AgentColon2 Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Those mascot pants definitely improve the uniforms. Still not fantastic, but better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitedawg22 Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Has anyone started the "Patriots New Uniforms for 2025" thread yet? My overall impression is that these are just underdesigned... maybe not even designed at all. The shoulder stripes may or may not match the pant stripes, and even if they did, they would still look like crap since Nike doesn't bring them down below the collarbone. The number font is kind of traditional, but not really (see the "4" on the Hightower jersey), and is kind of reminiscent of their 2000-2019 set, but not really. The only options at this point are monochrome home uniforms and leotard socks for both home and away. The uniform is red, blue, and white, but the helmet is red, blue, and silver. No single element is offensive, but literally none of them work together, and the overall effect is of a create-a-uniform on Madden. oh ,my god ,i strong recommend you to have a visit on the website ,or if i'm the president ,i would have an barceque with the anthor of the articel .

Krudler Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 34 minutes ago, tyst13 said: I wonder, while the other teams have been able to put out proper announcements (see the Brown pics of an impromptu photo shoot in a garage) despite the circumstances, is it possible the Patriots were impacted more than others? Hence the bare bones release and inconsistencies of the pants from the announcement, mascot pics, and style guide (according to canzman)? I mean, all the early announcements may have been a little better off because they started preparing a little earlier, but if the Patriots were always planning to announce this week, the circumstances could have left them scrambling to make due with what they had. I wonder if the Pats have been sitting on this change until they knew Brady wouldn't be coming back. Like would they have delayed these changes until next year, if he came back for one more year?

WavePunter Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 I don't even know what they were thinking.. honestly.. Generally, with a bad or underwhelming uniform reveal, it's still easy to tell what they were trying to do.. this uniform is so sloppy and disjointed, I can't even wrap my head around it.. there isn't a single new idea in the entire uniform, but it's like they mashed together the least cohesive combination of elements from their existing identity and uniform history.. I don't even understand how this could've passed along as ok.. I really don't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally I'd say no - but in this case, since the logo and helmet aren't changing, maybe the lead time isn't as big a deal because the advertisers and apparel manufacturers (other than jerseys) wouldn't need to change anything, and Nike can ramp up production on these quickly, since they're baseically the color rush with new numbers.

It looks good on them, and there’s no way it can look good on multiple teams. Wish the Patriots and Texans would just stop already. This definitely applies to the Titans more than the Texans, but I couldn't agree more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krudler Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 I think if the pants were white on the home set, you'd have a really nice distinct set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hormone Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 My 02. This is a downgrade change for change sake. A lot of what I hate...leotard, unitard, etc. Messy. Not titans messy, but messy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW I really liked the design of the boot. Threw together a very low grade idea of it on a helmet. I kinda like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the problem with that is the helmet is still silver. It's like they went halfway into a significant change but just stopped, and the end result is the worst of both worlds.

I keep seeing this about white home pants! I'm I in the minority that really dislike white home pants with light color helmet other than white. If so that is ok just can't believe a lot of people would prefer white over silver.

-Akronite- Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 PROS: -Simplified look -Uhhh... wasn't expecting much CONS: -Monochrome -Kept double outline on numbers -Striping sizes noticeably different without justification -Needs silver pants IMO to make inclusion of silver work, esp. on helmet DON'T CARE: -Number font was nothing special, lateral move to block Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White alternate pants would be fine...but silver(gray) and navy need to be primary pants. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.
