ninersdd Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 Man, today this was the first time they did it since the comeback against the Giants in the playoffs. I don't really like the red background with the current script. The old mark of red and gold was the bomb Did any of you guys see it?

BBTV Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 Just saw a clip that showed half (the "ers") of the endzone. From what I saw, it looked great. Looked like the letters were red, with the background a darker red (like the jerseys.) Sucks they wore their throwbacks, though - their uni's look awesome with the darker red and black trim. The throwbacks look... well they look old. Throw 'em back.

Krona Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 On a side note, check out the placement of the RBK logo on Alex Smiths jersey. I've never seen it within a stripe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen it within a stripe.I'm not sure if it's like that on all 9ers' throwbacks, but it's inside the middle stripe on my '02 Jason Webster gamer. I'd take a pic, but it's in my dorm.

ColeJ Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 that's how they do it on the new york rangers jerseys, too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otherwilds Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 Those Niner throwbacks are one of my personal faves. Simplicity.And i like the look created by using the darker red in the endzone. It gave some depth and allowed the emblem to to be real focal point, hope they keep it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronChefShark Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 joe starkey on the 49ers radio broadcast said that they are "considering it" not that its a definite thing.the fact of the matter is, while you see a lot of throwbacks being worn by the fans, all those throwbacks have MONTANA, YOUNG, LOTT, CRAIG, RICE on the back of them. They do sell alex smith, frank gore, and vernon davis throwbacks, but the vast majority of those players jerseys being sold are the modern look. fans were clamoring for the team to upgrade the uniform back in the 80's when the team was winning super bowls. I have yet to hear any 49ers fan talk about how they hate the modern uniform. It sells very well and is popular with all generations of the fanbase. There will be no full-time throwbacks anytime soon thankfully. US state flag concepts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OB33 Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 I'm pretty sure the 49ers endzone was red because of the holidays, I think there was also a little bit of wreath fringe near the parts of the edges of the endzone.It was a nice look, IMO. #CHOMPCHOMPCHOMP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They flipped out so bad it will always be known as the "one day logo". Niners fans lived with the changes, more than they gobbled it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont thing Steeler fans were clamoring for a new look in the late 70s. Those Niner fans didnt care what the team was wearing, as long as they were winning. the change came because they wanted to sell more product. not just jerseys, but hats, jackets, shot glasses and tote bags. I hate the new look. its the late 90s space age oval thing. Being a Rams fan who grew up in the bay area, those old uniforms are reminders of awful disappointment and heartbreak, but i'd rather see them than the niners new unis that remind everyone of their failure. and why no hate for the black? everyone is always ragging on adding black to uniforms, but these get so much love. and dont say black was always in the logo. it was an outline, not an accent. much like the grey on the steelers logo. that is all.

They took those uniforms and modernized them, and came out with one of the best looking jerseys in the NFL. It's not like they added black numbers or black pants, or, lord help us, a black jersey. THAT would look disgusting. They added gold to the logo; and gold and a black drop-shadow to the numbers and sleeve stripes. The red and white jersey is the nostalgic one that gave us four Super Bowls, and is great for a throwback, the modern uniform is the superior-looking one.
