CS85 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Bad. I wish I could give a more thorough analysis and detailed justification, but that helmet sucks. Some random chicken feet or whatever the hell that is on a white helmet? Just awful. Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

AJM Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Something I would expect to see on a high school helmet...not a good look for VT.

illwauk Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I must be the only person who likes it... as I said in the other thread, it reminds me of the more whimsical and abstract logos from the 60s and 70s, and I think that's something that's largely missing from sports design nowadays (to its detriment).

shaydre1019 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I actually think its kinda cool and outside the norm. As plain as it is I think it also has a lot of character which is what makes it cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GFB Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Is it good? Naw. Do I appreciate it more than another digi-camo, "We support our troops" offering. Heck yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTernup Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 The actual tracks and helmet (I don't like white helmets and a white face mask together, the FM should be maroon) are pretty awful TBH, but for some reason I absolutely love that there are two separate decals on each side. I can't think of another helmet like that and because of that I really enjoy these helmets and look forward to seeing them.

Something about that era was great. a mash up of mid century modern design and, like you said, whimsy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ltjets21 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I think turkey feet used as a stripe with an actual turkey or the VT on both sides would look alot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the abstract thinking that went into it. If it's used sparingly, I think it fits in fine with their other uniform elements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
