Your two photos sandwiched another uninspired uniform in '94, but I don't feel like searching for pics right now. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't remember any reference to it at the time of the release. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin W. 1,825 Posted April 29, 2018 They're not the same shade of blue. The Jets' light blue is significantly darker. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only change the Pats had before their true 90's look was the same uniform in the first photo, but with a red facemask 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually you're right they had the original Flying Elvis uniforms but the numbers only had a blue trim. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They went from a forgettable, generic look that was poorly designed to a unique and well developed identity that has stood the test of time. The identity utilizes unique colors and has a clear theme, but has never been over the top or gimmicky. It's actually kind of surprising to see something that timeless come out of the 90's. It's a modern classic that appeared just before the merchandise craze and has proven to be a strong identity for years. If the Mariners had waiting until around 1999 or 2000 to rebrand all they would have done was take the 80s set and add a bunch of black and we would have missed out on the teal navy and silver look. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NicDB 2,908 Posted May 1, 2018 This: To This: I preferred the second (lime green) version of the green rainbows, but they're both classics and still the only truly great uniforms the Bucks have ever worn. I think they really dropped the ball not bringing them back this last go-round. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mismatched blues, three different striping patterns (helmet, sleeves, pants), and completely generic (including the "logo" wordmark). I suspect people like it because of the fond memories of two championships wearing that uniform, rather than the actual design. To the extent that it's an upgrade over the 1970s design, it's because the 70s design is even worse. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OnWis97 4,452 Posted July 31, 2018 ^^ The biggest improvement in that Patriots example is outlining the TV numbers. I did not like that mismatched look. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
