BRice16 Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 The aTm isn't beveled on the helmet because TexAgs would have a meltdown of catastrophic proportions if it was.If that's the case then the bevel should have been dropped all together. It's the one thing holding back an otherwise great set.A&M fans have been begging for that since Nike introduced it. Yet, even with Adidas, it continues.

evanmaldonado Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 I think the bevel makes the set. It looks absolutely fantastic. What's ruining the uniform for me is the undershirt. Extending the stripes on them just has never worked, and I don't understand why you'd try to make a non-mandatory piece of gear part of the jersey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extending the stripes on them just has never worked, and I don't understand why you'd try to make a non-mandatory piece of gear part of the jerseyI'm not sure that's what they're trying to do. I bet we'll still see plenty of sleeveless guys wearing just the jersey. I think it is just a way of continuing the double stripe visual for those who choose to wear the undershirt. That way, regardless of whether you wear just the jersey or the jersey with the shirt, you'll see the full stripe running the length of the player's sleeves for his individual garments he is wearing.

That's because while some players would have the striped sleeves, others wouldn't. It relegated the jersey design to an accessory that was up to the player whether he wanted to wear it or not. With this, every player will look the same, with the same two vertical stripes. The only thing that differs is the length of his stripes, depending on his sleeve preferences. I think that is a very good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joegalvan Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 i dig the TAMU set. im sure lots of folks will ditch the striped undershirts. just like with nike schools, lots of players will likely go sans-sleeves or solid colors. wouldnt be surprised if the socks were gone too, replaced with the traditional solid whites.i always wonder how much more hate a new set would get if it had swooshes on it. but i digress...

CrazyAnna Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Love the Aggies' set.

Most posters here don't blindly hate everything Nike does. Nike can, and has, produce(d) some really nice uniform sets. It's the trends Nike pushes that people take issue with.If these new A&M uniforms were Nike-produced most everyone would be praising them for resisting the urge to introduce multiple helmets and three shades of grey.

Kevin W. Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 If Nike had made those uniforms, I'd actually be surprised if gray was missing since there's at least some recent precedent for A&M wearing some gray.Overall, though, it's a good design and would be no matter what manufacturer logo is on it.

logo-maker Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Has anyone noticed that the new Texas A&M set has a v-neck collar and not the weird boxy collar the Adidas tech fit jerseys have used this past season? Looks a whole lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
