vikmurphy Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 They should wear them twice a year one set home, one set road. I even would like to see the Vikings purple pants very underated and unique to the NFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure it will spark the team to lose 13-10, instead of 16-10. Just means there is one more game, where the current conssssseerrrrrvvvvative coaching staff, won't trot out the purple pants.Vikings football: 8 and 8 and proud of it.

I liked the old style stripes on the shoulders of the white jerseys, but I think the new ones work much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSUViking Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 I love the throwbacks. The purple is much darker. I even like the gray facemasks, and normally I HATE gray facemasks but they seem to work well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Thank you Vikings. I will no longer have to vomit at your choice of attire while you play the Bears. Hopefully the Bears will have come to their senses and be wearing the navy pants with the white jerseys be then. At least we will be able to see a beautiful uniform match up, which will hopefully distract us from the pitiful slap-fight taking place on the field.

Nomad Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 While I don't hate the new Viking unis, I still prefer the old ones. Good to see them once or twice a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even like the gray facemasks, and normally I HATE gray facemasks but they seem to work well.According to all of the official specs, they're using the same exact Purple for both the current unis and the throwbacks.Whether or not Reebok is actually following those specs remains to be seen.

They look bigger. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmejia Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 I'm not crazy about the new Vikings look, but their previous set did absolutely nothing for me. Admittedly, I'm from Texas and have zero connection to their tradition. They have an interesting color combo and identity and just think they have the potential for something pretty great. I've seen a few concepts on the other board that I thought were fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that is a spectacular uniform, no question about it. Unfortunately the throwbacks do not look all that much like these. At least the throwback they wore last year don't... it was the late 70's version... no number outlines, smaller helmet horn, etc. Plus, that classic uni design on the modern sleeveless uniform just makes me sad. What they need is an all new try... best of the old traditional elements, a few of the new changes. Look forward without jumping on the panel and pipping bandwagon. Oh, well... maybe I'm just dreaming.By the way, can we stop all the "purple has changed" nonsense, once and for all.You know what's changed?
