That's pretty good - about as good as you can do with what they gave you to work with (though the bottom corners of the 6 and 8 should probably be squared?) Regardless, and it has nothing to do with your work, IMO it wouldn't be an improvement. It's too "bulky" (kinda like the new Falcons), and the 1 is super weird. The current font is nothing to rave about (and also has a really wonky 1) but I'd prefer them keep it than go with something like this. 2 "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."

DCarp1231 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 I’d be willing to bet the Seahawks do what Dallas did this year and use the alternate helmet with two different designs for the two alternate uniforms. It’ll be a silver/grey helmet that will use current logos for the all wolf grey look and the second design will be for throwbacks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Seahawks have used mono Wolf-Gray since the team's redesign a decade ago, and it looks miles better than the Lions' anthracite dumpster fire. It does wonders that it's light enough to look like white from a distance. I'd be willing to see the Seahawks ditch the white jerseys in favor of gray full time, I think this is an example of a non-white color done well. The Rams could learn a thing or too from this set. I'd vastly prefer to see the neon barf color rush get canned, but if this season is indeed the final year of Wolf Gray's tenure, it should at least go out with the respect it deserves. 13 Perrin Grubb | Aspiring Designer | NAFA Project ~ NFL Redesigns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the most unneeded secondary and doesn't deserve any respect beyond that. It doesn't even deserve the name "wolf gray", because that just makes it sound cooler than what it is: a light gray uniform that is almost indistinguishable from the white and half the time you have to squint at the TV to try to figure out if they're wearing white or light gray. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Seahawks could have introduced a silver helmet this year to go with it and smartly chose not to do so. 6 Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

The wolf grey jersey looks great with the navy pants. I could almost live with the neon green jerseys if they broke it up by using white pants instead of head to toe highlighter but we know that ship idea has sailed already. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOOVER Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 I'm a fan of Grey uniforms, and I know I'm in the minority. I actually like Detroit's Dark Steel Grey (it's not Anthracite) and Seattle's Wolf Grey as alternates. Seattle's best look is Navy/Navy/Grey, so I hope if they must get rid of the Grey jersey (do they have to?) that they at least keep the Grey pant, so that they don't go mono-Navy. The Seahawks throwbacks will look great on the modern template/fabric and I look forward to seeing them. I think there's a general swing in society starting now to go back to some more traditional things; I think it's part-nostalgia, part-burnout of everything "modern", and part-emotional desire to see things go back to simpler times as an escape for how wild & obscene today's world is. Either way, I'm in support of it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope they can pull it off, but I have to think it is going to be something different from the logo wrapping the sleeve.

No attempt to differentiate from the green helmet in any way besides shell color, no attempt to include green in any way, just a weak helmet overall.

Probably not too different than the sleeves circa 2000. They'll be cut off at the seams for sure and my guess is they'll probably be thinner than these: I wonder if shiny silver pants will be back! 7 Smart is believing half of what you hear.

Indigo Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Theoetically, if Seattle ever did wamt to go back to this look full time, they could uses the chest sleeves from Cleveland's disasterous set, thus creating room for the logo to be hidden in the stripe whilst still being distinguishable from said stripe. Their current set shows they have no problem stretching onto the sleeves. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's basically the same width as the Steelers striping now, just be prepared for the tip of the Seahawk beak to be tucked up under someone's sleeve band. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
