Plus you can look at the NHL's switch to Reebok Edge to see how every team that got rid of metallic fabric made a bad decision. That funny because when I was writing about how cheesy metallic fabrics look, the Golden Knights uniform was exactly what I was thinking about. 1 3 http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I'd keep all-blue at home but white over grey would be good on the road. 1 ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as good up close, but a great starting point to work with. This is a great summary of them. At least they are a lot better than the set they just wore for almost 20 years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fouhy12 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 I actually really like the metallic silver stripes on the sleeve. I think the uniform would look a lot better with numbers on the shoulders and some solid red socks. This looks so much better. Some more red on the uniform makes the splash of silver pop nicely without the primary color getting totally washed out. 18 1 fouhy12's NFL Concepts 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah (maybe unpopular opinion) the Seahawks all blue somehow works where most other color rush-style uniforms don't. Keep this as the primary (this should be worn in primetime and the green jerseys should be burned) and this as an alternate (wear this during sunny day games) 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 The only three things I don't like about the Seahawks uniforms - and I trend towards traditionalist, but not "traditionalist for traditionalist's sake", is how Nike worked the swoosh into a carefully-crafted bright background, the unnecessary and gimmicky helmet thing, and how there's no green on the gray pants. Other than that, as far as I'm concerned, they're in their forever uniforms. While I've liked the idea of the Seahawks being the NFL's Oregon, now that they've been in those for what - 11 seasons? - they should just stick with it. The overrated-throwback uniform twice a year should be enough to appease fans of the older look. 13 "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."

It would only be games played on TNF, SNF, or MNF. Otherwise most of their games are played in the day due to typically playing the 4:30 EST / 1:30 PST game since they’re on the west coast.

Once they get all of the mono stuff out of their system - may take weeks, may take 2-3 years - they’ll settle on White/Red/White/Red, along with the mock-up above for Away games, and this set will get its flowers.

MCM0313 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 22 hours ago, oldschoolvikings said: The Cardinals' all white uniforms look like ass. The silver inner stripe on the pants and jersey just completely disappears. It looks like two very thin red stripes placed weirdly wide. And that's because they made the absolutely moronic decision to make those stripes reflective. Why? Same reason teams put useless sublimated patterns in their numbers... because they can. All reflective, or chrome, or metallic thread elements on sports uniforms are garbage. Not usually. Not mostly. Always. Including helmets? What about dazzle fabrics? Personally, my take is that the only “always” I’m willing to go with is that plain white socks are always hot garbage. I have half a mind that Nike intentionally started that fad, and the mono fad, so they wouldn’t have to dye each pair of socks a team color - just dye a bunch white and a bunch black and you have 75-80% of your sock needs for the season covered. The Cards’ road uniforms would be fine with red socks. In fact they’d be a massive upgrade from the Adidas abominations if they had red socks. As is, they’re a modest upgrade. Also, unpopular opinion time: I’ve always liked the reflective silver numbers on the Seahawks’ current homes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's better than the Browns chest stripe on their nike uniforms but I still hate it. That be nice jerseys is it was just the sleeve desgin and not the chest extension.

Yeah in a perfect world they’d make the throwbacks the primaries, but within their current set I just wanna know what people think of gray vs blue pants because the grey looks better but lacks any green, making them look more like a blue-grey team vs blue-green team.

The Seahawks' color distribution is all out of whack, anyway. The helmet is navy, with gray and white details, and a tiny drop of green. The home jersey is navy, with a fair amount of gray, green trim and no white. The white jersey has navy numbers, a small amount of green, and no gray. The navy pants have green trim, but no white, or gray. The gray and white pants have no green. WTH? 7 http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
