jjakq27 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 http://profootballta...l-buyer-beware/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?

ArmyBengal Posted January 24, 2012 Report Posted January 24, 2012 I'm also interested in what if any changes there will be to the jerseys.I just don't see huge changes being made. I'm sure the league made stipulations in that regard as part of the contract. Quote
cincyhokie Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 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!

ArmyBengal Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 Yeah there was something on PFT about how there will be little change unless a team is wanting to make some changes.Outside of the fabric change, teams still have to petition the league to make changes.Nike has no say so minus league approval.

Stripes Posted January 26, 2012 Report Posted January 26, 2012 I love the orange jerseys. I'd be an advocate of the Bengals wearing them in every home game and switching to black as the alternate. Quote
jjakq27 Posted January 29, 2012 Author Report Posted January 29, 2012 New Nike gloves coming for the Pro Bowl tonite/>http://m.bleacherreport.com/articles/1042996-pro-bowl-2012-uniforms-nfl-stars-will-sport-killer-new-nike-gloves-in-hawaii Quote
wpeldios Posted January 29, 2012 Report Posted January 29, 2012 I also love the orange jeresies. I would make them the main, but go with throwbacks as the alts. And Ill add to it, I dont like the gloves. Quote
jjakq27 Posted January 30, 2012 Author Report Posted January 30, 2012 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./>http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/Carolina-Panthers-change-logo-for-first-time-013012 Quote
walzav29 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 What would it hurt to have 1 game where Nike goes nuts with the Uni? It can't be worse than the throwback seasons. Those were disgusting. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 It also couldn't be worse than those neon green pieces of sh*t the Seahawks wear either... Quote
cincyhokie Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 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... Quote
BengalsClones33 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 Denver and Arizona are rumored as well. Supposively Denver is going back to the orange look. Quote

ArmyBengal Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 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. Quote
walzav29 Posted February 1, 2012 Report Posted February 1, 2012 I like the all black the most, but they never seem to win a big game in those uni's. Quote

Dimster28 Posted February 2, 2012 Report Posted February 2, 2012 It also couldn't be worse than those neon green pieces of sh*t the Seahawks wear either...well i like that neon green piece of s**tmaybe because my favorite color in order is orange, black, then neon green, i usually made black uniform with neon green for my madden team.

ArmyBengal Posted February 2, 2012 Report Posted February 2, 2012 Nevermind Dim. Poor attempt at humor based upon everyone I hear talking about them generally thinks they are green pieces of sh*t. Quote
Stripes Posted February 2, 2012 Report Posted February 2, 2012 I liked the obscenely green Seahawks jerseys too, but I understand why most wouldn't. It doesn't get much louder than that. Quote
