Old School Fool Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Here's Tom Brady wearing the new helmet for the first time. Also note the others are wearing the old helmet. The resized logo is definitely better, it's big but not too big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The size looks good, but it does look kinda awkward with the sword handle on top of the ear hole instead of beside it Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

Almost the cleaned up skull would be better with a little more character if they did that it would be one of the best logos in the league.

I was referring to the obnoxious size of the logo on the helmet. Truth be told, I have no strong feelings between the original logo and the updated logo. I think they're both decent with possibly a few to many things going on. In any case, the big logo on the helmet just screamed "college" to me. I still think it's too big, but it's definitely an improvement. Unpopular opinion? I like the current smaller Saints helmet logo better than previous iterations.

The resized logo is definitely better, it's big but not too big. The new helmet is a good compromise between the two approaches for sure, but I loved the huge helmet logo for them since it removed the issue with the height of the sword pushing the flag up near the crown of the helmet. This one... made much better use of the space than this one did- Not to mention that it just looks really awesome, but I think I can still appreciate the newest compromise.

I’d rather have the flag further up with no obstructions rather than being covered up by face mask hardware and chinstraps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radchad Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 I always felt that the helmet with the oversized logo looked particularly bad from the front. It just looks like two random red pointy things on either side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WavePunter Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Having them slightly higher makes more sense from a subject-matter standpoint as well.. "raising" the flag as you charge into battle is more logical.. at least to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I liked the huge logo too. A giant Jolly Roger just looks more (piratey) than a little one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel75 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Am I crazy or is the orange outline inside the numbers a different thickness in these pics? About the only thing I would have preferred on the new jerseys are thicker orange outlines like in the bottom picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tBBP Posted May 27, 2020 Author Share Posted May 27, 2020 It would've also helped had Tampa stuck with the brighter (or original) orange the first time around, and/or utilized it this go-round...logo stuff (and pewter color issue) aside, that'd be about the only complaint I have, minor as it is, about an otherwise perfect uniform. *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
