DCarp1231 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Just now, dont care said: What are you talking about? Yes they use 3 blues, but it’s for 3 different sets and they aren’t interchangeable. The cowboys use 2 blues, 3 silvers, and black all in the same uniform combo Yeah and it sucks. They’re taking up three lanes on a two way street 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me wonder where they will go next. I do not want some sort of hybrid between the 2000's uniforms with the 80's jets logo. I also feel like they will keep black in some capacity.

I actually really like it. The GUD art makes it look a bit off due to the slightly different shade of Green, but the actual photo from 1978 makes it look much better. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it's an unpopular opinion or what (given opinions about sleeve stripes on modern templates, etc.), but this is the solution I'd advocate for. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GriffinM6 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 I think I've said it before, but this logo really needs to come back. If you told me this was brand new made in 2022, I'd 100% believe you. Just like the Bills logo, it's absolutely timeless. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tBBP Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Since it appears the Jetjack is in full effect... ...I can't even believe I'm about to post this, but: I'm legitimately amazed and thus cannot believe how much these uniforms have grown on me! Granted, much of it has to do with the color green, but for what these are, they're actually really solid. I can even deal the green-on-green look, as well. But only these combinations. This, however, can get gone: (Along with the white-on-black they've been doing the past three weeks...that can get gone, too.) 25 1 1 *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...
fouhy12 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 That finish on the current helmet in particular is gorgeous. Make the stripes on the pants just a single stripe down the leg, and that's a really good uniform as long as they wear the right combinations. Stick to green over white and white over green, both with contrasting socks. 16 fouhy12's NFL Concepts 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, however, can get gone: (Along with the white-on-black they've been doing the past three weeks...that can get gone, too.) I'm there with you. While I would still advocate for a combination of the 60s and 80s looks (or really their current green helmet with the 80s/90s logo on the 60s-style striped-up uniforms), the current uniform is not bad, per se when none of the elements are black and there's contrast between the elements. (Yes, that's a lot of caveats, but this is my long-winded way of agreeing with you: they aren't terrible uniforms when worn properly.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chromatic Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Regardless of the striping or logos or anything, I hated the previous shade of green the Jets used so much I would take the current uniforms over them every time. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolingian Steamroller Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 18 hours ago, LA Fakers+ LA Snippers said: You can even take this further by deepening the shade of blue and making the silver even more pale. That's how the OG Lions were able to get the necessary contrast. You can see from this photo, just how close the silver on the pants is to the Bears' white (also side note: Sayers with a white facemask). The sleeve treatments and numbers look almost white. I actually think think the shiny Oregon style numbers would work better with the flat finish fabrics that are used today, providing even more contrast. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolingian Steamroller Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 One other idea would be to use the silver numbers with white outlining, something Air Force currently does to great effect (and using a similar blue): 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that this was an underrated rebrand, aside from any black pants look. It looks fine and feels both retro and modern, but now that the team refuses to wear anything green, a rebrand is likely, although I'm now worried black is gonna end up being more dominant.

The only mistake they made was in not bringing back, or at least modernizing, the old helmet wordmark. And as someone else said, they could ditch the black versions. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFB Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 The thing I‘ll never understand about the current Jets look is that they built the entire new uniform around the “>” shape, but left out the 80s logo that would tie the entire concept together. 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YEP. The only thing that doesn't make sense is keeping a form of the wordmark from the old/60s set. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
