CDixonDesign Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I Like the inclusion of the silver as it ties back to the roots of the franchise and hopefully lead to the return of the silver pants. They have been far too blue heavy for years now. Also, I don't like the use of the navy, its just too dark. I wish they would use the modern logo with the original team colors.If you look closely enough at the "state of the franchise" logo you'll notice the Blue has been lightened to a more standard navy, and not so much of a dark "Bears" blue...

BrandMooreArt Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I heard the winged trim was on the pants, not the shoulder pads.Yes. Other Places Too.Love the uniforms. Great job. Can't wait.As we all know here, what looks good is subjective. What is your aesthetic taste: Classic, Modern, or Neo-Classic?why cant you just like things that are good?

Gothamite Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Just saw the new Seahawks logo on the NFL Network state of the franchise http://www.nfl.com/nflnetwork Looks like it is the grey at the bottom replacing the lighter blueUgh, that's awful.As much as I want them to use more silver (if they had just unveiled silver pants with the last design, I think more people would have voted for the silver helmet), you can't put silver next to white without them blending together.

Gray is lighter. Blue isn't as dark. "Seahawk" is at different angle with some curve.Another addition to the helmet you can't see from that angle.Just saw the new Seahawks logo on the NFL Network state of the franchise http://www.nfl.com/nflnetwork Looks like it is the grey at the bottom replacing the lighter blueUgh, that's awful.As much as I want them to use more silver (if they had just unveiled silver pants with the last design, I think more people would have voted for the silver helmet), you can't put silver next to white without them blending together.Stands out fine on the actual helmet.

Billy B Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I really hope it's not a stripe. The Seahawks have one of the few helmets with just a logo on it that looks better without stripes. Being that the logo is supposed to be wrapping around the helmet, it wouldn't make much sense to put a stripe right down the middle of it. There's also the possibility of putting some type of logo/design on the back center of the helmet which Nike has done a few times recently (Oregon and ASU come to mind).

Each seahawk is contoured to imply a connection, there's just a helmet design flaw in the way. If they don't rectify that with this update then it's a huge misstep. The break in the back stands out like a sore thumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The silver isn't strong enough to hold up with the navy (original royal and green were equal hues). And, if it's a metallic silver on the helmet, depending on the reflection, it may not even show up at all. Will have to see the full set to fully evaluate but from this screen shot, it's not an improvement and is a definite downgrade. But we'll see.

GFB Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I don't have a preference between royal and navy, but I do think that the helmet should be silver. 95% of the time a football helmet matches the pants, it will be a great look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxSteeler Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Those unis were so boring. Especially the roads. Some one mentioned white and silver blending in. Is true but somehow actually worse than all white. The current jerseys arent better with the monochromes but they aren't really worse either. Hopefully some sort or blend of the two will be the answer. Oh. Y the way no one has really mentioned that there are two blues in that screen camp from nfl network. There is a lighter blue for the top half and a darker blue for the bottom. I'm sure it can't be correct in that form. The beak is split horizontally with two blues, must be a network mistake but which blue is correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
