The Jets are a weird case for me. Like many other teams, they wear some bad combos (mono black, white over black), but I really don’t think the base design of the uniform as a whole is bad at all. That being said, I also don’t think there’s anything particularly special about it, either. To me it’s very average, middle of the pack uniform and doesn’t do much to stand out in bad or good ways. All in all, I just feel nothing but indifference towards that whole set, which I suppose can be just as bad as dislike.

 

Take that with all the losing it’s associated with, and I feel like they probably just need to go either back to the Namath set (but with the updated green and fixed shoulder stripes), or something that more closely resembles the 80’s or early 90’s sets than this current one does. That team is in desperate need of an identity boost, and tapping into some nostalgia and heritage in a more deliberate, clear fashion could do them some wonders.

It's a MAC/CFL uniform that the manufacturer talked them into because they couldn't correctly manufacture the uniforms the Jets belong in.

The 49ers are doing this exact thing this season. 

Can the Niners now return the three stripes back to the home and away uniforms? The two stripes are awful specifically for SF...

Washington Commanders.

Especially given Washington was a Commander and not an Admiral.

The announcement: "Ladies and gentleman Washington football is going commando".

I can't believe they went from white to gold numbers on the burgundy jersey, they appear to have gone more adventurous than I thought they would. The stars represent the DC flag.

That Dallas mashup is a trainwreck. The Cuban era elements send it from great to meh.

It's shocking they never did a black alternative back in the day.

If legit, the only positive I see here is the classic wordmark. They should've never changed it.

Classic word mark is so far superior.

I also think that both Sharks logos really do have their flaws. While the 90’s bizarreness of the shark eating a hockey stick is actually really cool, the logo just needs to be cleaned up a little bit. The current logo looks more inline with a dated ECHL logo, where it’s tough but cartoony. It needs a little more realism, and a few less outlines. I also still can’t believe that the artist didn’t know enough about hockey to figure out the knob of the stick-problem. 

The Sharks and the Jaguars are logo siblings in different sports, while both of their original logos are flawed they are far superior to the slicked up attempts to modernize in their current logos.

The best part is these are far superior to the blue Garnett era tree uni.

If they kept the old number set and the red/black jerseys was just red they'd be near the top of the league.

Have to remove the IATA code from the jersey as well.

After this long, and the success the Ducks have had in the non-Mighty era, I don't think it'll ever fully happen.

 

This is from the Athletic when Ducks writer Eric Stephens (at least I presume it was Stephens) did a Q&A a couple weeks ago. Includes a shoutout to the mothership.

 

 

Per Icethetics Jersey Watch 2021, there was nothing from/for the Ducks for this upcoming season.

They don't need to go back to the Mighty Duck mask but they do need to lose the current  exurban high school on the edge of a cornfield identity from circa 2009.

How was Guardians "seamless"?  If you mean "makes sense", then fine - but I'd hardly refer to the transition as "seamless".

 

"Seamless" is an unachievable standard in any of these name-change cases.  Elks was probably the closest we'll see, but that's apples and oranges compared to an NFL change.

I was pro Spiders but I think Guardians makes complete sense for Cleveland, Washington has no obvious solution to the point where they could go Washington Burgundy and it might be the best option. I still believe Redtails is the best option with the Airmen imagery.

Guardians was seamless, none of these represent that for Washington. Every name in the left column is awful which leaves Presidents, Redwolves and Redhogs as the only viable options.

White>Gray facemasks for Chiefs.

The name is fine, the lighthouse makes zero sense. I am guessing this logo, which works for beacons, remains the most prominent.

I am glad the Kachina is back even as someone who once wanted it gone. I hope the purple reverse retro becomes a permanent alternate.

The Avs switching the black pants to blue was the right call. The new look has grown on me for a few reasons that I noticed.

 

The original jerseys had thick dual outlines around the arm stripes. Black pants combined with burgundy jersey base, blue arms, and white numbers balanced out all the colors:

 

 

The whites had color balance too:

 

 

The new ones have singular outlines:

 

 

 

The blue on the homes might be a bit excessive and not quite perfect, depending on the amount of lighting in the photograph. But with a light enough burgundy and a slightly darker steel blue, it works quite well. The whites look much better cause with the black shells, they looked like a burgundy and black team with almost no blue whatsever.

The white with blue is one of the single worst looks in the NHL, just atrocious.
