Guess the guys that have been with the team a year or two have a better say than the fans that have been fans and paying the bills for decades.

Yeah exactly and the players aren't the ones buying the jerseys and merch and most of them will be gone by the time we change the uni again in 5 years!

Could the Front Office be "pushing" these uni's via the players to try and balance the hate? Surely, Demoff has heard the bad reviews. This would take some of the heat off Demoff. If the "players" like them they HAVE to be good, right? :roll2:

All I know is I NEVER heard one single player (currently employed by the team) bad mouth a redesign...unless they wanted to get traded/cut. lol

Watching the uniforms "in action" at the scrimmage, I have these thoughts:

[*]The segmented horns on the helmet are something of a Monet, for me, as they look better from a distance than they do close up.
[*]The blue uniform is a lighter shade of blue than I realized. Not saying I dislike it, but it will take some getting used to.
[*]There's something a little off for me about the stripe on the side of the blue pants. A bit too wide, maybe?
[*]I like the bone uniform. It's different, and I think its pretty sharp.

So, in the end, I continue to be in the middle. I like parts of the new uniforms, and am not a fan of others.
I like them better than this mess:

But they're significantly inferior to these:

Well I give them a pass on this one as Dallas always prefers their whites. I know it’s almost normal to force them to wear their blues on the road. Still, they could have just said that. I don’t know what to think.

There are some things I like about the new uniform too and that just makes me harder knowing they really could have nailed and pleased us all.

The helmet know really changes it's color depending on the lighting. I think it looks best in a darker setting making the blue a bit bluer. Too much light and it "dulls" the blue almost to a "mirror" state due top the chrome base. Just like those little "Pocket Pro" Chrome helmets they sell. (See the one in the middle)

The horn split has to go. I agree it looks better from a distance because you cannot see it. lol If you can't see it, why use it? It should just as good no matter whether you are near or far from it. Also, If there "has to be" a neutered horn, don't separate it.

I think the Bone could have been so much better by simply adding more color. More blue or yellow would have worked. The yellow line on the shoulder can barely be seen from a distance. As I said, If you can't see it, why use it? It should just as good no matter whether you are near or far from it. There needs to be more color to "pop" IMO.

IMO, the gradient thing was done poorly and is a bad idea in the first place. If they thought it was so "cool", why only use it on the B+Y's? One of the things that made our throwbacks "pop" was the amount of yellow on the blue jersey. By making it the numbers "fade" into a white just diminishes that effect. Take away the gradient and the new jersey looks a LOT better.

Lastly, why the "monochrome" look? Isn't that what the "color rush" stuff was for? We need yellow pants on both home and away as the main look. Not blue over blue or bone over bone.

Those who ordered a new jersey through the Rams team shop has anyone received their order yet? Ordered my Kupp blue jersey on May 17th and the delivery date is 09/24. I understand it’s more difficult to get these items due to COVID but it’s still a bit frustrating.
