HailGoldPants Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 There have been some WFT photoshopped helmet concepts floating around Twitter... As a WFT fan, I generally like our unis, but they feel incomplete without helmet stripes. I'm hoping to see at least a single gold stripe down the middle of the helmets next season. 8 Check out my site at stevebcreations.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4_tattoos Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Bring back the WFT's gold pants in 2021! Can do without the striped burgundy socks though. 11 Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Honestly all of those look great. I’d fully expect stripes to be back on the helmet next season 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sky1324 Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 I understand why people want helmet stripes (and I agree that they'd look much better with them), but I'm pretty sure the reason they don't have any right now is to not give fans any design elements to be attached to during the Football Team era. I guarantee you we'll see them when the team has a proper name. 5 the user formerly known as cdclt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFGiants58 Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Besides, the stripe was a vestigial part of the identity, from their pre-1979 set. You see how the northwestern helmet stripe fits with the Packers-style stripes elsewhere? It's why the gold pants/striped burgundy socks worked so well with the helmet (not the jersey). If Washington wants a helmet stripe to go with the 1979-present set, I suggest aping the '80s Virginia Cavaliers: Gotta stick with the asymmetrical motif. 16 MLB: Project 32 (Complete), MLB: The Defunct Saga (Complete) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krudler Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 To me the WFT's main look should always be white jersey and burgundy pants. It's what I grew up with, it's what they won their two Super Bowls in. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave-Bird 08 Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I've got a wildcard prediction: the Falcons will add a grey pant to their set. I think it's definitely notable that they unveiled red pants and red socks but never used them, probably because they were so soundly rejected by fans. A lot of fans asked for grey pants after the unveil because of how it would balance out the facemask, and the top brass with the Falcons/ATLUTD have a pretty good track record of listening and reading the room. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AstroCree Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 People are writing "WFT" but all I see is "WTF" Why did Washington get rid of the helmet stripes to begin with? I felt something was off about their helmets this season minus the logo removal. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the stripes wouldn’t even be considered “Football Team Era”. If anything, the stripeless helmet w/ numbers is definitively the “Football Team Era”. They would’ve been better off just removing the old logo and keeping everything else if they didn’t want to stray too far into the “Football Team Era”. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been due for a new set since the day they unveiled their current clownsuits. I'm convinced that the only reason they didn't rebrand years ago is because Mike Brown is too cheap to commission it. 13 POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptay Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Rundown of Washington Football Team's president Jason Wright's comments on the radio today: -Burgundy and gold is staying as team colors -Name should connect to area or history of the club (basically be meaningful to the fanbase and not some random name) -Research shows that fans want an identity that conveys a "sense of aggression, of boldness, of edginess" -New name will most likely be announced AFTER the 2021 season 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
