Just was at local store and they had the Broncos Draft hat with the new logo. The side patch says "Broncos Country" with the state flag. Here it is on a standard hat too to see it without the details in the draft cap.
So is the silver/ ice blue halo now part of the logo?

I don’t know that I could use the words “iconic” and “carpet “ in the same sentence.

“Our City””Hard Working Citizens”

”Culture” (shows a building or art that’s in the city)
It’s gonna be hard to top the time Nike matched the airport carpet for some basketball team.

I feel like every single Nike/NFL redesign has come with the announcement in one form or another that the new uniform will respect the past while embracing the future. It just seems to be something they say. It's meaningless at this point.
They also say every time that the players have seen them and rave about them. That's most likely meaningless also, not that it matters. Player have absolutely horrendous taste in uniforms.

Especially because the way uniforms leak makes a big difference. I'll never get over how the Falcons set started off on completely the wrong foot because the first images were the jerseys hanging on a rack and some random, no-name, non-football playing white dudes wearing the full set in an office setting. Optics matter, and the jokes of "omg no way this is real" and "they look like the longest yard" were already throttling the algorithm before the Falcons media team woke up that next morning.
They conceded and gave the go on the unveil the very next day (I think they had over a week left before the unveil date). But the general public had kind of already decided the uniforms were a joke. They looked WAY BETTER on actual players.
Way better? Meh. IIRC that player unveil was the first time anyone saw that black to red gradient and the WTFs could be heard from miles away.- 2

The Lions have both a graphite AND a black hat, although the black hat at least has a blue logo. But I've got the feeling a black alt uniform is on the way
I think the Lions new uniform prominently featuring black is a near certainty.

They'll point to a team like the Panthers and say something about how modern uniform cuts make shoulder numbers almost vestigial, and that the idea of "TV numbers" need not apply in the age of HD.
Well, yeah, those ridiculous tiny shoulder numbers the Panthers insist on sticking with suck. They look beyond stupid.
I don't miss mandatory TV numbers. I like them as an option, but I also like the option the option of not having them. Modern football jerseys have such a tiny amount of real estate from collar to cuff there's no point of cramming in too much stuff.
Plus, even when they had more space, open shoulders have such a classic football feel, IMO.

I don’t see it with the other examples, where there is no design element 3 inches in any direction of the logos.
Three inches?

That's literally my point. The horn curves up, creating a perfect semi-framed space for the swoosh to live, making it essentially a logo. If you change the swoosh to some other company's logo, it changes the look of the jersey in a way that's much bigger than way back in the day when sleeve advertisers switched between Russell, Puma, Wilson, et al, and their patches were just placed any old place.
The swoosh is framed, and looks like it's a team logo.
42 minutes ago, dont care said:Don’t know how putting a logo in a blank space is “framing” the logo when it isn’t being bordered by anything else but ok. They put it where every other manufacturer has put their logo as dictated by the NFL
I think a few of us have made this point before and IMO it’s valid. The Vikings curved stripe creates a small open space that sort of “cups” the swoosh. You either see it or you don’t but I don’t think it’s a crazy stretch.
And if you don’t think the Seahawks sleeve is specifically designed to showcase the Nike logo, I don’t know what to tell you.

It’s just the perforation, not a patter. I prefer solid twill, but this is fortunately not a pattern. It does appear to me that the red outline might have some shine or texture to it.

So the Steelers got a third and two sevens for Kenny Pickett. And they got Justine Fields for a sixth?
What?
Bears.

Really digging these updates!
The one that I’m not so sure about is San Antonio. The white helmet feels a bit off.
Recently in a different thread, I was defending the L A Chargers use of white helmets with gold pants so I used this as an opportunity to continue the argument.

With the exception of the red pants, I actually really liked the pre-covid version of the DC Defenders, so I'm bringing that back...

Next, the Memphis Showboats. I toyed with the idea of moving them back to red and silver. I still might. Regardless, they got the biggest makeover of the three former USFL teams.
