4_tattoos Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Is it just me, or does Princeton's striped P look better than the Bengals striped B?How did that go unnoticed by the Bengals organization? Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LogoFan Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 The 80s and 90s uniforms were fine, although I did prefer the numbers on the sleeves and not the tiger.Their current set was a huge step backward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnclearInitial Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 The Esiason era look was decent and the Dillon era look was a bit better, but I hated those tiger stripes on the jerseys. They just didn't look like tiger stripes.The current jersey is so close to being good it's frustrating. They just need to take off the side panels and the white part of the pant stripe. On the aways and alternates, they should take off the orange yoke and make the sleeve orange with black tiger stripes. Make the tiger head the primary, with the full body tiger and the B as secondaries, and keep the current wordmark. The number font should be the same font as the wordmark, dropshadowed. They do this, and the bengals uniform becomes one of the 10 best uniforms in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can live with the tiger head or the leaping tiger, but everything else needs to go far away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFB Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Is it just me, or do the Bengals uniforms look better when on the TechFit template as opposed to the normal template?Normal:TechFit:The tiger stripes aren't crinkled and thus they have a much more organic feel to them.

Luigi Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 ....I like their orange alternates alot better .... with the white pants. Would like to see them as primary, and the black as alternates.The orange jerseys, they've got that Bengal Tiger look But those stripes on white or white stripes? Those have gotta go no matter what.and the white jersey siding needs to go, in favor of more orange with black stripes along the sides merging towards the pant stripingI like those numbers with the black shadow .... damn sharpnot only a good opinion, but a picture that sums up the bengals franchise, well done.

Jungle Jim Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I'm not sure what would possess someone to create the Bengals helmet shown in this eBay auction, but it got me to thinking. (The helmet is white with the tiger stripes on one side and the old block "BENGALS" logo on the other.) What if they played off the albino tiger theme and replaced all the orange in the uniform with white for an alternate uniform to be worn once or twice a year? Can one of you talented people create a concept? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

infrared41 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Personally, I think the Bengals should take the Florida State route. Have pretty simple jerseys, but have the collars and cuffs include the tiger pattern. Perfect. Great idea. I've always thought the Bengals helmets were pretty cool, but they've never gotten the rest of the look right. Â Â Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 That's why I thought their prior look was perfect - unique helmet paired with a solid uniform pattern. The genius was that wherever other teams would have striping - shoulder inserts and down the legs - the Bengals used their tiger stripes. It was at once innovative and traditional. It was genius. No wonder the Browns screwed it up. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spearhead Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I grew up a Houston Oilers fan and kept track of the Bengals for many years. I have never liked any of their uniform sets.Scrap the whole thing and start all over with something new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Maybe it's just me, but I think by far and away the biggest problem with the Bengals set is white pants with colored jerseys. The way I see it, they have a black and orange helmet with no white. If they wear black jerseys, they should wear orange pants. With orange jerseys, they should wear black pants. On the road, I would also wear black pants. I think this alone would help out the color balance a lot and make the Bengals look much better.
