jetstream23 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 7 hours ago, BROOKLYN JET said: Authentic is usually heavier weight, higher quality materials and $100-$150 more. It's closer to the player's version but not exact. Have not seen them in Jets anywhere yet, however you can find them for another team and compare via the product description write ups. I believe authentic ARE the actual on-field player jerseys except that they’re cut differently (ex. not intended to fit over equipment, shoulder pads, etc) and may not have certain extra reinforcements like double/triple stitching, etc. I’d want an official answer by I know this is essentially how it used to be done. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsMetsDevilsPA Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 On 4/6/2019 at 7:44 PM, SAR I said: Agreed. And Sam and Jamal love the new logo. And the Concorde doesn't fly anymore. SAR I I hated the redesigned logo originally but it is growing on me now. There's one thing I don't get though. I am by no means a graphic design guy (R&D/Training Guy in the Cable Industry) but If you look at the football design there was a lot of room for a plane/jet design in the laces itself. If they would have just made those laces a little bit longer and shorter in certain areas there would definitely be a plane/jet representation considering the ball is separated length wise. head on view of a jet through the laces...... Am I crazy? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the average person from those countries who have no idea what the NFL is our "sentence" actually reads: "Gibberish Gibberish GIBBERISH (picture of a taco? hamburger? clam shell? pistachio? male reproductive organ from top view?)"

Conformity of thought - probably best explained by warding off dissonance. If we're looking at this really objectively. These aren't NFL uniforms. They don't look like any other NFL uniforms. They look like XFL or HS uniforms. Mostly, they look like a product designed to sell to 18-30-year-olds. They have harsher lines, brighter/bolder colors. And what a shock, that's exactly what Nike is in the business of doing. The design shows a complete lack of care for or interest in the New York Jets. It's a product, and the Jets will advertise it. This design has Nike written all over it. A minor change wouldn't sell en-mass to 18-30-year-olds. And hey, I like Nike. But I don't look for the same thing in my running shoes that I do in the Jets overall look. And the number one goal of this uniform is to sell it, nothing to do with football. Admitting they're bad though, that's admitting that they Jets did it very wrong (wrong, at least, in the sense of creating a football jersey, not a product.) 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes or No. 4) If someone likes the uniform does that mean they like the logo? Yes or No. Vice versa, if someone likes the logo does that mean they have to like the uniform? Yes or No. 5) In a discussion about a logo, does citing polls regarding uniforms have any relevance? Yes or No. I've never called "all those" who like the uniforms stooges, I've also never said anyone was wrong for liking something, especially not "over and over again". If I did any of these things, I'm sure it will be easy enough for you to quote the posts where I did that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
