LMU Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 B-A-utiful! Mixes the classic OJ era unis with modern influences. MUCH better than the current "how many shades can we squeeze in" look, and it also gets rid of the NFL-Europeesque road unis. Very nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordie Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Overall, pretty nice! I don't care for the font used for the name and numbers, but I really like the way the side stripes slash on the pants and change to match the colour on the top of the socks.

Chazberg Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 They're not bad, but I'm not a big fan of the reverse color socks, and I think you need to ditch one of the white jerseys because they're too similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseyfan Posted August 25, 2004 Author Share Posted August 25, 2004 Thanks guys for all the great comments! As for the font, I used stock Illustrator CS fonts and tried to match one that resembled the shape of the stripe in the logo. If/when I get more time, I was thinking about creating a complete font set that more closely resembles that look.As for the Two white jerseys...the idea was to have one that could be warn with the red pants (an idea I think the "new" Bills should seriously think about...blue is over done), and one that could be used with the blue. I am NOT a fan of side stripes that don't have uniformity all the way down the uniform (the Bills current look, the broncos when they wear white tops and blue bottoms).Keep up the comments/suggestions...they're a big help!

andrewharrington Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 i love those. ive always wanted to use a good times font like that for a pro football team, but its hard to pull off, and im scared haha. you did it well though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackerBadger Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 This is incomparably better than the current uniforms. The only thing I'd suggest is ditching the top color panels on the white jerseys, because the blue and red jerseys don't have them. I don't care for the road socks, either, although I understand how they work in with the pants' side stripe.I'm sure the Bills' equipment managers would just love the opportunity to have to keep four jerseys, four pairs of pants and four pairs of socks straight for each player.

Braden Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I gotta say you did very with with what ya got, especially for you first shot. We all can agree that they need a huge overhaul, but I have yet to give up on the logo cause it's pretty good. Just some constructive criticism...On the pants stripe, it looks like you went halfway between using the style of the red stripe on the Bills logo and traditional pants striping. It doesn't go well with the more traditional jerseys you have.I like the white helmet, but two divisional rivals already have white helmets and it just wouldn't fly. I would say stick to the red, but it's up to you.This has great potential... I must say my first crack at it was complete crap but I got better with practice. Keep on practicing and experimenting and by no time you'll be amazing. Keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 very nice designing work i only see a few problems... you mirrored the shoulder numbers, so the one of the numbers is facing the wrong direction on every jersey.... also, i think the jerseys would look better if the buffalo were facing FORWARD on the sleeves, as opposed to looking behind the player.and i made a concept a while back that used black socks, and i was informed that it's an NFL rule that all teams wear white socks... so your away socks wouldn't cut it, as they've gotta be white with colorful stripes, and not colorful with white stripes.but as i said, it's an outstanding concept for a first shot. definately better than fluffalo's real unis.

quantum Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Not a bad concept. The logos on the sleeve should have the buffalo rushing towards the front of the jersey, not backwards.Nice job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CZzyzx41 Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 I love the helmet and jersey and numbers. The only suggestion I have is perhaps on the diagonal line that divides the blue and red on the pants, add some curve to it. That's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
