oldschoolvikings Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Stripes on the compression sleeves.What a great idea. Indeed. Now comes the real question... what do the replica versions look like? Do they have longer sleeves with stripes, shorter sleeves with no stripes (compression sleeves sold seperately, maybe?) or do they somehow try to fake the two sleeve look on one garmet?IF they can pull off the replica question, and IF 100% of the players wear the sleeves on field, then I'm all in on this idea. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just make it look the same as all the other replicas. And I really hope the while team wears the sleeves. It will be a great answer to the shrinking sleeve problem if they can but will look pretty bad if they don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockey week Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I was just thinking that they need to do something like this, and I thought, "what if they put the stripe across the bottom of the jersey? Nah, that'd be too much like a hockey jersey" so they put it across the middle. i know it's not a first with those old Giants jerseys, but is this a first for the modern era? A trend that should continue? I'll respect any opinion that you can defend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STL FANATIC Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Posted this in the other thread...I almost hate to give UA or NU credit, but they did a good job on the Northwestern unis. I kinda really like them. Unfortunately, most players won't actually wear those compression sleeves, so the nice idea of throwing back to longer sleeves with real stripes will get lost. But it looks nice on paper, and the center stripe is a cool idea that's unique to football (at this time).

Sport Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 If anyone should wear Northwestern stripes, it's Northwestern. I like them and if they stick with it long enough (I doubt they will) this could become their defining look like Michigan's winged helmet.The only part I don't like, is that it says Northwestern above the numbers. The Northwestern stripes should be identifying enough that you don't have to spell out who's wearing the jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuordr Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 How to improve this look:1. Make the stripe go all the way around the jersey. 2. Add vague striping to the pants and the helmet. 3. Update the logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS85 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Do I like the idea? Yep. Do I hate that these compression sleeves are becoming fashionably mandatory? Oh yes.

Update the logo.My thoughts as well...like the look but wish the stripe went all the way around.

rvrdgsfn Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I like them, a classic look that's gone modern. Well done UA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeFrank Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Great job. If the stripes went all the way around and there were stripes on the pants and helmet, this would be a fantastic set. concepts: washington football (2017) ... nfl (2013) ... yikes potd 10/20/12 origin story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burgundy Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I like Northwestern Stripes, but these look like rugby sweaters. Pfft.That's kinda the point. Old football jerseys were very similar to rugby sweaters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Wow, Under Armour actually came up with a new idea that actually looks good. I'm pleasantly amazed, this is an awesome look. Like AJM & nuodr, my only complaint is that the chest stripe doesn't go all the way around, but other than that...I like it. Hopefully the players are encouraged to wear the undershirts as much as possible, because this has the potential to be a real game-changer when it comes to football uniform design. I love this.

henburg Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Wow! UA really nailed these! I am glad that they didn't include stripes on the helmet or pants, that would have been overkill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schlim Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Its funny to think there was probably some guy/girl at the photoshoot who was spraying down the model so they'd achieve the gritty, sweaty look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
