Gary Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I love the new uniforms, but hate, hate, hate the new logo, looks like clip art to me. Would have loved if they went back to the old copper helmets with the current logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 The home jerseys are excellent... the road jerseys have too much teal in comparison. Regardless, Russell actually made a good uniform for once. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish it were copper instead of teal, but I can deal with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missouri tigers Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Both of the helmets could use a little more contrast between the logo and helmet color, but overall it looks pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSox44 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I don't hate the uniforms or the black helmet, but that orange helmet reminds me of vomit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henburg Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 This is actually a pretty nice set other than the inconsistencies in color usage. Also, am I the only one that thinks that the sleeves look like fishnets more than snakeskin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo_prankster Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I prefer the R-Snake logo be on both sides of both helmets. The Fictional Story of Austus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubsFanBudMan Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 The new AFL is really making odd choices. Just throwing away a lot of the established branding with random, inferior logos. The copper helmet's logo ruins an otherwise surprisingly solid effort for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OchentaYOcho88 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I'm just happy to see the copper lids back. Are they just going to wear the black helmets away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiddySicks Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 The logos should be reversed (and just dump the black lid altogether, really), but the copper helmet is back so no matter what this is an upgrade IMO.Doesn't it seem strange to everyone else that a team in a league that's already ceased operations once is wasting money on two sets of helmets? Maybe the Rattlers can afford it, but why even bother? On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

ManCalledAmp Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 That's a revised R-Snake, isn't it? R looks less defined, snake looks more detailed. If that's the case, they should have left it at that. The generic logo on the copper lid is unnecessary.The uniforms aren't bad, and I don't even mind the road being more teal-heavy. I'd like to see more teal on the home set, actually. I'm not a fan of the copper numbers, either...a bit muddled. The snake-skin is a cool touch, though the road uni overall could use a touch more copper to balance out.I also don't see why they need two helmets. If the copper one had the R-Snake, I'd prefer it for both. And is it just me or does the helmet copper not match the sleeve copper?All in all, it's a step in the right direction, but a step while the legs were bound by previous re-hashes, resulting in a tumble to the ground, and a nasty skinned nose. Overall: C- Go Gators. Go Blue Raiders. Go Commodores. Go USC Trojans.Preds & Avs. Braves, Rays, & Dodgers. Titans, Colts, Broncos, Cardinals. Grizzlies. 14ers, Jam. Team Spirit + Laziness = Yay.

rtrich11 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Pictures have been released for the new 2012 Arizona Rattlers home and away helmets, plus the new uniforms.The home and aways have the same elements, but the colors make them seem like they are from different teams. The away needs copper sleeves to remedy that.The helmets- I don't mind the new logos at all, but they could use more contrast against the shell color. The designs will be invisible from 20 feet away. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJM Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Love to see a return to a copper helmet...mixed feelings on the logos, but like them both for the most part.One thing I can't ignore is the "copper" on the black helmet does not match that of that actual copper helmet on the right.

Captain Poncho Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 The home and road helmet effect really serves to make the team identity far less succinct. It's very much like two different teams.I'm not saying the home and road helmet concept is a bad one at its core, but this particular one doesn't seem to work at all.
