LEAK:
When I shared the comments from the Texans on the new unis a few months back, I said it was going to be a show. Doesn't appear to be disappointing.
Hell, let's throw it all together: a single uniform with piping, gradients, alarm clock numbers, swoosh striping, side panels, toilet seat collar and let's do it all in bright magenta pink just because it's different. If you're going to fail, might as well be epic with it.- 2

No. I just don't like the "electric lime" color. I think of it more as "puke green".
The lime green like Orlando used and Seattle uses are great colors for me. Green is one of those tricky colors, however, that depending on lighting, medium, etc. than can go from nice looking to awful in a hurry. What I consider to be "puke green" is duller than the Thunder's unis, but in reality it's not far off.- 2

Hate to say it, but designing a good uniform and designing a uniform that the players like are becoming two very different things. From what I understand about current players' uniform opinions, they'd be estatic about every game being all-black vs all-white
All you need to know about giving any weight to what the players like is to look at them getting off the bus in their street clothes. Some know how to look sharp, others look like they walked through a tornado of clothes and are wearing whatever landed on them. -

Not sold on this in the slightest.
It was perfect for the time it came out. While I never cared for the logo itself, I loved the uniforms as they we very unique and well executed.- 3

That’s not good.
Scary thought: please do NOT try to convey snow coverage using gradients. Gradients are worse than piping.

The Texas took a cool modern logo, put it on a bland uniform. Instead of going with an upgrade (even just going to the red helmet would have helped!), they chose to go even more bland.

No. I'm saying he personally funded the morons that designed the XFL uniforms.I.E. Dani and her assistants, probably.

I feel as if a lot of Falcons concepts that try to combine the old and current logos fall a little flat, but this one actually works pretty well. I do prefer black helmets for the team (red looks a little UGA-esque IMO), and the 2 looks a little odd.
Yeah, I plan on modifying the 2 and using the modification on a more modernized version. I also realize now I only posted the "deluxe" version of the wordmark and will post the basic version. Thanks to you and everyone for the feedback so far!

Those pants are awful and don't match the traditional style jersey at all. I think they were trying to mimic the panther logo, but it just does not work. They look like a high school team that ordered mismatched styles out of the catalog.
Agreed. It's a bit jarring looking at the sleeve stripes and then the pants. Once again, Dani and Dwayne broke what was working well.
I am reeeeaaallly hoping they drop all the silly gradient stuff.

Wow. I posted a Falcons concept that was an attempt to bring together the elements of the old logos and the current a while ago and just realized it's been 7 years since then!
Not going to re-post that one but my 2024 redo of the Falcons to try to better blend the old and new into something more conservative and traditional. While I did try to go with a more classic look (heavily influenced by their great throwbacks) I did go radical with the ColorRush. Any, here it is...c&c welcome as always!

I’m surprised the Jets are in fact just straight-up going back to the Legacy uniforms, & a bit underwhelmed. Honestly, I think this outgoing set was a bit over-hated:
Much more 2017 Lions or 2023 Cardinals than 2014 Bucs or 2015 Browns. The shoehorning in of black onto the green & white jerseys was a bit unnecessary, as was the black helmet. Otherwise, it’s a fine modernization of the Jets’ look to me, even if the helmet logo is a bit boring. I didn’t even mind the black uniform on its own for a couple games a year, as long as it was paired with the green helmet with the gorgeous finish.
I agree. I thought the current unis were tastefully done, modernizing the look without all the usual Nike OTT junk. It was a vast improvement over the Namath era unis, which were ruined IMHO by a horribly drab green and shoulder stripes that, while they looked great in the 60s, did NOT transition well at all onto the current template. I think the current uniforms address a host of issues and make them unique while still being simple. I love the current helmet finish.

Some new concepts today over on Uniwatch...the Commanders one is so good that it will never happen, because we can't have nice things as long as Nike is in charge...

I like the Jets' Concept 1 very, very much!
Concept 2 looks like the long-lost brother of the Saskatchewan Roughriders.- 1

I see boomerangs along with the most generic "modern football" font. (I still would say a improvement over rock's XFL logo, but not much, USFL was better than both)
I wonder who they've used for their logos and workmarks. I've never been able to locate anything on the XFL.- 1

Every layer of that post re: Broncos is not credible. I wouldn't read into it at all.
Bummer. Other than the white shell, I liked it. -

Yea, The Rock & his ex-wife are still involved it would seem. Also the Black & white color scheme would be what carries over from the XFL.
I know it's supposed to be "UFL" bracketed by an abstract football, but as executed is see it as <UFL> every time, like it's in parenthesis. Is the "UFL" silent?- 1

Still More Info on Houston Texans’ Upcoming Uniforms Emerges
UniWatch reported:"Last week I wrote about how we were starting to learn more about the Texans’ upcoming 2024 uni redesign. The main things in that first wave of info were the following:
- The team will have four new uniforms.
- “H-Town Blue” — i.e., the Oilers’ old shade of Columbia blue — will be an accent color, not a main color.
- The team’s primary logo will not be changing.
- The new uniforms will be unveiled during the lead-up to the draft in late April."
Also:
"Vosik added the four versions of the uniform will be completely different from each other and not simply a repeat in various colors. That would be a way to make sure everyone gets what they want. Before drawing up designs, the team set up a fan council, which provided feedback that varied from fans who wanted to keep the uniforms traditional to others who wanted a drastic change. Players also gave their input on what they’d like to wear starting next season."
This already sounds like a trainwreck.

YES! The away unis desperately cry for help. To me, the all-whites with the pale blue look like pajamas. The red stripe in the light blue numbers is horrible. What you propose is far superior and delivers a more cohesive/consistent look. One the home sets, I'd add some more black...they looked sharper that way.- 1

The league was under new ownership that also brought on a new apparel partner. They were never going to just roll out the looks from a prior regime.
Based on the popularity and the recentness of the 2.0 version, I would've expected them to have kept the close to the originals for at least brand recognition's sake.
Everything they touched was a downgrade IMHO.- 1

Well,. it doesn't help that the Cards rolled out an epic failure of what appears to be the laziest effort at a redesign ever. It looks more like pajamas...or a pee wee league that couldn't afford more than just the bare basic templates.
The whole solid color sock thing is just a horrible idea...it's already dated just like all the piping crap that was so popular for about 20 years.
I've always liked flashy uniforms and don't mind new looks at all. The problem is, Nike pushes the envelope until they tear it into a million pieces...like a drunk who just doesn't know when to quit.
The throwbacks you show are all great looking. One of the best not included is the Falcons.- 3
