Joshawaggie Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 what? screenprint, come on now. please no grey facemask, the blue looks sooo good. @josh_j12 CFA- Fargo Bobcats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 I like the darker blue and the screen print, and the socks if they are new. I don't like the grey mask at all, and there should be two blue helmet stripes. JUSTIN STRIEBEL | PORTFOLIO | RESUME | CONTACT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sterling84 Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 I'm pretty sure the one on the right is a replica....that might explain the screenprint. The Official Cheese-Filled Snack of NASCAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 I'm pretty sure the one on the right is a replica....that might explain the screenprint. I was thinking the same thing after I posted. Number 50 appears to have an authentic with sewn on numbers. JUSTIN STRIEBEL | PORTFOLIO | RESUME | CONTACT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewG70 Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Couple things:1. It's not exactly clear from the photo, but it also appears the Colts are going with just one single stripe down the sides of the pants.2. It would have been much better of they wore the style of numbers they wore during the 1960's, complete with serifs at the ends of the 2, 3, 5, 6 and 9.Andrew The (unofficial) NHL Uniform DatabaseThe WHA Uniform Database Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chazberg Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 OK guys, if any of you can honestly tell a difference with that blue, tell me, because I think it looks exactly the same. I love the striped socks and I can live with the grey facemask and black shoes, so overall I like this change. Single pants stripe doesn't sound like it would look as good though. And STL fanatic, please get it through your head that they are never gonna go to a double stripe on the helmet, it is traditional and not everything has to be perfectly consitent. charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian in Boston Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 The new "darker" Blue is fine. Leave the Grey facemasks to the 1950s, the Black shoes to the referees and the striped socks to Goodwill.Overall... ugh!Brian in Boston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STL FANATIC Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 I can see a difference in the blue.I really don't think the pants only have one stripe. The second one is wrapped around.The grey mask needs to be blue, and regardless of tradition, they need to make the helmet striping consistant.

Waffles Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Call me crazy, but I like the gray facemasks [ducking flying objects]. I think they're an improvement over the blue, I just can't really articulate why beyond it's just a little aesthetic thing. And the socks are nice, too.What I don't like are the black shoes. Yeah, it was Unitas' thing, but it just doesn't look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stampman Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 The socks stripes are different--but it's pretty much the same... Comic Sans walks into a bar, and the bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve your type here." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtrich11 Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 Those maroons at Reebok still don't have the shoulder stripes going around. They did it for the rams and Panthers. It drives me nuts. Looks so bad. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesCraven Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 A few quick notes on the Colts' new/old unis:At least our boy Rupert is out of the tie-dye for this week.Finally, Peyton Manning gets his wish: to wear black hi-tops in honor of Johnny Unitas.And the team will be ready for that throwback game on Thanksgiving at Detroit. "I better go take a long walk off a short pier or something."Some people on this bolard have told me to do just that.My "Ron Mexico" alias is "Jon Tobago".

gregchait Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 lol - who is that dude in the Manning jersey?perhaps this comment is off topic, because it's not part of "this" change, but I really really REALLY can't stand the way the vertical shoulder stripes are cut off on their uni's now. It looks retarded... why?Indianapolis Colts - still my most favorite uniform in sports.grc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
