andrewharrington Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Wow, Under Armour actually came up with a new idea that actually looks good.It's actually a very old idea, but I'm very glad they brought it back. I've been clamoring for this for years. I still don't have a website, but I have a dribbble now! http://dribbble.com/andyharry [The postings on this site are my own and do not necessarily represent the position, strategy or opinions of adidas and/or its brands.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimEOBrien Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 As a long time NU fan, these are growing on me. Still not sold on them yet, but there is potential (things that need to be fixed: NO TRAMP STAMP!, stripe all the way around jersey, only purple pants on the road, no purple pants with the purple jersey...).But KUDOS to UA for finally getting compression sleeve stripes to connect at the seam! Because this:Looks goddamn ridiculous. How hard could it possibly be to have stripes line up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those cleverly combine the classic look/history with the future of American football style. Well done, UA. The Pike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbannon92 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 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.+1 Nike + CFL 2015 | 2015-16 NBA Concepts | Complete College Football Redesign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CubsFanBudMan Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 They've been using that font for at least a couple of years now, particularly on the "Chicago's Big Ten team" ads/billboards. It might have made an appearance on the basketball baseline starting last year, too. I was going to say the end zones, too, but I'm not sure about that. They lost the script Wilcats, but I believe they went to a basic sans-serif. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spottedbadger Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I know it's really hard to decipher in a promo picture, but is that a pearl finish on the helmet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshawaggie Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Fantastic way of bringing old back with the new. Excited these how they look in action. @josh_j12 CFA- Fargo Bobcats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawk36 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I know it's really hard to decipher in a promo picture, but is that a pearl finish on the helmet?Not sure about the stripe through the body of the jersey but love the use of it on the undershirt. Would love to see a throwback done like this using the full sleeves that were common in the 40s-50s (?). Design Hovie Studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSU151 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Whatever happened to the N-Cat? Doesn't he get to be on there or anywhere?HE GONE! [/HawkVoice]Kind of a shame. The N-cat was a big part of the 1995 unis. You'd think they'd keep it around somehow.Also, would love to see a black alternate with white-purple-white striping. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd assume purple, but wouldn't the dark on dark violate the laws of design? Why you make fun of me? I make concept for Auburn champions and you make fun of me.
