SmackNCheese Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Toledo with the new Nike uniforms. Where to begin? Generic, templated striping pattern, "word stripe" on pants, GFGS, and they retained their horrendous gradient helmet. Their previous uniforms were nothing too special, but they looked respectable, not like some low-level FCS team. Previous uniforms (Under Armour) for comparison: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Germanshepherd Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Say what you will about Under Armour, but they almost never Phone it in on a lower tier FBS school, which Nike does 97% of the time. i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upperV03 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 UCLA is changing the script on the helmet to light blue now as well. Here's some screenshots from the teaser video they posted on Twitter: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walkerws Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Toledo changing last minute might have been a reason for the quick templates roll out as well. They could've just gone back to the old Nike uniforms that they had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree.. The different cuts typically refer to the sleeve only, which shouldn't affect the body.. The shoulder loops would be located in the body area adjacent to the sleeve seam, which is actually their natural location.. You only need to make the new pattern (or figure out how to recreate the look) once per size, then you've got all you need.. The cap sleeve (as shown in the photo) is the source of all issues regarding traditional jersey elements, and one of the primary reasons is the fact that the cuff is partially on the jersey body, rather than entirely on the end of the sleeve.. That's the reason the loop is just going into the armpit, but in this case, it almost works better that way.. If I can find a way to fix the issue on the most difficult sleeve cut, the others should be even easier.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clintau24 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 It's hard to tell on the photo given, but it looks like Toledo chose the dot matrix/fade stripes that Arizona used to wear (and we would all prefer over their current set). It's one thing to pick uniforms out of a catalog, but Toledo picked uniforms out of a nearly 10 year old catalog. That's just lazy and incompetent. My hope is, as mentioned previously, that they settled for these because of the quick turnaround. "I believe in Auburn and love it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewharrington Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 5 hours ago, WavePunter said: for example: (quick/rough idea of how it could look and be achieved) I think it all comes down to what that stripe looks under the arm, how it terminates and wraps under. Maybe it just doesn’t look right when it’s done that way. 1 hour ago, upperV03 said: UCLA is changing the script on the helmet to light blue now as well.

pianoknight Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 UCLA needs to be owning that lighter blue like UNC owns their powder blue or Texas owns burnt orange. It's such a classic look, UCLA has no business wearing navy. 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF. TITLES | 5th in HEISMAN | 7th in DRAFTS | 8th in ALL-AMER | 7th in WINS | 4th in BOWLS | 1st in SELLOUTS | 1st GAMEDAY SIGN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webfooter Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 When is the last time UCLA didn't have navy on their away jerseys? I've gone all the way back to 1970 and there's still navy shoulder loops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
