But most uniform purists don’t have any skin in the game. And we’re also the types to collectively mock these spring football leagues that fail after a season or two. If convincing Bud Light to fork over thousands of dollars to stick a small logo on the back of a helmet helps keep XFL around a bit longer, I’ll deal with it. Looks won’t matter to a dead league. Agreed, it maybe a necessary evil for a start up league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschoolvikings Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 If they were to get rid of the red pants and add some red socks, this would be my favorite of the bunch; 3 Quote http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a Seattle fan, I hate the blue/orange home pants, especially with a white helmet. Too much orange for me. They could retire them now.

DCarp1231 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 I’m at the Defenders-Dragons game. Some DC players are wearing red base layer pants giving off the illusion of red socks 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG_ThenNowForever Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 DC looks so awesome. It might be one of my favorite football uniforms of all time. 1 Quote 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8BW14 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Seattle seriously needs navy blue helmets. The white helmets look fine with the white jersey and pants but I think navy pants and helmets would make for a really sharp uniform (side panels nonwithstanding), and the blue jersey desperately needs a navy helmet if they are gonna wear it with navy pants. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 So the XFL tossed the referee's uniforms for the standard look. I wonder if it was a case of not having enough on hand or just Luck saying "Nope"! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Cesarano Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Both D.C. and Seattle look good. I like D.C.'s two-colour look. But, as @crosfam has mentioned, they would look much better with white pants. And Seattle's look is outstanding. But that uniform really feels like it should belong to a team from Florida. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White pants and I'm right there with you. In close ups, you can see the sleeve's lightning bolt is sewn on. Tiny detail, but soooo much better than the shiney screened on stuff. 9 Quote http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowld Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 I'm loving the Dragons logo. Looks great on the helmet and in the score bug 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henburg Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Very similarly to the AAF, if you cut the side panels off of these sets they'd instantly look 10x cleaner and some would actually be pretty solid. With the XFL in particular, Houston and LA go screwed by these awful clunky notches around the sleeves that represent one of my greatest uniform pet peeves- 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely agree. This would look just as good with an orange/aqua scheme or just leaning more into its existing forest green and navy while minimizing the orange. That would still set it apart from the rest of the league and the Seahawks enough while still being appropriate for the Northwest. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliforniaGlowin Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 LA also got screwed with that team name. My local ELEMENTARY school has that name. The KIDS football team on the Simpsons has that name. 1 Quote Last updated 5/23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gosioux76 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Houston really missed the mark by not using powder blue in this set. And this LA color scheme should be used by the Tampa Bay Vipers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Cesarano Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 L.A. may have an uninspired nickname, but their helmet logo is superb. I'd love to see more teams use a letter logo on the helmet. For me L.A.'s helmet logo is the second best in the league, second only to St. Louis's magnificent wings logo. And L.A.'s colours are just beautiful. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crosfam Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Seattle Dragons. Helmet great, but lessen the orange. Go with more blue with dark green trim, and a just touch of orange. TV had a dragon graphic that was primary blue that looked nice. Orange cleats were cool, but not looking forward to orange striped pants next week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Cesarano Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 As I look at L.A., I now think that their helmet should be white. [Edit: With orange socks.] That would probably allow the two letters of the logo to pop more. The brightly-coloured letters seem to be a bit smothered by the black. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
