New Ohio State Jerseys

[Ben5]

I really like the road uniforms. I'd go as far as calling them perfect.

I can't see why people keep saying they look like Georgia. Georgia has numbers outlined in black and no sleeve stripes and a black collar. Thus 3 of the 4 major design elements that make up a football jersey [color, numbers, sleeves, and collar/cuffs] are different, so how exactly do they look alike?

[Braden]

What I like about the new homes is that the jersey stripes match the helmet and pants stripes.

Of course the jersey itself will be compared to Georgia, Wisconsin, whatever. But the uniform as a whole is much different.

The road jerseys are a BIG improvement.

[Discrim]

i know what you mean, like I been sayin, the homes look more like Wisconsin than Ugla. the roads look different enough, but the homes could be switched with Wisconsin's and you'd only notice differently when you started wondering when Ohio State started using the motion W

The two times the jerseys were announced as being on sale during the Spring Game, they were slightly booed.

Maybe not sleeve stripes but bands at the ends of the sleeves.

I won't hotlink to SSUR but there's a pic there:

Agreed that there's no similarity beyond both using red, black and white - well, that and the fact that they are both football jerseys with holes for the heads and arms, etc...

the problem is it doesnt SCREAM ..THEE OHIO STATE.

you could look at the old ones and know that its the BUCKEYES.

And finally, the authentics...

[doafhat]

Wow, the black stripes on those are virtually non-existent. That looks like it should be at Nebraska instead of Ohio State.

[MJWalker45]

where did you pull these from? I didn't see them on eastbay or the OSU fan shop

[sj32]

Is there any reason why Nike is putting the numbers on the shoulders for the authentics and the sleeves for the replicas?

[quantum]

I miss the Tampa Bay Bandits

But since this is about The Ohio State, Go Badgers!

This board said I couldn't directly post the pics due to the extension, so I put them on Tinypic.

That is a little confusing. I think it has to do with the actual jerseys having smaller sleeves. If you cut the sleeves down after you get it you can actually have the person making the alteration move the sleeve stripe all the way up to the shoulder. With replica jerseys, not so much since the material isn't as durable

This is terrible, just terrible I tell you. These are gonna have to go. Somebody's gotta protest in Columbus!!!!!

Bring Back the Old Jerseys!!!!!!

[MJWalker45]

I really don't mind these uniforms, at least the aways. I think if Nike is able to recreate the stripe pattern from last year, even if it's a little thinner, they should go ahead and do that. But I think the new away shirt should stay.

I totally agree. They aren't bad, but they aren't what they used to be and that's what I don't like about them.

[OB33]

Here's the new unis on actual player...with pads. Bizarre I know, but nevertheless here they are:

[BigShoop]

So, one question that I cant seem to find the answer for: WHY?

[TheStoicPaisano]

They look terrible on the players who don't wear elastic on the sleeves.
