Theory time- Denver removes those triangles after one year like how the Titans adjusted the number size on the Columbia blue jerseys after the first year.

theory.  Denver transforms the whole cut to a triangle and comes out looking like a Dorito.  

The triangles represent thinning air in elevation!!  Lolololol.  So dumb 

The online reaction is overwhelmingly negative to these.  Denver just wanted the classic uniform back and we get these trash uniforms.  lol. 

In case people didn’t know… Colorado has mountains. 

Butchered.   Not the uniforms Denver wanted.  What is this trash 

Ugh so disappointed.

Just give us the old D logo and uniforms. 

Leaks were real;

Here's another example of why players should NOT be in charge of uniform choices (Calvin Johnson in this case):

In fact, he likes it so much that he's ready to start a petition to have the team wear them for every home game. Tell me where to sign up, Megatron.

 

“All I got to say is, I am going to start a petition so we can wear these bad boys every home game,” Johnson said, per Brandon Carr and Mara MacDonald of ClickOnDetroit.com. “The jersey is reminiscent of the Reebok ones we wore back in the day. They’re bringing back the blocked numbers but in a new, fresh, modern style.”

as a lions fan, I hope they get destroyed in their first game wearing the black alts so they don’t start thinking they are some lucky set.

In before Nike speak tells us the pattern on Denver's numbers is to represent the snow that falls in the area

it’s probably the amount of 14ers

I know its BFBS but this looks incredible Blue/Black/Blue/Black

 

maybe.  But it doesn’t look like Detroit at all. 

That home blue is gorgeous.  May have to pick one up.  The away really needs silver pants. 
 

maybe I’ll like the helmet better if it’s not so over saturated blue in real life 

The black uniform is so bad.  Ugh why.  
 

also don’t love the new helmet.  
 

lions came so close, and the primaries are a huge upgrade. 

Pretty big emphasis on Honolulu blue and white with this one:

Is this new Lions gear?  Different font on the shirt and white stripe on the hat. 
 

Less cartoon more classic please!

Loving the Lions tease so far. 
 

the nameplate has a traditional font and I really like the additions of white to the stripes. 

just noticed this.  It looks like the Avalanche mountain stripping on that seam above the logo.  Could that be the subtle Colorado landscape theming?

Utah Hoodoos.

 
Unique and regional, could lend itself to some interesting colors and branding. 
haven't seen anyone suggest it. Am I crazy? 
 

only downside is some immature people would call them Doodoos? But that was a drawback to Kraken (Krak-heads) and that turned out to be a non issue. 

i suggested it on the prior page…

so agreed it’d be a cool name 

Utah Arches

Utah Hoodoos

Utah Parks

Utah Flats

Basically I want a geological name. 

Salt Lakers

Purple is a hard color to get consistent and the Rockies have always seemed to struggle more than most. I know many of us here have advocated for a more desaturated "purple mountains majesty" shade so that it would be a little harder to shift into blue.

I feel they got it right a few years back.  No idea what happened this year besides the Nike/Fanatics takeover

Isn’t Utah the Bee Hive State… maybe there is something that can be done with that?

did you say beads?

The Rockies purple jersey looks more like an electric blue or something.  It’s really an odd hue this year.  

Compare the jersey with the purple in the scorebug.  
 

Players saw them and hated them.  We are so pumped to bring you a new uniform that hopefully will bring universal disgust to the franchise.  
 

I get the feeling Detroit is going to throw too far back and miss the glorious Sanders era.  Primarily Honolulu blue and sliver makes me worried we are getting black added.

They're gonna shoehorn the Colorado state flag into these unis like they did the Avs and Rox.

I am so sick of the mountain and C for everything Colorado.  It’s beyond trite at this point.
