DG_ThenNowForever Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 How about this one?Of course, it's no one-off minor league hockey jersey, but it IS historically significant. Coupled with the Carolina Panthers, it is responsible for moving the NFL from the classic style of its entire history to the swooshes, angles, and other eccentricities we see on uniforms today. And if that's not bad enough, it's the uniform that launched a thousand ugly high school and college football programs across the country.It's mildly aesthetically pleasing, but for long-term historical damage, I think the 1997 Denver Broncos uniform needs to be in the conversation. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check it out. Instead of a DH they have a spot in the batting order called a "joker" that is why they have the Harlequin pattern.

rmered Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Aussie Rules has it's shockers:Special mention has to go to these 1933 Hawthorn jumpers:They were a mustard/gold with a brown vee, but the impressive thing about these beauties is the coach (Fred Phillips) pulled one on, however his arm had an open wound. The dye from the jumpers infected the wound, and he DIED of septicemia (blood poisoning) from the jumper.Not surprisingly, they only wore them the one year.

Greg Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 personally one of my favourites but generally never fails to shock.if youre wondering, the jersey is described as: claret, grey, chocolate and pail blue quarters with black and green trim.Harlequins Rugby Club have been playing in those colors since 1870.doesn't mean it's good, man.Well in 1870 they didn't have the bright dyes we have today. Keeping the old colors is called tradition, man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a grey-facemasked, plain striped jersey, thus rendering it less than holy. Swooshes, angles and other such design elements should be entirely outlawed as a blasphemy against the Holy Order of the Vanilla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It spawned some good uniforms, but for the most part it inspired crap like the minnesota vikings uniforms and Cincinnati Bengals and launched us into the age of side stripes and piping. While some of those uniforms pull it off, I agree the Denver Broncos started a bad age in football uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your broad-brush condemnation of newer designs is by no means a universal, as you and your bretheren seem to purport by casting aside the likes of Cincy, Minnesota, et al as some sort of abomination. These updates, while not always successful, mark an evolution that has broken the typical design patterns that had repeated themselves to the point of boredom. Suggesting this development was something bad simply highlights the tendency of some to cling blindly to old paradigms in design simply because "that's how we've always done it."This is how design, across every platform, moves forward.
