TheOldRoman Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Disagree. The Raiders' road uniforms are VERY touchable. There's really no reason why they shouldn't be wearing these full-time on the road:And the Chiefs look bland and outdated, IMO.I disagree with you. Although I like the look of those Raiders' unis, what they wear now is better and more balanced. When their primary color is black, it doesn't make sense to only have black in a few stripes and a number outline. Oh,and the Chiefs' unis are great and not dated.

BBTV Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I could go both ways with that. You could argue that there's an implied black border around the silver numbers on their home uniform, and that having silver numbers with a black outline on the road is therefore perfectly consistent. You could also argue that the black numbers on the road at least incorporate their primary (or at least home-jersey) color more.Maybe a compromise would be black numbers with a thicker silver border than what they have now? So basically the inverse of the image above. "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

DeFrank Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Do you think the NFL would ever allow a silver away jersey? Because honestly, that would be an amazing look. concepts: washington football (2017) ... nfl (2013) ... yikes potd 10/20/12 origin story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chawls Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I hope so - I've been advocating that the Packers use compression shirts to bring back proper stripes for several years now.Or better yet, make the jersey sleeves and shoulders out of the compression material and have the sleeves reach mid-bicep. Then enforce rules against jersey alteration.Exactly. If you put the stripes on a separate compression garment, not everyone will wear them, and you'll end up with a bigger problem than what you already have.The stripes have to be on the actual jersey.Nike, PLEASE read the bolded statements.

Gothamite Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I would much rather have some players wearing striped compression shirts and some not than the mismatch we have now with some players cutting off the stripes. I'd also rather have compression sleeves on some if it allowed teams to keep their traditional pattern rather than butchering it. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

Gothamite Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 It was terribly ugly when the Patriots tried it, would be even worse in Oakland paired with a silver helmet AND silver pants.

shaydre1019 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I think the striped undershirts could definitely work. If they could Mandate long socks I dont see why they can't do the same with 3/4 sleeves. And plus if some players decide not to wear the sleeves it can't look much worse than what we have now.... Now with that being said inthink bikes templates are pretty stripe friendly especially as opposed too the reebok/tech fit that some teams are currently using Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmccarthy27 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Question that I have with this Nike thing. I think the current game on field jerseys are made by another company and they just have the Reebok logo slapped on them. Will this be the case with the NFL next year or is Nike making the on field jerseys too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will this be the case with the NFL next year or is Nike making the on field jerseys too?I'm pretty sure that nike contracts out 100% of its manufacturing to 3rd parties...so the question may be around are they planning to use the same vendors and templates as reebok?..I'm pretty sure that when reebok went exclusive all they kept production as is and changed the logo patches to reebok.

hawk36 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 That jersey is a work of art.Either decrease the outline on the body or increase the outline on the shoulder. With a clean, simple, jersey design (which I love), little design mistakes are magnified. Design Hovie Studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are all made in the USA.Also gullible isn't in the dictionary!"Made in the USA" Doesn't = Made in the USA ... oddly enough things made in Macau are labeled "Made in the USA". You need to go online and find out if it's TRULLY "Made in the USA" or if it's only labeled as "Made in the USA" due to Free Trade, etc. People buy things that say "Made in the USA" and fat cat capitalist politicians have sold that label to the lowest bidder.
