Bravo As a Texans fan, I preach this all the time. People complain that our uniforms are "boring" and i'm like "nah." Modern Classic.

It was satisfying that no matter what combo they wore in that set, the bolt was always against navy. If the Chargers simply tweaked their current set so the bolt was always against white across the whole set, it would be a massive improvement no matter which blue they wore.

Mitch B Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 A SoCal team named the Chargers should have dynamic & bright uniforms IMHO. I think the team should start from scratch instead of just tweaking the current uniforms when it's time for a change, which is hopefully soon. I'd like to see some concepts with electric blue and volt. ️️️️ "Of course, that's just my opinion. I could be wrong." Dennis Miller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustinFromBoston Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 I'l be honest, I always hated the white bolts on the Chargers uniforms. Regardless of the uniform, Yellow always looked better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tBBP Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 If anything, I think the Chargers should find the brightest yellow they can get (which im sure Nike has plenty of somewhere in its Oregon swatch bin), pair that with the deeper pacific blue of their color rush sets (I personally prefer that to their much-more-ballyhooed powder blue), if they absolutely must keep the navy keep it to an absolute minimum of trim, and call it a day. In essence, put some white pants with this, use those blue pants on the road and be done with it. *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...

If any team can (conceptually) pull of a really bright yellow, it’s the Chargers, and I think it’d be a smart way to differentiate themselves from the Rams. They already alienated all their fans, so they’re in the clear on that front. And that blue really is beautiful. Does anyone have a side-by-side with a Giants or Colts jersey? I’m curious how different they are or aren’t.

Bravo That they did yes. It's definitely not anything eye catching but quite solid and very much a professional uniform in all respects. And they really haven't changed much of it at all Still peeved about the late 90's franchise movement the league allowed to happen. Oilers and Browns should've never been allowed to move. Baltimore and Nashville are worthy of NFL cities but expansion franchises. Too many things got messed up in my head in terms of continuity and lineages. I still can't see the new Browns as any extension of the old Browns nomatter what the league says Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m curious how different they are or aren’t. Yes they can and it's used in the right dosage for them as well. Any more and it would be too gaudy. But as they have it now it pops, it catches the eye, but it doesn't overwhelm. The Chargers are in such a weird situation and the NFL is still privately seething at them. When that new place gets done and if LA still ignores/doesn't want them...what do they do? And I'm not saying they won't. Maybe they do. I don't have a dog in the fight. But if they don't the league has a fine mess on their hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same It could come down to the fact the Johnsons just don't like it as the permanent logo again despite it selling well on retro merch. I'm sure there must've been an updated 80's logo in consideration when this was being worked on. Hope that leaks someday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
