If When the Giants go back to this look full-time in a couple seasons, I hope the correct this so the blues are all uniform. Teams like the Giants and Rams wore navy helmets because Riddell only made navy blue (Rams, Giants, 80s Kansas, et al) or light blue (Broncos, Ole Miss, late 80s Tulsa, and maybe San Jose St) until regular royal blue helmets were manufactured in the early 90s for Kansas and the Ohio Glory of the WLAF. 5 1 Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschoolvikings Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I would expect within the next year or two, the Vikings will do something similar with a 70’s era throwback and a darker, non-matte, non metallic purple helmet. The white version would be nice. 8 1 http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damnyoutuesday Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 So is the white version gone? Or will these both live in tandem like the Dolphins do with their throwbacks Sorry, I'm on an iPad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I can hope for is that this means the blue jersey is getting the primary designation this season. Black pants was the worst thing to happen to this team since Jimmy Clausen. this guy gets it. keep it classic Panthers. 2 2 Carolina Dreamin' ΓΔΒ ΓΔΒ ΓΔΒ When a robotic Nixon is on the loose, we have a duty to take action.

pagan696 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 23 hours ago, dont care said: How do you make a matte decal? It will always end up looking glossy because it’s rubber and not painted, and even if it was the outer surface will still be the smooth glossy rubber the helmet decals are 2 layer, a base layer and an overlaminate to protect the printed base layer. you can get matte, lustre, glossy, and even a metallic flake finish laminates. i prefer a gloss helmet and gloss decals, but matte finish has a lot of supporters.

pagan696 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 i think the Panthers black helmet alt needs to: -add the silver accents to helmet decals to match shoulder logos... or new CR uni that is just black and process blue. one or the other. -use gloss helmet and gloss decals. matte looks cheap. last thought on the Panthers black helmet alt announcement, its at home Thurs Nov 10 v ATL. ATL will prob go all red color rush pajamas, so i expect a terrible match up for TV aesthetics. 1 Carolina Dreamin' ΓΔΒ ΓΔΒ ΓΔΒ When a robotic Nixon is on the loose, we have a duty to take action.

DCarp1231 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Technically speaking, couldn’t Atlanta just wear the red helmet with current logo and gradient uniform? It sticks to the very loose rule of “alternate uniform only”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether that actually happens is anybody's guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
