FightingGoldenDevil Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 The Jets should have stuck with starter but let Reebok and Nike put their marks on it a la Packers. The look gets ruined as soon as Reebok templates it. Another classic look butchered by modernity. I really wish there was a way to revive the look but there's no way Nike actually makes something that would work. It's better that we move on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burmy Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Sorry to see it go again...but with the template change, it was time. But I'm not worried...the best uniforms ALWAYS find their way back...someday, in the future, be it 5, 10, or 20 years from now, you WILL see the New York Jets adopt that look again.

I guess. But I have high doubts it’ll be better than the ones they have now. The current uniform is a lot better than people give it credit for. Especially in a universe full of Bucs, Jags(old) and Browns. I don’t know anyone who truly dislikes the Jets current look at its core. It’s a perfectly fine uniform, and is actually a really sharp look. Problem is, the weird shade of green and the absolutely jacked up template Nike uses for them has pretty much completely ruined it. The Jets really don’t need a new look. All they really need is a cleanup of what they currently wear. At it’s best, it’s pretty iconic. In fact, when done right, it’s actually one of my favorite looks in the league. On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

It's simply too cluttered. Design Hovie Studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assumed it would be sometime in April around the draft but that may just be due to precedent rather than anything they actually said.

Chromatic Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 The Jets have looked bad since 98 when they changed their green to that drab, muted, dreary shade. It's the kind of colour pairing that just makes you let out a laborious heavy sigh every time you see it. Whatever they do, I hope the colours change.

AndrewMLind Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 The Jets, historically, have a great look. It simply doesn’t fit today’s football uniform templates. That’s not Nike or Reebok’s “fault,” but rather a result of the evolution of the game. It happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Adidas template is so garbage that I can barely tell what they’re trying to go for with this take on the sleeves. Are the stripes supposed to be curved and tapered or is that just the fabric warping? How did they draw it up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_DietDrPepper_ Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Sorry but I’d prefer the Nike template over almost any other. It looks much more intimidating and athletic than the old sleeve look. And while I’m at it. The striping pattern looked just fine and good on the current template Follow the NFA, and My Baseball League here: https://ahsports.boardhost.com/index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
