selgy Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I don't know if I like the fact that on some uniform combos the helmet and shoulder stripes match (black stripes) and on some they don't (black stripes on helmet, orange stripes on jersey) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone should just accept that now. I think the all-white looks rather awesome. It's like the color rush, but the orange outlines provide enough color for the helmet to feel included. They will probably be ~43% less cool than that picture looks because they'll wear it with all white socks. I've learned to live with the mono black. It's not my favorite, but They'll wear it 2 or 3 times a season at most so I can manage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sky1324 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I don't mind the jersey and pants matching (in fact, I quite like it on a lot of teams) but you've got to wear contrasting socks. This is also why teams shouldn't have pants of every color, so they have socks that will always contrast (see: Chargers, Los Angeles). Swap those Bengals socks for orange and that is an incredible set. the user formerly known as cdclt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The contrasting collars make both jerseys look better. I'd like to black collars on the white jersey as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think I’ve ever seen a more unbalanced uniform than the white set. It would only work with a white helmet as it is it’s insanely top heavy to say the least.

I like the look of both, as monochrome doesn’t bother me as much if there’s an interesting design on the pants. Much like the Seahawks and hopefully the Bengals. However if the Bengals only had orange pants the color balance would work out nicely. The white jersey which might have only splashes of orange, would have orange pants. This would also help balance out the orange helmet. It would look pretty great with the black jerseys as well.

DCarp1231 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I’m not sure how anyone can truly justify the Bengals having a white helmet for the sake of having a white helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked when they wore orange socks with the all white because when they used to play the Titans when they were the Houston Oilers, The Los Angeles Rams when they wear blue and yellow-gold, and Green Bay Packers, it look great and clash well with those said team colors they rival.

Makes sense with the slightly darkened orange. No, the sleeves are orange. The reebok stuff is just removed, no more shadow block numbers. Plus the road whites will have orange, just that the home colors will be like what the leak sows if it is THE REAL LEAK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it looks that out of place. Would they look better with a white helmet? Probably, but the helmet has tiger stripes, the uniform has tiger stripes. There's cohesion going on. The logo is orange, the name on the back is outlined with orange, the players wear orange accessories, swoosh is orange, the helmet is orange, and that's the helmet we're familiar with the team when we see the Cincinnati Bengals. It's not like there's no orange in the uniform. There's more to tie the helmet to this uniform than, for instance, the Giants blue helmet with their white jersey. Also, I'm of the belief that not every part of the uniform needs to use every color for things to sing in harmony. Reasons I like it: the block number font looks tough and sturdy, unlike the illegible drop-shadowed blob number they were wearing. Without an outline on the numbers they look crisp and match the uniforms' stripes. And it really was a case that the regular uniforms looked so ~EGGGHHHH~ that people would get more excited than usual about any positive improvement. For myself it was just nice to be in the stadium and actually be able to legibly read the numbers. I didn't want this uniform to become the basis for a new look like a lot of people were asking, but it was a nice reprieve a couple times a year to see them in these than their usual tired and bleck uniforms. This helmet looks out of place here. With that color rush uniform, it still works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
