Chapeeko Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Not sure if this should go here, but I found this picture too awesome not to share. I love the color balance of the league as a whole at this time (1961). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately, most teams only use theirs in the one place they absolutely have to.

Maybe because it's an F (which I'm pretty sure is legit, unlike the silly claims that there's an E in the Eagles logo) but it only works facing right.

That’s why the cardinal faces toward the center on the left side of a polo, but it faces out toward the hip when it’s placed on the front of the left leg of a pant.

When the 49ers wear black they are not fully monochrome because the helmet is gold. But if they Vikings wore all purple, then they are technically monochrome.

The term monochrome is just CCSLC short hand for "jersey's and pants are the same color". http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use it as shorthand for "jerseys and pants are the same color, unless they're both white, because that looks good and monochrome by definition really has to suck." You can see why I need a shorthand. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see why I need a shorthand. Exactly. No need for multiple qualifiers... "monochrome except..." or "monochrome including..." or "semi-monochrome"... If the pants and jersey of a football uniform (particularly an NFL team, or non-second tier CFB team) are the same non-white color, the uniform sucks. You could argue that if the socks match too, it's even worse, but it's all just degrees of sucktitude. Just say monochrome... you know what I mean... don't make me type more. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilSox Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Would just like to point out that monochrome doesn't always have to lack the color balance it needs to avoid being garish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that isn't "garish," but it's still the worst possible combo of the Jets' current uniform set. Even when it's not horrible, it's still not as good as it could be. oh ,my god ,i strong recommend you to have a visit on the website ,or if i'm the president ,i would have an barceque with the anthor of the articel .
