RyanMcD29 Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 For the pocket pro helmet collectors out there, Riddell's finally got the Washington helmets available. I think it's $5.99 rather than the usual $4.99 because it's considered limited edition but it's way better than those shoddy custom made ones going for 30 bucks or more that I saw on ebay last season. Mine should be coming early next week so I'll post that and the new Bills one when it comes. Bringing this back on topic, I know it's par for the course with players reactions to uniforms, but I laugh how earlier in the week they were saying how the sleeves were a "throwback" and in the end it's just a white version of the set they have right now. It is much better than the bone jersey, so I'll at least give them that for clearing that low bar. Twitter: @RyanMcD29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn’t you just buy an old helmet and take the stickers off and have the same result? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 The Giants still insist on wearing white jerseys with red numbers/stripes and red socks, so what concern would there be? 4 ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally slightly prefer navy on a simply aesthetic level as well, the Giants are just part of the reason for that. 2 hours ago, the admiral said: The Giants still insist on wearing white jerseys with red numbers/stripes and red socks, so what concern would there be? That’s fair, I was only referring to the home uniforms, really. Funnily enough though, if the Giants ever went with plain blue numbers on the road, they might end up looking too much like the Cowboys 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 The Cowboys and Giants are two of the worst teams in terms of uniform cohesiveness. One team can’t even settle on a blue/silver scheme and has mismatching uniforms while the other team also has mismatching uniforms and refuses to add red to their home jersey and blue to their away jersey. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consistency is not a prerequisite for having a good look Ideally, you want that--BUT, it's not the only prerequisite. In the case of the Giants, their current sets pull straight from the looks of their Y.A. Tittle days (well except for the home gray pants--they chose the wrong version). All that to the side, I always thought of their uniform sets an interesting case study in "cohesive dichotomy*". Some teams manage to pull this off to great effect. (Ucla in the '90s-early 2010s is another example.) They shouldn't work together, but in both instances, they do, and do so well. That is NOT the case with the Cowboys, however, and not even longstanding tradition can fix that. I understand Texas-sized hubris will prevent Jones N 'Em from doing any effective update, but man would they profit from it. (Actually, that's the BEST reason for them to update: profit. they already are near or at the top in league apparel sales; how much more would they sell with an update? See, this mess ain't hard...tap into your inner Ferengi Mr. Jones and make this happen!) 5 *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...

Red is at least a part of the Giants color scheme. Royal blue, black (the outline of the sleeve pattern), and turquoise silver aren't even in the team's main scheme. The Giants road jersey is nice, the Cowboys white jersey is total trash. 6 NYC x STL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the B/W and W/R jerseys and that they differ so. The all white fauxbacks are a nice break. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 The 10 in that graphic looks more like the serif version of MLB block than it does varsity block like what the Giants use. The inside of the 0 has the little notches in the corners rather than having 90-degree corners. What's the source for that? 1 "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."
