I mean, a lot of people were thinking they'd get a new look when they moved into SoFi.

doctorpeligro 138 Posted April 20, 2020 The prospects of a Powder Blue helmet are a little disconcerting. As far as we have been told, this is the new bolt on a Powder Blue background: As someone who generally hates two trim colors, I would have preferred either of the following alternative bolts on Powder Blue: Bolt trimmed in Black on Powder Blue background Bolt trimmed in White on a Powder Blue background 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JOEYxFRESCO 375 Posted April 20, 2020 I don’t think they’re getting powder blue helmets. Maybe different means that they’re adding the numbers under the bolts? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To wit, the new bolt has a white outline significantly thinner than the powder blue outline. I look fine as a standalone logo but the inconsistency in the stripe outlines could make the white less discernible from a distance. If they were going to roll with a powder blue helmet, I would have wanted something like the 80's style outlining on the bolt.* *Also for the record, I don't think the helmet bolt has been changed. The new logo just seems to be a more accurate representation of the helmet bolts which have had a flatter arch for their whole existence. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
heavybass 782 Posted April 20, 2020 Well hopefully the Chargers new uniforms can be better than the Patriots... god what a waste of effort THAT was. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If there is no A there's no need to segment it. This remains the reason why I'm really afraid that they put the whole LA horn logo on the helmet. Which, if they did it, would make the gradient Falcons jersey look like Yankees' pinstripes. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ramsjetsthunder 1,377 Posted April 20, 2020 It would be just like the NFL to absolutely nail the logo but completely flop on the unis. If the helmets are powder blue, I don't know if there's any way these uniforms could succeed. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm repeating myself from an earlier page, but to me, the inner blue outline becomes part of the background and I see the logo as a bolt with an offset white outline, which strikes me as a very "electric" look. I'm very glad the Chargers have moved away from darker blue and embraced powder, but I loved the application of the bolt on blue in these two looks: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
