Eichs15 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 I’m a believer that the best uniforms have 3 different colored “components”, most notably in football. Some of my favorites are the 80s Chargers and 00s Browns. What are some other examples? Could be for any other sport at any other level too!

WSU151 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 This theory has been talked about on the boards forever. Some three-part uniforms hold up fine. Others look like crap. It really depends on several factors. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love those Browns jerseys and absolutely despise they went away from them. I wouldn't say all uniforms with less than 3 elements of color are bad, but I will say I prefer at least 2 to monochrome. I think only football really has this opportunity though, because basketball only really has 2 parts, and baseball pants are always either white or grey. Not sure about hockey though. I love these Falcons uniforms though, and another great example is my high school's football jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 It can work when either pants or jersey are white. Maybe if pants are silver or gray. Cant think of too many (if any) exceptions.

pianoknight Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 The original JAX uniforms were great. Black - Teal - White looked amazing. 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.

The flat red jersey just looks too out of place up against the shiny metallic blue helmet, and the whole set just doesn't work as a cohesive uniform. Maybe if there was some blue in the jersey it would be better.

VikWings Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 The Titans used to looked horrible when they'd go white helmet, light blue jersey, navy pants, or navy jersey, light blue pants. Same goes for the Ravens mustard pants look (but those pants just sucked on their own.) I think it only works if the jersey or pants are white as someone said above.

_DietDrPepper_ Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Only works with white silver or grey as one of the three. That said, it doesn’t always work with one of those three, it always doesn’t work without one though.

tBBP Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Do "road uniforms" really count, though? Look it: the Rams example up above, the Steelers are another example. Some have pointed out the Giants. When they choose gray pants, there's also the Seattle Seahawks. Although I guess this is really kinda splitting hairs, as well... ...Anyway, this is the very first team I thought of when I saw the thread title: *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewMLind Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 The best football uniforms have just two color “components” (A-B-A or A-A-B). Most of the uniforms above could be improved by following that pattern, though there are a few exceptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
