Tell me about it. The Vikings haven’t worn White socks since 1964. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or they could have skipped the god awful purple pants completely. The purple pants and black facemask are the two biggest problems with the Vikings uniforms imo. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, the only non-traditional thing about these uniforms are the stripes. Everything else is perfect. I like the stripes, just because they're the only jetlike thing about the set.

j'villejags Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 A good look inside Gotham Hall as they prep for tonight. Love the venue they chose for this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black facemask sucks - either purple or white would've been better - but I don't mind the purple pants so much, as long as they're worn alongside the white jersey. It would be cool if they had striped socks though. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vikings haven’t worn white socks since 1964 Like so . . 04-OCT-1964 Lambeau Field / Green Bay, Wisconsin Vikings at Packers Minnesota 24 - Green Bay 23 and the sock striping nearly matched the jersey striping, not bad for 1964 . . Even back then they knew that if you had pants of color you needed white socks, not the socks of the same color. The current leotard look that so many teams have is just so awful!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it did match the sleeve exactly, it's just cut off by Tarkenton's ankle tape job. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did catch that part, that wasn't what I was referring to. Take notice that the upper and lower striping on the socks appear to look thicker than the ones on the jersey. That's what I had meant. BTW . . I like those current purple pants, it's just that those purple socks ruin the look. The Bills have that same problem with the current socks worn with the royal blue pants. We should take notice of the white striped socks that were worn with the blue pants from 1975-1980 before switching to the red socks in 1981 which I wasn't a fan of. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFallenHaveRisen Posted April 4, 2019 Author Share Posted April 4, 2019 Only thing I don't really like is the number font, was really hoping they'd go with that USAF Armadillo font, also the name & stripes need a black outline to match the number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not because I'm expecting any surprises or anything, but it's just exciting when a team unveils a new uniform set.

AgentColon2 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 After seeing that NEW YORK over JETS logo I feel anything is an upgrade. Maybe that’s why I’m not hating on this so much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiddySicks Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I actually really like this. It’s a solid update to the 90s set while still incorporating some elements of the traditional Jets look. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
