New Orleans Saints Concept


ColeJ

Recommended Posts

first of all, i'd like to say that these uniforms would be used whenever the saints return home to louisiana. if they end up moving to cali or san antonio after this season, i'd hope they don't keep the name saints... then, whenever the NFL returns to louisiana, they can bring back saints football where it belongs...

as always, my concepts come with a little bit of talky-talky beforehand.

football seems to be moving away from sleeve stripes, because sleeves are disappearing from football... so you try to design something to keep up with the times... i tried my best to keep this away from the overly modern bengals style, or the overly copied falcons style... i tried to be modern, but unique...

i've heard many people beg for the saints to return to a more vibrant gold color, lately... i agree, so i used a stronger brighter gold color... it's still metallic. it's not yellow... but it's less washed out.

next up, for some reason, i've always wanted to see the saints incorporate a tiny bit of silver into their look. don't ask me why... i just think of black, gold, and silver as being a very unique and nice color scheme. and if any city can pull of both metallic gold AND metallic silver, it's nawlins.

so, now that i've typed more than anyone is likely going to read, i present my concept to the masses.

each uniform has 2 sets of pants that are available to wear... the primary pants will be on the left, while the alternate "change of pace" pants will be on the right.

ROADS:

ALTERNATE:

also, the silver is minimal, so it may not be as easy to see in certain spots... if it looks like there might be silver there, there is. there's a silver outline used in the logo, the numbers, the stripes, the helmets, the socks, the pants, the collars... there are a lot of little specks of silver used all over. so like i said, if it looks like there's silver, there is. that should give you a better idea as to what it would look like in person.

any and all comments are welcome. i put a lot of effort into all of my concepts, and since i'm not a professional, nor do i aspire to be one, feedback is what makes it worth my while.

I like it. Its got a bit of the "U" feel to it, but it works. Although i agree that Nawlins is the best city to pull off Silver and Gold, id rather see just the Gold, Black, and White. Overall though, solid.

Great job, I really like this concept a lot.

It does have a bit of a Miami look to it, but not enough to piss me off :D

I especially like the gold alt. You really found the perfect gold color for them. The only thing I would do away with is the white pants. Other than that, I would love to see the Saints wear these (preferably not in Cali).

I like these a lot. Still not crazy about the gold jerseys, but I am not a fan of metallic jerseys of any kind. They never seem to match up with the pants or the helmet.

My only complaint is actually a question: are all of the uniform numbers meant to be double-outlined? The black jersey appears to have white/black/gold numbers. The white jersey appears to have black/gold/black numbers. But the gold jerseys appear to have white/black numbers. Is this inconsistency intentional?

Besides that little question, these look sweet.

In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17.

they all have 3 color numbers (but 2 of the colors on the road are black... meh :))

the alternate has white/silver/black... not easily noticable... but it's there.

thanks for the comments everyone. keep them coming. i appreciate them all. :)

Pretty nice overall. The main problem that I have is that there are 3 different colors of pants and 3 different jerseys. While I know you suggested the pants to wear with each jersey, there are still 9 possible combinations of uniforms. Just something to think about.

i don't see that as a problem :)

and actually, i ruled out all monochrome looks... so there isn't 9 possible combos. there are 6... and that's not unheard of, is it?

Nice concept. Do the Saints have an alt logo?

They used to use the Louisiana outline with the fleur-de-lis in the northern part of the state. I don't know if that's still an official secondary logo. If it isn't, it should be.
