Nothing else needed the bolt patterns with the current jersey and pant are atrocious...modern cuts be damned but they need to either go back to the traditional bolt patterns or completely reinvent the bolt treatment. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The current uniforms are pale imitations of their best look. They need to return to the classic bolt stylings at the very least. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brave-Bird 08 1,703 Posted March 17, 2020 I was kind of disappointed with how bad the yellow facemasks looked in games this season. When they announced them it was with the powder blue jerseys and done in some very-well balanced graphics from the social team that really made them pop. But, in games -- especially when worn with the white jerseys, which for some reason they were electing to wear at home, the yellow looked really awkward. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because the most dominant colour on the whites (other than white) is drab navy. The yellow/gold/saffron masks looked great anytime they were paired with the powder blues. I suspect the new uniforms were designed around powder blue, and will feature powder blue more prominently on the white jerseys. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not the best fit because A. The fans prefer powder over everything else by a mile B. As you mentioned, the color rush is too close to the Rams. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hendocfc 463 Posted March 19, 2020 So... if our fellows above are correct, it should be the same colour as the 2016 Netherlands change shirt. Is it, though? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
