Nike will become the NFL's uniform supplier beginning in April. We've had this as a topic before, but the change is just around the corner. It'll be interesting to see how the teams will be affected and what the changes will be to the Bengals ensemble.

As a side note, I tried to buy a Dalton or AJGreen jersey at Christmas and was unable to find either at the local Dick's store. The clerk said that two things happened with these players in particular. The first is that the number of uniforms made was relatively low since Reebok was uncertain of their success in 2011. Secondly, the store itself bought fewer Bengals uniforms than normal because of the impending change.

I'm not knowledgeable about uniforms but I wonder if a 2011 AJ Green or Andy Dalton might actually have some extra value because of the low quantities produced?

The team and the NFL have to approve any changes to the jerseys. The brand can only change the materials they are made of. The designs are off limits to the manufacturer.

That being said, the Bengals need to change their uniforms. They are hideous. The whites are tolerable, the home blacks are worse, and the orange jersey is bad, bad, bad...

The helmets are the staple to uniform so no change needed there...but the overall look needs to be toned down and streamlined!

As DImster mentioned in the Pro Bowl thread, the Panthers are changing their logo for the first time since their inception in 1995. It is a slight change but looks good.

It also couldn't be worse than those neon green pieces of sh*t the Seahawks wear either...

I think I read somewhere that the Seahawks are the only team changing their uniforms for 2012. It's good for them, because like you said, the neon green tinge and all steel blue top and bottoms are terrible...

Again, all this does is give a reason for a team to make a change in regards to how their uniforms actually look, but the league still needs to approve of any change a team wants to make. Can't say as there will be many changes outside the fabric used to make the jerseys.

Oh, I also like our orange jerseys. I like the white ones least.

If it ain't orange and black, take it back!
