leggman01 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 The FIL world championships started last night with USA vs. Canada - Great pictures of the entire uniforms in action can be found hereA little disappointed in the team USA helmet...I love the matte grey helmet, just not for USA - I do like the contrast of the matte grey and the gold chrome cage, though...the team Canada helmet on the other hand is beautiful - matte black with red metal flake decals, red chrome cage, and the mohawk stripe is greatI'm torn about the team USA uniform...not sure I love the sleeveless look, but the team USA uniform is WAY better than the team Canada uniform, which is a mess...Broncos stripes on the side/front, Adidas stripes on the shoulders and shorts, mis-matched wordmark and number fonts...uglyhere are some links (here and here) to other international teams and their gear...i particularly like team Thailand's lookyour thoughts?

MJWalker45 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Agree on the USA helmet. There's no grey anywhere else so it looks out of place. I think if Nike made a sleeved version of that jersey they'd be a good look for any team. I wonder if they will have both options available during the tournament.

kewp80 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Uhhh... yeah... that grey helmet is horrible looking. The stripes down the middle make absolutely no sense to me. The stripes on the Canada helmet though... genius. Love how it looks like ice breaking into little maple leaves. Cardinals -- Rams -- Blues -- Tigers -- Liverpool Check out my music!

WizKid Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 My old high school teammate, Tim Mayorga (Tusculum College NCAA Div.2) is starting for Colombia. Their jersey and shorts were done by Encore Brand. https://m.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10204197866176589&id=1524983087&set=a.10200159354936332.191075.1524983087&source=48 GrizzlyBlack Designs, UDC Firebird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WizKid Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Im not a fan of the US' grey lids. Navy or white could have been fine. Also, Team Uganda looks spot on. I'm so glad that they were able to attend! #blaxerpride GrizzlyBlack Designs, UDC Firebird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leggman01 Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 link to view iroqouis nationals gear here - looks like nike used zero creativity, giving the iroquois the exact same jersey as usa in different colorsi do like the addition of the hiawatha wampum patternthe "sublimated" logo on the back of the cleats is really sweet, too...

leggman01 Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 scroll through the photos in this link to see tons of teams...japan's uniform is pretty cool, aside from the red numbers which were not very visible on tv - love the metallic decals on their helmets - not sure why they use so much blue, either, but the uniforms are very unique...no template therei absolutely love the simplicity of the new zealand look...can't wait to see them in their dark uniforms, and their helmet is a thing of beauty....matte black with the logo below in white...the russian uniform is interesting and the czech republic helmet is very solid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayMac Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Totally not uniform related but I had a class at Penn State with Drew Adams, the starting goalie. Pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinturner95 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 I think this tournament illustrates a major issue in lacrosse uniforms. Think about it. In football, Nike works outside the lines for team uniforms (Ducks Alamo Bowl, Mizzou Alt, Seahawks). Lacrosse uniforms consist of coloring the stitching of the uniform and that's it. The US and Iroquois teams wear mostly the same uniform in different colors. Same goes in college lacrosse. There isn't anything outside the lines. End of my rant. as you all were.

Viper Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 France has the worst unis in the tournament. The blue horizontal stripes make them look like a cross between prison uniforms and pajamas.Argentina's black-and-sky-blues, on the other hand, look really nice.Edit: During the Iroquois-Japan game, they pointed out that on the back of the Iroquois helmets is the seal appearing on Haudenosaunee passports - a reference to the passport issues that kept them out of the 2010 championships in the UK.

Well, there are lacrosse uniforms that go outside the lines. They're usually Warrior's when they aren't nuking their PR department through social media, and they're usually god awful.Like wizkid, one of my high school teammates is on Netherlands (Ryan Phillips if you wanna look him up) and they've more or less got the same uniforms as 2010, which isn't a bad thing. The roads kinda look like Princeton's 2006-08 set, while the homes utilize a bit of blue.
