andrewharrington Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Could this end up being a bigger problem with the Nike uniforms than the Sweat-Gut?Say hello to Sweat-Butt:All I can say is, at least they doubled up the part that covers the ass crack. Some of the Saints linemen's pants were a strange hybrid color of brown, grey and gold by the end of the game.

4_tattoos Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 During the Redskins/Saints game, it appeared most of the Redskins players wore team colored shoes. Would have looked much better with the plain stripless socks. The striped socks were noticable brighter than the burgundy on the shoes and jerseys.

This is odd because he was shown with super fancy Adidas Redskins colored cleats in promo shots, and we have seen team color Under Armor cleats.

Crash Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I thought the team-color shoes the Redskins were wearing looked great. Of course, they were really noticeable in those colors. I'm guessing that they'll be much less noticeable on other teams who have more muted colors, or, like the Tampa Bay/Carolina game right now, aren't playing in sunlight.EDIT: Re: Sweatbutt - I am such a very, very big fan of the pewter pants right now. I was anyway, but they appear to also avoid the sweatbutt problem. Which is very good right now, since every last player on the field is completely soaked.

daschuck77 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Looks like there are combinations of pants out there for Denver. Manning is wearing the extended belt loop that obstructs the pant stripe and there are assorted lineman and wide recievers that do not have it and their pants stripe is totally exposed. Poor continuity Nike. Sloppy. And the sweaty pants... Please visit: www.SabresNotSlugs.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manning is wearing the extended belt loop that obstructs the pant stripe and there are assorted lineman and wide recievers that do not have it and their pants stripe is totally exposed. I don't think that's an official variant so much as the compotents being fixed (belt loop over the hip, stripe down the side of the leg) and linemen with much bigger waistbands have as a consequence extra material between the two components where a relatively slender player does not.

Even smaller players are not using it. Please visit: www.SabresNotSlugs.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennisbergan Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I thought the team-color shoes the Redskins were wearing looked great. Yes, they looked dope. Nothing cooler then seeing players in yellow shoes.I thought Jacksonville's teal shoes were really strong too. Really makes you look tough.Some of these teams look amazingly lame, with this "team shoe" concept. Especially when only half of the team are matching. What a great decision by the NFL and Nike!!! Maybe next year, we can have team colored jocks as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dennisbergan Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Mr. Lukas weighs in today on the "team shoe" fiasco..."Some of them are wretched (I’m sure you can guess which ones I slot under that heading), but I think some of them look fine, or even better than fine — at least when viewed in a vacuum. The problem is that now each team has a total crazy quilt of footwear colors. You’ve got one guy wearing black, the next guy wearing red, and the next guy wearing gold — it’s a mess."Amen, brother. A total rec-league, individualistic, unprofessional mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
