Saints Uniform Tweaks Concept (1 Viewer)

[bigdub81]

Since the introduction of our white pants, many of you like myself, have stated that they are just a bit too bland without some kind of striping. Here I've added the customary wide black stripe, but this time it has two thin gold stripes on the outsides mimicking the jersey numbers. There is no FDL at the hip on either set and I've added alternate socks to both just see what they would look like.

The one on the right is basically the color rush jersey, correct? I do dig the pants on the left more than just the plain white. I sort of envision a huge gold fleur de lis on the upper thigh at an angle, with a black outline. Those plain whites just need something.

I don’t mind the FDL on the wide stripe because it doesn’t run into anything. Putting them on the stripes on the color rush set just looks awkward. Even Carolina got rid of their logos at the hips.

Football pants needs stripes, bottom line. It's what completes the color rush uniforms, that gold and black striping. Without that, you have long johns....which is what they wore last Sunday.

I like the thick black stripe with the gold thin lines in each side. Since they have to keep the black neck stripe on the white jerseys, the pants should have black as well, otherwise it doesn´t look good.

I was thinking more along the lines of something like this. After popping the logo on in photoshop, I realize that it doesn't really match the rest of the uniform. I do like the black stripe. It definitely could use something to make it less plain.

Though they were "freeing" and airy, all three quarterbacks voted a strong "NO" on these pants.

I think it is the popular opinion of fans and SSF board members that the white pants just don't make sense. We already have a pair of white pants with our color rush that look better. We should either make our color rush the full time away, or leave the uniforms like they are with no white pants. White/Gold pants looks great and is what we won SB XLIV in. White/black looks good also, although it is a bit bland. But both are better looking IMO than the non color rush all white.


While this is an opinion, the Saints have a great tradition in the current uniforms and have had success in them. Adding too many options is a way of getting away from the tradition that we have in place.

The white pants need a stripe. It simply looks better.

Don’t like the plain white pants used against JAX. This team has some of the best uniforms in sports. Keep it that way.

The Color Rush set brings in a ton of gold through the numbers and stripes on the sleeves and pants. All of which helps draw our helmet color in even more which when paired with so much white, it gives a clean and crisp look.

I just think the team tried to capitalize off of the CR’s popularity with fans and it was 50/50. Without that stripe going with our traditional away jersey, the look falls flat. Adding a decent stripe would fix that.

I always thought the solid blacks needed a stripe, but after years of exposure to those I’ve accepted them and feel the same about the all-whites.

 

[RiverRat]

I thought I would hate the all whites, but I ended up really enjoying them. I wouldn’t want them to be our standard away uniforms, but they’re a clean alternate. I’d really like to see a black version of the color rush that is a nod to throwbacks, but a little more modern.

I think the wide black stripe with thin gold looks nice. Breaks up the solid white and adds definition.

I love the all white - no stripes.

 

[Hey BAY BAY!!!]

White unis ok. Nothing to write home about but the only thing that would have made the all white solid pants lethal was the Saints should have broke out a white helmet with a gold fleur de lis. That would have looked awesome.
