BBM Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 So then... not the first time this season It does look much better than the black pants though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harmening Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 When they wear the road unis, I like the gold pants. I know I'm in the minority, but I love their home unis with the black pants. To me, there's something about the monos paired with the beautiful gold helmet that make the gold numbers stand out. It catches my eye so much more than when they wear the gold pants.

They don't match the helmets, number, or even collar. They are so light that they almost look champagne colored instead of gold. Most importantly, the stripes don't match the helmet stripes. Put them gold pants that match the helmet, and it will look great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAVALIER Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Black pant are filth...love the gold....hate the bears.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Falcon Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Last night was the 5th time they wore gold pants this year: the first three games, at Carolina, and at Chicago. I wouldn't mind the black pants so much if they at least had a stripe on them...one that matched the gold on the helmet, for a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoDawgs08 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I've actually started to dig the black pants look, on the road and at home. What I hated was when they wore the white on black at home?!?!?!They need more detail on the uniform though, I think some old school style stripes on the sleeves and pants would be great...just with the new lighter gold.

Unless the air conditioning conked out or something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennisbergan Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I would have to think, this will be the last year for this mis-matched uniform set.Its time for some new duds, in NO.My suggestion is the following:Black jersey, with OLD gold number (outlined in white). Unique font; instead of the standard that has been used. Saint logo, on upper chest. Thin gold stripe, around sleeve cuff, with number on sleeve.White jersey, with black number (outlined in old gold). Same as above; except black stripe on sleeve cuff.Old gold alt jersey, with black number (outlined in white). Same as above, except for black stripe around sleeve cuff.New Old gold pants, with very thin black stripe. New black pants, with very thin old gold stripe.Helmet will become old gold, but striping changes to thin black stripe (same as on sleeve cuff and pants). Same logo. And, finally, the golds will match, from helmet to jersey to pants. The old gold, is a different shade of gold, then they currently wear and is the color gold, that Georgia Tech uses, in their uniform set now. That would make the Saints, unique, to the Rams and 49ers, who both currently use similar golds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
