I could see Cincinnati, Tennessee, and Carolina nix them. And it wouldn’t be stunning to see the Rams, with whatever they come up with, do the same. I'm guessing Jacksonville will be keeping theirs. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CON40 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Italic number fonts always make the jersey look twisted around the waist. That's the only issue with these new beauties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSox44 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Absolutely gorgeous. Not a single thing wrong with them -- and finally, we get the return of numbers on helmets full time. A+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAD! Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I have never been a fan of the powder blues, but I can live with those updates. But... what the *bleep* is this navy lightning bolt? It should have been white like the navy blue uniform era. I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitedawg22 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 1 hour ago, 8BW14 said: My only real complaints are (broken record time) the solid socks that match the pants on the monochrome alternates and the helmet numbers. Otherwise this looks really great. I would like to see actual uniforms on actual players, but it looks like the Chargers nailed it. But an underrated part of this uniform is that, unlike almost every "modern" uniform, the primary home and away uniforms don't have socks that are the same color as the pants (and can't, since there are no powder blue pants). If the color rush uniforms are used 1-2x per year each, that means that for most of the schedule, the Chargers will wear socks that contrast with their pants, which is great. 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 .

Their plan was to unveil new uniforms and logos when the new stadium opened. Then the stadium was delayed a year because Los Angeles had a thunderstorm the likes of which Illinois gets about once a month. Then the goddamn Chinese nuked the entire global economy because they ate flying rats from a sidewalk sale and gave everyone the plague. Now they might not even get to play in the new stadium this year and no one has any money to buy their ugly gradient logo anyway. The Majestic XII have spoken.

OnWis97 Posted April 21, 2020 Author Share Posted April 21, 2020 The NFL picked a great time for all these uniform releases given the lack of sports right now. Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

jws008 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I like this set a lot. Do I think they need two alternative/color rush sets? No, but I understand the difficulty in narrowing it down to one (both are good designs IMHO). Am I happy about the number font? Not in particular, but I could see them wanting an italic to emulate the angles we often see bolts drawn with (including in their word mark). I think they really attempted to combine a lot of elements from their uniform history: Numbers on the helmets and powder blue from the AFL days into the 70s. Yellow pants and royal blue from the late 70s and early 80s sets. Navy from their more recent history. And I like the return of more "normal" (for the Chargers) shoulder bolts and the consistency of the layout of the bolts on the pants. Overall, a 9.75 out of 10 (which says a lot, I don't think I'd give any current NFL uniform a 10/10). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill0813 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I would've liked to see powder blue pants with yellow bolt and yellow socks paired with the white away jersey. Numbers on the helmet make TV numbers redundant. The larger bolt on the jersey without the extra trim is an upgrade. Powder blue is Chargers football.

Maroon Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I don't like the Chargers at all and have always thought their uniforms were bland. These are good. Very good. Others have put forward what they like and I have nothing to add except that the Navy looks incredible.

BadSeed84 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 It's interesting that the tv numbers are not a requirement anymore. But clearly having a corny slogan on the inside neckline is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
