics in uniforms. They actually have been copying themselves so much the last few years it wouldnt surprise me if the next big new trend comes from UA or adidasI dont have any solid proof i can share but ive said before i think they are developing a really next level NFL uniform. And that might even include them getting into the helmet manufacturing business GRAPHIC ARTIST BEHANCE / MEDIUM / DRIBBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBolt3 Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I think BrandMoore has a point with the graphics. Syracuse was a start, but I think that more of that and what Illinois did with the subliminated stripes is what may become more common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCS Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Going back to just traditional college sets won't sell as much. I doubt that happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that might even include them getting into the helmet manufacturing businessThe texture on helmets is such a bad, bad, bad thing. It will (if not policed soon) produce a nasty head injury in some player someday as they become increasingly rougher. I wouldn't be shocked if matte on matte in some instances leads to further head trauma as well.While it might look cool (in the eyes of some, anyway), it's definitely something that is counterproductive to the "avoid head trauma" push sweeping football (and with helmet manufacturers).
