fall fashion

Post by Schadenfreude »

I was against these uniforms, including the white helmets, but I must say that the team looked very good yesterday. In particular, the white helmets have really grown on me.

Yesterday's look was distinctive. No team in the nation looks like that. The Falcons should stick with this for a while, if they plan to stick to any particular scheme (and they should).

I agree with the idea of sticking to something. I think we've had new uniforms almost every year for the past 10 years, or so it seems.

I like the white pants, orange jerseys, white helmets for home. Orange pants, white jerseys, orange helmets for the road.

Wear the all orange for big home games (like Toledo) and all white on the road once a year.

Still like to see an alternate brown jersey thrown in the mix.

I must have a white BG helmet...it is the coolest helmet ever. Good thing Christmas is only a couple months away. I agree with the new unis...VERY sharp. Like 137, I would like to see the brown jersey at least one game a year...maybe white pants, brown jersey and white helmet. That would rock!!

My thoughts exactly on all of the above. Brown jersey with white helmet and white pants would be an interesting look. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and personally, I think the white jerseys with orange helmet and pants is my favorite look of all. I know a lot of posters on this forum hate the orange/orange/orange look, but I love that too and agree with 137 that it should be pulled out for a big game here and there, rather than be worn regularly. Since fashion is something that there will never be unanamous agreement on, I like the idea of switching up the uniform combos so that everyone gets to be happy about what our team is wearing at some point during the year.

They could play in pink jock straps and pads for all I care. Just win.

Yeah, the same exact shoulder feathers that EMU has is a bit annoying but the overal color scheme actually lookes pretty sharp. Wish there was more brown in it though.

I rolled my eyes at the white helmets but I am beginning to favor them over the orange.
It's a clean and very sharp look. I would love to see it with BROWN JERSEYS!

I agree that they should run with this look for more than just this year.

I was curious which look I prefer and figured I may as well put this altogether for everyone. I think my favorite look is white/orange/white.

Word. I definitely would like to see that tried.

Also, the winged feathers or whatever are silly. I do agree with others on that.

I prefer the Orange, Orange, White. I really like the flat orange of the helmet. My favorite part of the unis is the half sleeve tee with ay ziggy and zoomba.
