Did you become a Jets fan because of Shonn Greene? 

I'm pretty sure it was because of Kyle Wilson.

I’d have to see it first, but I wouldn’t necessarily be opposed to it if it fit.

I think the only modification that needs to be made is honestly getting rid of that large blade stripe and moving back to a traditional shoulder stripe and gettign the NEW YORK off the front of the jersey.  Also if htey got rid of the football on the helmet and went back to the old 80 italics jets logo the uniform will hit that sweet spot we were hoping for.  They didnt miss the mark by much honestly.

You said that about a friend who works at Models.

Now its Dicks.

We havent had a winning team in those uniforms, has nothing to do with what they look like

The uniform isnt bad, I can live with it, I wish they used the 70s-90s logo on this helmet, or a play on it

I've mentioned Modells when NY Jets merchandise went on sale in October/November for 50% off. 

Modells is out of business my friend has worked for Dicks Sporting Goods since they opened here in N.J. 

We haven't had a Super Bowl winning team since 1969 but the old jerseys and merchandise sold unlike now.

the uni's really are hideous.  I've tried to like them.  They suck. 

Stadium fail.  Uniform fail. Coaching staff decades of consistent fail including NOW.  GM fail.  1st round pick fails (constant).  Free Agency fails (always).  

Woody and Chris Johnson.  They should be publicly tarred and feathered.  We deserve better after all these years.  

They are going to keep Gase around to ruin the next 1st round QB pick.  There is really close to zero chance of any other result with Gase here.  He is that bad. At everything. 

The only strong thing about the Jets are their fans.  Solid men and women supporting an all out loser.  

I see a legit possibility of a turnaround with JD now.

Let's hope he has the same brains and balls as the collective of Jets fans.

Our Stealth Blacks are generally considered our best look. I don't necessarily agree but the people love them.

The new uniforms are trash, a total failure as a concept, an embarrassment from the get go with the worst presentation ever conducted, and should be incinerated immediately.  Why would a franchise want to evoke memories of their once lowest era (only to duplicate it)?

 

That's the best professional uniform designers could do? Half the fan submitted nonsense looked 100× better than that sh*t they rolled out, from the shiny Christmas Ornament helmets to the oh so terrible combo of black and bright green...

 

Total crap.

 

Jets....JETS... NOT 737s, the cool sh*t we use to DOMINATE THIS PLANETS SKIES!!!

 

CHROME HELMETS!! Subdued grey with green. That was the way to go, but pussy ass liberal Nike and the Retard Brothers went with bubble font words,  Children's toy green, with a clear influence from children's onesies.

 

Sad.

Not sure why you think you think any of this is acceptable.

I will chalk it up as a bad lapse in judgement which is why I banned you for less than a week. I don't ever do bans that short. Step away and if you decide to come back, do so without the name calling, personal attacks and political commentary.

Just a hunch, but I don't think the uniforms are the problem.

They are part of the many problems here.

Switch back to a white helmet and the current uniform will improve greatly.

 

Hell,  white helmet with normal shoulder stripes and they look decent.  White helmet with vertical shoulder stripes (think Colts) and they’ll be SWEET. 

[joewilly12 24,373]

This was the best logo in the NFL 

[UntouchableCrew 6,074]

If it were up to me I'd dump them and go back to our classic unis as soon as they let us.

I like the green helmet too, but with a few exceptions:

1.  I don't like the way it looks on old school helmets.  Not a big problem obviously, but Flacco's old hat looks really bad without a center stripe or something visually interesting.  Again, wouldn't even mention it if not for Flacco getting so much screen time.

2.  I don't like it with the green jerseys as the colors clash in most lighting conditions.  Looks great with the white and black uni's though.

In some of the photos posted they look decent...in action the green ones are horrible. The all white is passable/OK.

The black for blacks sake uniforms were unnecessary and just gives the Jets something else they shouldn’t be worrying about. Their uniform schedule seems more organized than their draft process. Pro tip- ditch the all black uniforms when you’re winless, they aren’t fooling anyone.

[jgb 27,749]

I'm not convinced that the new uniform is not a horcrux of suck

People keep saying this but most NFL teams seem to now have a black uniform.  More teams wear black than we ev er saw in the 90s.  The Browns, the Jets, the Falcons, the Saints, the Ravens, the 49rs, the Steelers, the bengals, Jax, Eagles, etc

You could say the same for ollege teams, too many to name

Sorry, I should have clarified that I was talking about NBA uniforms, and black in general being the "it" color of the time.

[Daddy Wang Doodle 1,251]

The jets shouldn't wear anything but the kelly green uniforms they once wore. That plus the simple "jet streak" helmet

[DoubleDown 6,880]

The new uniforms are fine.  Modern, but not over the top.  Have you seen some of the other trash Nike has designed in the past few years?  We got lucky.

The Jets need new players and new coaching, not new uniforms.

I was a Jet fan long before Shonn Greene.  I became a Jets fan because as a kid I decided I didn't want to be a Bears fan like my Dad and brother.

I picked the Jets because they were Green(my favorite color) and I liked their helmets(80s/Early 90s version).  

My mom tells me I picked the Jets because my favorite color was green

funny, I don’t remember ever liking the color green

mustve been when I was 4 or 5

[BroadwayBen 653]

Still think these new uniforms are both evil and an abomination. 

Classics are FAR superior to the new look, and yes i'm still grieving about this. 

Really hope the jets can return to (at the very least) a revamped version of the classic look in the future. 

[Jap 2]

They are horrible and disgusting have some respect for yourselves and go back to the 68 Kelly green or the sack exchange uniforms enough is enough

I wonder who he voted for?  

[Tranquilo 203]

The logo is uninspiring, the uniforms are aight and the helmets are nice.

[Biggs 10,243]

It's not the uniform, it's the laundry detergent.  

[Warfish 29,036]

Poll needs an options for "So boring and bland that I cannot ever  generate enough passion to care about them".

They're uniforms, and they blend into the background for the most part.  They're just meh, not good in any real way, but so genetically boring as to not warrant real hate.

Pretty par for the course for the 2020's tbh.

[joewilly12 24,373]

The new uniforms are FUGLY almost as UGLY as the 2-14 season we just had. 

[Bronx 797]

In case we keep Darnold, instead of seeing ghosts, he can actually see his own receivers.

Colours are fine. logo on helmet’s gotta go. 

I can’t believe with a name like Jets, that’s what they came up. Balloon letters and a fcking football.

Johnsons are the best businessmen in the NFL when it comes to profits. Make the new unis bad but not a prima facie fail and then 5 years later throw a "we listened to you the fans" and switch back to something more classic. Double dip on the rush for people to restock on swag.

The new and improved ones aren't selling for various reasons.

Yeah, never know who's going to be on the team next year. Plus there's some social pressure to wear the new ones when watching in person or with other fans.

I had to defend myself as a "real fan" after positing a picture of my dad and I wearing matching Namath jerseys because they weren't "authentic 1969 jerseys" but modern ones (early-2000s) with his name on it.

I literally had to post a photo of Namath himself wearing that exact uniform to shut them down.
