thebluefood Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I do like that helmet but... 1.) A lot of bad juju associated with it. We wore those helmets during our worst seasons. 2.) The helmet is too dark. It almost looks like something Virginia Tech would wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HogNose Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) MIami, Jacksonville and Minnesota. Word on the Vikings is the may be moving to a throwback/fauxback full time and getting rid of all those stupid lines and piping. Minnesota should put their primary logo on the helmet,,,, New Dolphin logo?.....not official yet: http://www.thephinsider.com/2012/12/26/3804672/miami-dolphins-new-logo-leaked-2013-uniforms Edited January 15, 2013 by HogNose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Slamming Butcher Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I wish we declined the awful Nike Flywire collar. Our white jerseys look terrible with that neck role look. I agree...I hope we lose that this upcoming season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xavmit Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Has anyone heard of new uniforms and a re-branding of the team for the RGIII era. Kind of like what the Falcons did for the Vick era. Markthehomer is a VP at Nike and usually has the inside track on these things. Mark the Homer works for Nike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) I like the Vikings traditional uniforms. I've always hated the wild piping on the new ones. Not sure if I like the new Dolphins helmet. Looks a little off to me. Edited January 30, 2013 by pjfootballer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachboy757 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) I like the new Dolphins new logo and I always liked their aqua blue or teal green(since we all see colors different) pants with the white top uniforms. I notice they hardly wear those anymore. Edited January 15, 2013 by beachboy757 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markthehomer is a VP at Nike and usually has the inside track on these things. It should be a idea in serious consideration because our current uni combo are confusingly outdated and fugly. Maybe it's time to move on. Hopefully we ditch the banana pants. Please go back to the burgundy pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sizzla3000 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I think a uniform change and re-branding would be the way to go. I love the Redskins name and logo but they aren't exactly PC. If we went back to a variation of the Spear Logo and went by the Skins. That would probably keep the PC police happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if I like the new Dolphins helmet. Looks a little off to me.Yeah, I don't see why the Vikings should ditch the horn on the helmet. Looks great. And I also don't like the piping on their new uniforms. Just looks too busy for me. I like the darker throwbacks they sometimes wear. Those are decent.Yeah, something seems missing from the Dolphins helmet. I know the reason they re-designed it was to get rid of the dolphin wearing the helmet. But...I dunno.

I don't like the double piped White / Burgundy pants either. Very dated looking. The triple piped Gold pants are better, so I'd like to see them match that with the Burgundy pants (which will return in 2013). They should go ahead and fix the jersey sleeve too. No need for a double stripe there. Every one but Kirk Cousins wears their jersey sleeves tight. They should go back to a more simple look here, like they did the early / mid 60's. Similar to the Raiders and Giants home jerseys. No ugly piping / striping, just clean and classic. If they must keep a stripe on the sleeve, they should just do a single gold stripe.

~*JurgyFan*~ Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Now that the Redskins are on the verge of greatness for years to come, I thought a new look might be appropriate. I designed a new uniform, taking elements of the traditional and some new bits. And i used burgundy and gold; not yellow, not mustard, not off-coffee...GOLD!!

Normally not a fan of gold helmets, but those are pulled off nicely. Seriously, send those pictures to the Nike or Snyder. These are loud. Louder than even the Seahawks redesign. Not a bad premise, but the piping and the feather elements really don't work for me, especially in tandem with our current logo on the side of the helmet. Really do like the color scheme ideas, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That gold helmet resembles Notre Dame's newest golden dome helmet. If we brought that look to the NFL, I wouldn't be mad. Those are dope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really do like the color scheme ideas, however. The reason I like his idea is because it looks more appropriate with the theme of our team. To me, it isn't over done looking. Piping makes sense. The use of feather works for me because Native Americans wore feathers. We are the Redskins. If we have to get a new look, looking more tribal makes sense.

Theismann07 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 At first I was inclined to say no way to that redesign, but after looking at it some more it's not too bad I guess. I think there is a little too much going on with the helmet and much prefer the Indian head logo without the feather design. As much as it might grow on me, I'm still a sucker for our traditional look and think we should keep it. Not bad though for a one-off type thing.

HogNose Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Whatcha think? Sorry, good effort coming up with that, etc but it's just too busy and loud. My greatest worry with the uniforms is that we get a version of what Seattle has now. I would be happy with the uniform in your sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know which is worse, the gold helmet, or the feather on the sock.I'm all for a slight makeover to our uniforms, but come on, those are atrocious.

TD_washingtonredskins Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 The colors are perfect and the inverse helmet/logo idea (gold helmet with burgundy border for our logo) is pretty nice. My preference would be to ditch the triangle patterns on the sleeves and pants and probably ditch the feathers. If anything, replace the triangle stripes on the pants with a single feather down each side and go with subdued or no sleeve stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
