IceCap Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 What isn't clear from the photos we've seen, but I've been able to verify, is the TV number trim. They ARE different than the front and back numbers (similar to Seattle's design).Black jerseys: White numbers with teal trim.White jerseys: Teal numbers with Black trim.Teal jerseys: Black numbers with White trim.Also - the official helmet graphics look better than what we're seeing in these photos. Not sure that's a good thing. I'd rather have it be vice versa.Fantastic. Mismatching numbers. Truly the cherry atop this crap sundae.

TSHARE18 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 The helmet looks different in almost every picNot Bad hereHigher viewIt looks like the helmet is more gold then black. Maybe 60/40 gold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 It looks like the helmet is more gold then black. Maybe 60/40 gold?I'll post some official helmet graphics when it's "safe", but the gradient in the helmet graphics is more like 60/40 Black to Gold.They look MUCH better there.Maybe they can adjust the finish? Is it too late? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old School Fool Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 It actually looks passable in those last two photos. I'm fearing that the helmets will look different from player to player, which will no doubt become extremely annoying. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe these were just pushed out for the event today. Im really curious to see the graphic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Biff from the Future Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 The top of the uniform by the collar? Is that see through? it looks like its wearing a BRA???other than that, I am probably the only one who likes the helmet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LogoFan Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I absolutely HATE the sheer part of the jersey shoulders. Makes me think of a woman's blouse...and that pic of him sitting there with what appears to be tights under the pants doesn't help. And I say this as someone who likes the overall look of the new unis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFloridianLogoMan Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Is it wrong of me that I'm want to find the positives about this uniform set, then wait until they're on the field to truly determine whether I like them or not?? Maybe I'm being a homer, but as a uniform lover also, I'm going to focus on the positives with these unis going forward because I can't change the negatives. And the negatives, I'll allow them to grow on me over time. First, I LOVE the jerseys. They turned out better than I could have hoped for, from the use of teal (more than we had hoped for), to the patch over the upper left chest, to the tri-colored numerals and font (I love the font, and how it borrows elements from traditional block while still looking unique). They look FAR better than the last ones did.Second, the pants are STILL consistent stripe wise. It was the only positive from the last set, and is what drove me crazy with the pants from 2004-2008, with the white and black pants looking different. Lastly,....................the gold of the helmet, and the teal of the shoulder stripes contrast very well IMHO on the black home jersey, of course, when viewed from the back. I'm not sure how this kind of scenario would look on the white with black shoulders, but we'll get a look at that soon enough.Now, if I was in charge of this and I HAD to have the bi-color gradient helmet, I would've went with teal; given how much teal there is in the uniforms, it would've connected better IMHO. But, I'm going to keep focusing on this and let this set grow on me over time, especially when the Jags finally take the field in these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash61 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 My 50-year-old mom: "I like the helmet. It's cool that it's half-and-half. I think it looks better than if it were completely black or gold."

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

Lee Noire Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Did Nike give any explaination for the shoulder design? I can't wrap my head around that aspect of the jerseys. It'd be great for a team called the tigers but not the Jags. The only thing that helps me make any sense of it is if I view them as claw/scratch marks. The gold on the collar helps that argument but I feel like im reaching. At least Oregon's feathers make sense, these have me scratching my head if they aren't claw/scratch marks.

29texan Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Jerseys:Helmets:Seriously though: you pair this uniform set with the previous-generation Black/Teal Flake helmet, at that's a solid Top 10 NFL look.My thoughts exactly. Don't like the helmet, but everything else works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chromatic Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 What I personally would change:-Solid, one colour matte black helmet.-Remove the shiny "chrome" material-Gold piping between shoulder sections on black and teal jerseys, teal piping on the white.-'Jags' logo taken from the chest and put on the expansive space beneath the nike logo-Teal socks for teal jerseyOverall I think this look actually has a great deal of potential.
