TheOldRoman Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 That Minnesota uni is terrible. Aside from not being in team colors, the connecting M's is something which is interesting in theory but doesn't work in practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I've never understood why they chose to put the M's right next to each other on the chest so it reads as M M. Would've gotten the same effect with the M's on the sleeves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I cannot think of any other ApexOne (Apex1?) attrocities aside from MN and IA and the one time Cowboys/Niners Wisconsin uniform. Did they get creative with anyone else?By the way, I know we struggled to find a decent picture of the Wisconsin one-off, but here's one. I guess it was Starter: Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

tBBP Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 EDIT: It's a bit of a '90s 49ers modernization of the Steelers... sort of:Ah...Tavian Banks. I remember him. The good ole' days, watching him and Tim Dwight darting around those fields like some wild mice. Speedy little bastards, especially Dwight. Alright...just what is up with #13 there? *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kajeet Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 Because of the Nike and ever shrinking jersey templates, its time to change the Steelers sleeve stripes.They should even consider moving the stripes up like Iowa... and maybe putting a black swoosh in the middle. I assume the Steelers can't move their stripes up like Iowa because of where the swoosh must be placed on NFL uniformsAs much as i hate Iowa, they've kept that look going a lot better than the steelers have.Part of it is because they don't need to worry about putting the Nike logo on the sleeveCan't they just put the swoosh in the stripes?Other teams have done that. Pittsburgh did that when they wore Starter. So it can be done now.I don't think a company (especially Nike) would want their logo to 'blend' in with a part of the uniform. They want their logo to stand out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would've gotten the same effect with the M's on the sleeves.They were "throwback" uniforms for college football's 125th anniversary. They both stayed for 2 years before being replaced.

sorcerer77 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 By the way, I know we struggled to find a decent picture of the Wisconsin one-off, but here's one. I guess it was Starter:Good find.That pic doesn't show off the fantastic numbers to their full effect:I kind of liked this one off jersey as well, but they were linked to the bad loss sustained by Wisconsin while wearing them. It's yet another case, whether short term or long term, of bad timing of a logo or uniform. Another example was the time Nebraska went solid red in a big game versus Oklahoma, but lost. Conversely, a logo or uniform can be elevated in the minds of some because of the success during a specific period of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Hmm never noticed how the W's are flipped on the shoulders. They should both be moving forward like it is on the helmets. Okay, there's one thing wrong with those wisconsin uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejblee Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 As a Falcons fan, I can't say how sick of these uniforms I am. They look so incredibly dated. We need to get rid of this leftover reebok nonsense and start over. Falcons. UGA. Hawks. Braves. Tottenham Hotspur. Atlanta United Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imawalkingcorpse Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 This has run its course. ESPECIALLY the all white ones. I hate the new Buccaneers logo. Pewter was boring in 97, even more boring now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 White pants, I agree with you. But I think the rest of the Bucs' set has aged pretty well. Good move to avoid the silly custom numbers, which seem to age a uniform quickly. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.
