Old School Fool Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 This sock rule has me curious about the possibilities. The Ravens could wear their purple CR socks with black pants and the Bills could wear their red CR socks with the blue pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbush24 Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Looks like the Browns may have gotten approved to wear their color rush as the primary home uniform this season (notice the 3 orange stripes in the background) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colortv Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Chargers finally announced their uniform schedule and despite saying Powder Blue would be the primary home uniform are only wearing it 4 times. The white dominates the schedule but thankfully they only wear the navy once: https://www.chargers.com/schedule/uniform Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCarp1231 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Assuming the inevitable announcement of the Browns using their Color Rush uniform as their primary home uniform, that will make (from memory) 5 teams without proper matching home & away uniforms. Giants, Cowboys, Rams, Chargers all already “practice” this. It’s such a bad look on a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The plane is awkward, the letters self-consciously “kewl”. Looks especially terrible pointing backwards on the helmet. Would be easier to explain what I like about that logo.

Cant agree with you there - the Packers ruined their road jerseys in the 1980s when they shoehorned it into their home uniform template. But different colors react to each other differently, and a striping pattern that looks good with green as a delineator falls apart when white and gold have to touch each other. Not everything has to be matchy-matchy. Sometimes a little variation can elevate the design. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

Gothamite is talking about two sets of sleeve stripes that look similar and share a colour scheme. This is two completely different uniforms. From striping to the number fonts, to the colours. Apples to oranges.

CrookedThumb Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 As far as I know, this is the first time the Bucs have released any kind of uniform schedule. Only three different combinations this year. Looks like they’re taking advantage of the new sock rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BJ Sands Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 The Brian’s Song remake had these historically inaccurate Bears socks that actually looked good. Now that it’s legal, I wouldn’t hate the Bears switching eventually. EDIT: Basically, those were the Color Rush socks before Color Rush was a thing. They look much better with white pants.

Some great set vary on the home and road in other sports, it can be pulled off in football as well. The Packers are a good example, though I wouldn't argue that the current white look is bad.
