jflow78 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I like them a lot. They look exactly like old school replicas should. The helmet was cool too, instead of trying to make something up they go with the leather look. Pretty cool idea. I would love to see some other alternative unis, but these are really cool looking old school uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Someone please help my moral crisis!!!!!!I am boycotting nike for signing vick to another deal, BUT I really like these jerseys..... Damn it... Buy a rip-off from China for $19.99. They'll pop up eventually, and you won't be supporting Nike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallsux Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 [quote name='joeski27']Here's a phenomenal photo of the helmet, and I must say they didn't just make it look "somewhat" like leather, this thing is ultra detailed. Its actually so detailed that most people watching on TV will never really know, even in HD: [url]http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1112246/Redskins_Helmet.jpg/url] I think even if you aren't big on the uniform itself (I think its ok, not going gaga over it), you have to give credit to the helmet design and detail. No one has ever done this before, no doubt about it.[/QUOTE] That is an amazing looking helmet. Gotta admit, the more I see it, the more I like the helmet. The detail in it is amazing. It really does look like leather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I like the look. The helmet is a unique idea. Now I can cover my old plastic helmet in leather and say I have a throwback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedBNG Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 They look like the 1994 throwback jerseys. NO, no they don't. huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VRIEL1 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Besides the helmet, which I think was pretty ingenious, yes it looks like Boston College. Ya know why? ..... wait for it..... because the Redskins actually came from Boston to DC. Taa Daa. Obviously they are not going to throw on the old leather helmets again but I think using the paint scheme that makes it look like leather was rather neat. and finally some real effing GOLD pants.

s0crates Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 They look like the 1994 throwback jerseys. We did have something similiar for one game in 1994 (part of NFL's 75th). I liked those, but I think these are nicer. The new helmet is a nice touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amm0409 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I cant wait till the redskins TeamStore gets the throwbacks in stock cause I want one NOW ---------- Post added May-10th-2012 at 11:03 PM ---------- Which games will we wear them for? Against Dallas? Just saying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZRagone Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Absolutely love them, with the helmet putting them over the top. That's just really neat, unique, and a great look. I'll be honest, I'd rather see this in the regular rotation then some futuristic Oregon type jersey or even some of our past combos like burgundy and burgundy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gogoskinsgo Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I wonder if they are going to put the 80th patch on the jerseys and when will they be available for sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darc Requiem Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Those nice jerseys. I'm impressed with the effort. I mean the time that had to go into the helmet alone. Very nice. Wonder how much a number 33 jersey will go for? Wonder if it's too early to put in for a Birthday or Christmas present Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one has ever done this before, no doubt about it. Those are nice red pumps that Kerrigan is wearing in the closeup picture of the helmet! ---------- Post added May-11th-2012 at 12:14 AM ---------- If they are supposed to be throwback jerseys, why did Nike still put those God Awful stripes at the apex of the collar? They should have made it like the rest of the fabric so that it looks like a throwback, not a modern version of an old jersey...Thanks Nike!!

Renegade7 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I like 'em. Big reason why is its a darker burgundy, which I feel is a stronger color. Very ol' skool. ((Thanksgiving Day + these jerseys) X win)RGIII = :cloud9: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddub52 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I think the leather helmet is going to get A LOT of attention when they wear these. I would like to see an up close picture of the patch.

CliffBattles Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I was hoping for the early 60's feather helmet and unis.....but they completely shocked me with how awesome these are. Amazing. So damn cool. Way better than the yellow R unis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacoah Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Because Boston College football is anathema to me, I am not particularly enamored of these unis. That being said, however, I find the detail of the helmet's design intriguing and look forward to seeing what they look like when the entire team wears them during the game.
