TBGKon Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Through my GM and my DM at the sporting goods store I work at, they had a conversation through Nike about the NFL uniforms for 2012 and one of the Nike reps confirmed that the jersey cost for the replicas will in fact be at a MSRP of $100.00.Nothing about the Premier styles or the Authentics but I assume the costs will increase on those as wellWTF, that is such a joke. Hard to believe 10 years ago you could get a replica for around $45 bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drdougfresh Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Well, you have to consider the source: "I know a guy who knows a guy who knows THE guy", and also UniWatch. That being said, there's no harm in speculating. It's actually fun with some of these teams. I, for one, hope that Nike leaves the Lions alone, as well as some of the other classical looks (Bears, Packers, Raiders, etc.). But there will be some teams that Nike takes a liking to, and I think the most obvious is the Seahawks. I can see some pretty cool things coming from that color palette. For a Nike fan such as myself, this will probably be one of the coolest 'overhauls' I can imagine. Looking forward to actual photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GriffinM6 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 That's rediculous. With this economy, they need to make the jersey prices lower. Nike already makes enough money, and just wants to get richer. Douche bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aawagner011 Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 That's rediculous. With this economy, they need to make the jersey prices lower. Nike already makes enough money, and just wants to get richer. Douche bags.As much as I'd love to be able to buy a Falcons jersey for less than $80 or $90, you have to realize a few things. First off, jerseys are not necessity items, they're luxury items. No one "needs" or has a right to own a jersey. Secondly, everything about the NFL is a business. The tickets they sell, the concessions fans buy, the jerseys we wear, the TV rights they award to stations- all done with one purpose in mind: increasing revenue and earning a profit. The NFL is entitled to price its products however it pleases. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the NFL and always watch the Falcons, but it's always going to be a business. Nike is a business, the NFL is a business. That's just the way it is, and because you (not specifically you) or anyone else wants a jersey doesn't mean you have a right to one cheap. The NFL knows what it is doing. It's simply supply and demand. They're obviously making a killing, otherwise they'd be selling them at $20 to entice buyers.

DustDevil61 Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 The teams that I see most likely getting major changes to their looks (not necessarily an overhaul) are Seattle, Tennessee, Minnesota, Carolina, St. Louis, and possibly Tampa Bay. The Titans can use more red and less navy or the Bucs make their pewter "cooler" (less brownish and more blueish).I can see tweaks coming to Miami, Cincinnati, Arizona, Pittsburgh, and possibly Baltimore and/or Dallas. Maybe the Bengals' white sides on their home and orange alts. finally get filled in, or the Ravens go with a purple-flaked helmet, like the Jaguars. We can hope, but maybe the Cowboys finally get their white and navy uniforms properly coordinated.That said, however, I sure hope replicas don't shoot up to $100; that makes fakes all the more attractive for the average schmo.

tohasbo Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I really hope the replicas are not that much. I would like to see them at around $55. That would be much cheaper for me to get because the prices of the jerseys have gotten insane to the point where I have not purchased one in over 3 years.

Hard to believe 10 years ago you could get a replica for around $45 bucks.Keep in mind Nike just bought the rights to produce half the stuff Reebok was producing for twice the price of what Reebok was paying, so they're going to have to make up cash somehow, whether it's on price per unit or number of units sold.

henburg Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Being a Titan's fan, I actually really wouldn't mind Nike giving them a very modern look. Something in Oilers colors would have a lot of potential I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysox Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I think the Titans should move on from the scheme, and go with Yellow-Navy and make that Nashville's colors. @MichaelDanger19Â | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
