That's an interesting take on the Lions.   Not sure they would ever give up the silver helmet, but this does work.  

I agree that they probably would never ditch the silver helmet as the primary look. I was thinking the white helmet and pants could serve as alternates, especially if the league ever allows more than two helmets.

White Home & Away

For an alternate uniform, I chose to go with a gray uniform that features a darker, almost smokey, gray from the gray that is used in the primary look. I'm not certain that the current gray uniform is popular amongst the fan base, but I think it works for a set that doesn't feature black.

I decided to stick with the blue helmet as well. Since it's no longer an anniversary season, the primary logo is used instead of the throwback logo. Blue socks instead of gray socks as well to complement the blue helmet.

Alternate Gray

Home & away combinations with blue pants, which were introduced in the 90s and brought back with the current design.

Alternate Home & Away

The Lions are another team getting new uniforms for the 2024 season. My interest is one that is commonly shared amongst those who have created Lions uniform concepts, which is the look that they dawned during the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Modernizing retro looks and combining history with the present is my go-to style, and the Lions have a brand that I believe could thrive with something like this.

As always, I love hearing feedback and other interests/ideas that are out there! Here is a summary of the changes from the current look. 

Helmet

- Updated the stripe (pants as well) to a blue/white/blue pattern

- Changed the facemask color from silver to Honolulu Blue (I think a metallic version would look sharp)

Numbers

- Used the current font with an increased width

- Changed the outline color from dark gray to white on the home jersey

Sleeves

- Removed the "Lions" wordmark and the current WCF logo from the sleeves

- Added trim to the stripe pattern

Logos

- Added a slightly modified WCF logo to the front of the jersey (Stripes in the logo are angled to match the numbers and wordmark)

- Added the "One Pride" slogan to the inside of the jersey collar

Primary Home & Away

Love it. Keep up the great work!

Added white pants!

Other Combinations

Home & Away Reversed

Every year I wonder what uniform combination would be best for the Super Bowl or even what special uniforms could look like for the participating teams. This is a place to discuss and post ideas for what alternative uniform combinations would be fun to see. I'll start by posting the actual game day uniforms that each team will wear.

Awesome job on these (as well as your Texans concept, too.)! You've done a great job at blending tradition with new ideas, and the presentation is top-notch.

 

One thing I'd suggest, would be to also use navy blue helmets for the Seahawks, as I think those would look amazing when paired with the navy pants on your away set. Just curious, did you try making a Wolf Gray jersey version of these as well? I always thought Seattle's all-gray uniforms were so sick....  I wish they would have kept those instead of the neon green ones.

Again, great work! Can't wait to see what you do next.

Much appreciated! I agree with your suggestion on the helmet. To this point, I've only tried to illustrate what the rumors of the new uniforms stated, which claim a gray helmet would be used.

That being said, I am fiddling around with a wolf gray jersey as well as a set of white pants as I take this more in the direction of a concept. I'll stay away from the highlighter green uniforms  

Let's try this again! Updated the "King Blue" to a lighter navy/dark royal.

Primary Home & Away: v3

Updates:

1. Changed the "King Blue" to a lighter shade of navy

2. Changed the "Apple Green" to match the shade of green that is used in the throwback set

3. Changed the away pants to "King Blue" instead of "Wolf Grey"

Primary Home & Away: v2

Throwback Home & Away

Love it, but the way I interpreted the rumor post on Reddit they switch the green to the throwback green and the gray stripe in the logo also goes back to the throwback green.

Thanks! I didn't see anything about the current logo using apple green to match the throwback logo, but you may be right! I personally think that would look better than the current colors the logo uses, so I'll most likely incorporate it soon to see how it looks.

With the rumors about new Seahawks uniforms for 2024, I figured I might as well take a stab on what I think these could look like based on the detailed rumors. Maybe this could serve as a starting point for the direction we all feel a new set of Seahawks uniforms should go. Let's find out! (Throwback set to follow)

These are really outstanding.

Any thoughts of trying a white helmet?

Thank you! You might see something soon.

Can I ask where you got this template? I would love to use it in my future concepts.

 

I'm loving this set for the Texans. The simple 2 stripes on the sleeve are clean and distinguished enough to be unique!

Thank you! I created the template I'm using and unfortunately, it's not available to the public. Hope to see your future concepts!

These look amazing! The battle red is definitely the best uniform for the Texans in my opinion.

Just curious, what template are you using for these jerseys? I can't find one like that anywhere, and I'd love to try to redesign the Patriots uniforms given the recent changes.

Appreciate it! This is a template that I created and unfortunately, it's not available to the public. But don't let that stop you!

Changed the Texans wordmark and the Nike swooshes from navy to white.

Battle Red: v3; More Combinations!

DISCLAIMER: This is NOT a Houston Oilers throwback concept. While I think those look great, I have a feeling the Tennessee Titans (who currently have an Oilers throwback) wouldn't exactly appreciate the Texans doing something very similar. Also, the NFL is still currently implementing a 2 helmet rule to the best of my knowledge; and since I went with a red helmet for the Battle Red concept, I'm sticking to a navy blue helmet with an H-Town blue stripe in place of the normal white stripe. I agree that a white helmet could be the better look here, but I'm deciding to adhere to the current rules for this. So don't come for me on that lol.

With all that said, my version of the H-Town blue look uses the same design as the Primary Home & Away and Battle Red with the exception of the numbers, which utilize a dual outline. Because red and navy blue are used in the number outlines, I believe this helps justify a navy blue star on the flag stripes. My goal is to utilize the H-Town blue heavily to pay tribute to the Oilers, while at the same time making it feel like the Texans. Would love to hear more feedback, but please keep it within the rules that I'm adhering to. Thanks!!

H-Town Blue

@nbitterman  I hope you don't mind my jumping on your post instead of starting another one.  I like the use of the Texas flag imagery with your design.  A lot of good stuff there.  With mine  I tried to largely avoid the flag and use the secondary logo a bit more just to do something different.  Also wanted to stay pretty basic, especially with my all blue and white color rush.  

 

@WideRight Very nice!

Other Combinations

Changed the logo on the pants of all uniforms to a star, matching the sleeve design. Thanks everyone!

I just noticed that you have "HOUSTON" on the blue jerseys and "TEXANS" on the white ones.

Shouldn't that be reversed, or did you do that by design? 

By design. I wanted to utilized the city name on the primary home jersey, then use the team name on the road and alterante red jersey. I plan on coming up with another uniform to fully embrace H-Town as well.
