dont care Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 1 hour ago, BBTV said: The horn is basically a platform for the swoosh to live in, just like the Seahawks and Vikings have designs that highlight Nike’s advertisement. It’s brilliant on Nike’s end, but lousy that it puts their brand on par or even above the team’s. The swoosh is above the horn, not in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WideRight Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Weird Idea: What if the horns on the sleeves of the uniform that has been leaked are not the same on the back as the front. What if they actually extend across the entire back to form one huge set of longhorn horns, with the player name in white within the center of the two horns (blue)? Hmmm.. that may be worth a concept. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm.. that may be worth a concept. I’ve said essentially the same thing about the now-outgoing NYJ uniforms, with their pointy plane wing jersey stripes, since they were introduced. That could’ve been really cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 14 hours ago, mattr1198 said: Not too much of an upgrade, not a downgrade either. Texans brand is pretty boring as is, and sure the horn sleeves and the number color swap are upgrades, but something just feels kinda "meh" about their brand still. The Oilers were a tough act to follow, and the Texans' brand is too limited conceptually. I still think they made a big mistake not picking Apollos as the name. 3 Quote POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 'game action' is an estimate of what they look like. I see red in the sleeve horn, and that would fit Nike's MO for how they handle the swoosh. Quote It's where I sit.

I want to be extremely clear that if these shoulder horns extend across the back of these jerseys, it will be the exact opposite of 'cool'.

Blast_Brothers Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 If the swoosh was in the horn, Nike would've made it white so it would be even easier to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burgundy Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 2 hours ago, MDGP said: Took me a bit to find it at first too. The stripe being horizontal due to the player squatting threw me off. So is the stripe truncated, as Nike has been known to do, or is he wearing an untucked navy undershirt? I don't think this phrase has ever been said before, but... I'm hoping his shirt is untucked. 10 minutes ago, Sec19Row53 said: I don't think there's been a clear view that shows this. The 'game action' is an estimate of what they look like. I see red in the sleeve horn, and that would fit Nike's MO for how they handle the swoosh. It is most definitely a stripe. If that were the swoosh then it would be backwards, too far down the sleeve, and too far forward. The blue spot above the horn is the swoosh. You can see it in the reflection. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see in the reflection that the horn stops at the sleeve cap - thankfully. 14 minutes ago, burgundy said: So is the stripe truncated, as Nike has been known to do, or is he wearing an untucked navy undershirt?

It looks to be a truncated stripe with the Texans logo in the gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
