The Jaguars have unveiled new uniforms.
I’ve read that the Jags owner has been unhappy that the team has worn at least six uniform combinations in their 15 years in the league, so they went with a more classic look.
Tthe Jaguar on the sleeve. They’ll wear teal jerseys with white pants at home and white jerseys with black pants on the road. No more black alternate uni (Horray!).
(New on the top, old on the bottom)
I'm not sold on the rounded stripe, but overall they're OK. Definitely a much cleaner look, which has prompted complaints from some fans that they're boring.
The helmets will be different also. It will still look black, but a close look will reveal more teal. As far as I can tell, the helmet logo remains the same.
Coming soon (when I get more time): A look at the new 49ers uniforms.
I just went and sneak-peeked at the Niners' new uni, and my complaint is the same I have about the Jags - and the Lions, for that matter... There's not ENOUGH change about any of them. Casual fans will never even notice...
ReplyDeleteThat's an interesting point, John. I'm not an advocate for changing a uniform (unless you have a really bad uniform, i.e. the White Sox in the 70s and 80s).
ReplyDeleteBut, with that said, you're right. Why change if you're only going to make some minor tweaks?
