wyopokes2 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 ...and just a mockup gift made by hgi graphics for Wayne Weaver stepping down. Since it's the same company who did Oregon's, I smell a Nike overhaul in the making! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I'd love my Packers to do that, actually. Looks like a sufficiently warm gold that it would be a good representation of their athletic gold color. Maybe make it a more satin finish, rather than the shiny mirror effect:Had the technology been available in 1994, I'm convinced Ron Wolf would have included it in his proposed overhaul.

GriffinM6 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I hope nike doesn't get inspired by seeing this. Just another reason the world is gonna blow up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHcreative Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I kinda like it... I'd change the facemask color, but other than that, I think it's pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Cunningham Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 If there was a black facemask on that, I wouldn't hate it.The one thing I didn't like about the Oregon Rose Bowl helmets (in a vacuum/the rest of the uniform not withstanding) was that they were like mirrors. I didn't mind how bright their reflectiveness was, but I prefer a finish more like Notre Dame's. I think this would be an excellent idea for the Jaguars if the shell were more like Notre Dame's helmets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOldRoman Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I'd love my Packers to do that, actually. Looks like a sufficiently warm gold that it would be a good representation of their athletic gold color. How would that be a good representation of the Packers' current colors? Their athletic gold color is a slightly orangish yellow. This is gold-gold. They aren't even close. It might work for the 49ers or Saints, but not for the Packers.As for this helmet, if they were going to produce it, they should have went through the trouble or producing decals with the gold portion of the cat's head clear so the gold in the log would match the helmet.

Gothamite Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 It's a fair bit warmer than Notre Dame's new gold helmets.I'd call those closer to Vegas Gold, and the Jags' a metallic representation closer to Athletic Gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That shade of gold is much closer to the Packers' gold than the gold that the Saints/49ers use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To clarify, I meant the treatment of the finish more so than the shade. I like that Notre Dame's (while still glossy and somewhat reflective in that sense) is somewhat mottled.

Lights Out Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 That would look SOOOOO good with the Saints' fleur-de-lis on it instead. Just doesn't work with the Jags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Make the facemask black and brighten the teal in the tongue, and I'm sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phutmasterflex Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 As a Jags fan, I say meh. I just don't see this making any sense ever since the Jags current unis don't even emphasize gold. Adding this much doesn't work. Team needs to keep the helmets as is and just bring some more gold to the unis at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 My grandmother bought me the NFL chrome helmet set for Christmas (one of my favorite gifts I ever recieved) about ten years ago. All of the gold and silver helmeted teams looked greatI predict this is the future of helmet design. We'll probably even see some standard colors in chrome before too longIt'll likely start in college and it'll be a solid decade before anyone tries it in the NFL. That's the way it goes with everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmd9 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I wonder how this would look as a black (possibly matte) helmet and gold facemask. Would be an interesting contrast of textures at least, but since the Jags really don't emphasize gold much anymore, I think a significant amount of gold on the helmet would really stick out. Don't really think this would ever see the field... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
