They're green and white, they are unmistakably the Jets, and it's really no big deal. In the end, we went with green helmets and fewer stripes. It's a hybrid of the 80's look at the 00's look. I don't love them but I like them very much. As for the design, it's not easy for Nike to be creative when you're named after a piece of transportation equipment. And that nod to aerodynamics or flight that was there in our 80s logo is still there, it just moved to the jersey and pants stripes. That airplane wing or airplane wedge has returned all over the team's design language after 22 years. SAR I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked the darker green but I do love the new green. I actually like our new uniforms other than the unnecessary addition of black. Bring back white facemask, bring back 80s logo on the helmet, get rid of "New York" on front and the unis would be almost perfect. Agreed, but those are a lot of tweaks. The "New York" across the chest was done I'm sure by some Madison Ave agency, which probably doesnt get the fanbase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tezza Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 These mockups were excellent Wow those look great, with the new helmet rule after next season maybe we can see this as an alt helmet and some throwback uni combos?I like mine. Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile appI know my jerseys and that is a customized official elite jersey! That is a thing of beauty my friend, how does the fit compare to the Nike game jerseys? They're green and white, they are unmistakably the Jets, and it's really no big deal.

Yes our old jerseys had a lot of history but we will create more history with these ones ! I posted this in another thread, our new airplane wedge symbol is a direct copy of 2/3 of the 80's logo. Cut, paste, rotate a few degrees, it's the same triangle. The new wedge looks like a stealth fighter (no vertical stabilizer) where the old wedge looked like a Concorde which was cutting-edge at the time. Or the new wedge looks like a speedy vapor trail. Or perhaps a wing. Either way, I think it's a simple/good way to illustrate "fast flight" on an NFL uniform. And if you think about it, our uniforms were basic-NFL design parallel stripes and never conveyed anything "Jets" or "flight" or "speed" about them except for that wedge helmet logo in the 80's. So I think that's why its important and why it inspired the new Nike design. All our past uniforms were just different version of "stripes". Our new uniform is about "flight".

nycdan Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 True fact: Our new uniforms look 67.2% better in the opponent's end zone than at mid-field. And the contrast when they are on top of the opposing QBs uniform provides a 94.1% boost to likeability. It's really all situational. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker89 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 The fact that that anyone gets as heated about the jerseys as some in this thread do is a hilarious. Hot Take: All of our jerseys have sucked I'll still rock any one of them. The current clip art logo is an abomination. The wordmark Jets logo starting in '78 was my favorite. At the end of the day It's really just the best of a bad situation.
