Old School Fool Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Fixed Colts stripes on the new template possibly? I know it's a video game but the Colts stripes looked like they did on the left in real life for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOOVER Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 I feel like this complaint was overblown. It was improved on the Vapor Untouchable template, which the Colts only wore with their Color Rush set: Not sure how anyone could complain about that.

Likely edited but it's not far off and depends on lighting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschoolvikings Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Interesting fact I heard today about that Lions alt helmet logo. Apparently, the Lion will be flipped so he's always facing forward, but the stripes will not. On both sides, the blue will be to the left of the gray. 8 http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8BW14 Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 That Lions helmet is sharp, but it just doesn’t look like it belongs on an NFL field. Looks like one of those merch helmets a dude would put in his man cave or behind his desk at work. 13 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or in the background of an irrelevant video situated on the top shelf in the team equipment manager’s office and that makes everyone think it’s a clue to future plans. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostOfNormMacdonald Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 As someone who loves it when teams do a mix of modern and retro (a la Vikings) I love the helmet. It's phenomenal. I just wish they would wear it with the Thanksgiving throwback unis instead of the big grey blob 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lions blue has always towed the line between regular royal blue and Panthers process blue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And just for the sake of comparison, I present these: Spring Game 2023 Gallery: https://lsusports.net/news/2023/04/24/gallery-football-spring-game/ also has them wearing the old jerseys and they just look....old. It's subjective. But I feel the newer template, with the clean cut across the horizontal seam, looks cleaner, sleeker, and just better overall. My opinion. And I wore the old style in high school, so I should be partial, but I'm not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave-Bird 08 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 LSU's full shoulder loop experiment was a disaster. The stripe wasn't running under anything, so it just looked like a drape hanging down to their armpits. So unnatural, forced, bad. It's my taste alone, but having shoulder stripes simply crest the shoulder and cut off at the collarbone makes much more sense -- plus gives some breathing room. Of course, it looked like Nike had finally gotten it right with the last template -- unfortunately it was only doable for certain jersey cuts. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolingian Steamroller Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Shoulder loops are about width. Traditionally, loops have been the same width and proportion of Brashier stripes on pants. Now that width is a little too much for the jersey cut to really handle. You can see how the LSU template where the stripes go all the way down look a little off. Under Armour solved this problem by making the loops narrower while Nike bipasses the issue by cutting the off. I think both work and its a matter of taste. Note that UCLA with UA didn't need to think about matching pant stripe width because UCLA has no pant stripes. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it isn't a loop, it [wait for it] isn't a loop. 3 It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
