Jaguars Unveil New Uniforms: Picture Time

Picture Time: Let's check out the New Uniforms!

First, the Glitter/Sparkle Helmet:

Sparkles_medium

My Take: I like it, the Logo is still the same, it's going to look black in most light situations, but the teal tinkle is going to take some time to get used to.

Teal Home Uniform:

Picture_4_medium

My Take: Derek Landri looks HUGE.  Jones-Drew also looks huge.  Both look good in the Home-Teal.  In case you're worried about the teal in the hot Jacksonville sun, Reebok says it won't be an issue.

We reduced the weight of the jersey 30% from the uniform of last year, which is real important. It’s going to be more of a compression fit from a performance standpoint, all moisture management technologies in the mesh fabrication, anti-microbial technologies. And also what we’re really excited about, we partnered with this company and we have this new technology called cold black and it’s very interesting. Especially down in Florida where darker colors, for instance, when you wear the teal, if you have the teal fabrication without the cold black, with the cold black technology on the fabrication, the fabric will not retain heat. So it’ll be 10 to 15 degrees less in heat compared to the fabrication without it."

We'll have to take their word for it.

Away Uniform and New Logo:

Starks_medium
My Take: I love the white jersey and black pants combo, it looks tough.  I also dig the block font for the logo, but the lines that come out of the J and the S are bothersome.  The full bodied cat is gone, something that I'm very OK with.  Now, had they gotten rid of the Teal-Tongue, I'd have cried foul.

Your thoughts?

I Like it

The helmet looks the best, but I have no problem with the new jerseys. Although some fellow Hungarian Jags fans, with i connected, said they are sad, that the full bodied cat disapeared, and because of that ,they not like it so much. but As i said i have no problems with it.
Good was to see David looked so slim, Greg Jones and Landri so huge, and Maurice to be so enjoyed the whole show!

I love that there are more than one Hungarian Jags Fans.

If I go to Budapest, I demand that we get a pint.

Like it overall

Getting used to it. However, I still think the teal looks different. Love the helmets. Really like the away uniform. Wish they had kept the full bodied cat. Wish they would use the all black for third uni. Disappointed about that. What will our third uni be btw? Anyone know?

The new uniforms are ALMOST too simple looking. Heard mentions of looking like Pop Warner. Not far from it IMO

by Blair72 on Apr 22, 2009 9:20 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

No third uniform

There is no third uniform. Weaver said every home game will be teal and every away game will be white. I’m sure they’ll bring something back in a couple years though.

The helmet looks fine

I’m “eh” about the rest. Then again if I had it my way this would still be our helmet.

Away uni is OK. The Home uni sucks.

I like that one

But Jaguar got all pissy and ruined it.

The more I see it the more I like it.

As to the lines coming out from the J and S in the font if you look carefully it actually sculpts the shape of the top of a football.

Jim Brown, Barry Sanders, Fred Taylor. Sounds about right.

The pictures don't do the uni's justice. Wait until you see them in HD, especially the Helmet.

I caught a glimpse of them on Channel 4. Look’s great. I initially didn’t like them too much but after seeing them in HD they look awesome.

by Slvrgun on Apr 22, 2009 9:31 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I love em

They’re much cleaner and modern, yet classic. I’ve never been a jersey guy, but I am honestly considering getting one of those away whites. They look sweet. Apparently you won’t be able to get the away for about a week. according to football fanatics.

I like that the “crawler” is gone from the sleeves. I wanna see more of the helmet before I decide.

by JagHack on Apr 22, 2009 10:24 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I'm Torn

I can’t quite decide if I love em or hate em. I like the modern look, and the new technology as well. I think the helmet is going to look sweet in the sunlight.

I like it and Garrard really does look slim. I laughed at myself for watching an all men runway show today though haha.

Just a thought

How about we refrain from referring to our helmet as the “Glitter/Sparkle Helmet”

by SoCalStites on Apr 22, 2009 11:46 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I Like It

It looks corny in pictures, but I think its going to look great in the sunlight and in H.D.

I’m still not sure if the like the old jerseys or new jerseys more, but I definitely love the helmet.

The lines coming from the J and S of the logo look very unprofessional.

and the uniforms kinda look like college unis

I'm not so sure.

When I first saw the Reebok billboard I though they looked like a cross between Seattle and Atlanta.

Remember: If you ever run into a rude Tennessee Titans fan just say to them "Mike Jones! WHO?!? Mike Jones! WHO?!? Mike Jones!"

What am I missing?

The uniforms are so minimal that there is nothing to be disappointed in or get excited about. It is more a standardization of what color we wear when and that is all I see.

I’m sure the fabric is nice, the helmets made me look, but in all honesty, that was it for me. A real big, ok fine, let’s play some football and get these things dirty.

Good points, Tkopa

I bet the players don’t really care one way or the other, either. I think the better the Jags play this year, the better the uniforms will look on Sundays.

Kind of like Jordans, at first glance they were some of the ugliest shoes, but any shoe looked great on Jordan putting up 60 points.

Can someone please post a close up of the J and S

I want to see what you guys are talking about.

by JagSoldier on Apr 23, 2009 8:43 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

You can see that..

In the last picture….. the one that has Scott Starks in it….

The J and the S of the JAGUARS have a horizontal line coming out of them…….

Check the Jaguars.com photo gallery

There are better pictures in there of everything…and from multiple angles.

by acedarney on Apr 23, 2009 9:33 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I think you are talking about the logo on the jersey which is not the logo others are talking about. The logo with line coming out of the J and S is the one on the banner.

by Pickle on Apr 23, 2009 10:23 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Think they are plain

I wish they would have kept the gold and black band on the sleeve. I also wish they had the all black that they used for special games……like the texans and thier battle reds.

The only thing I like are the helmets.

by Pickle on Apr 23, 2009 10:11 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

The Texans

Look like Ketchup bottles in their battle reds.

Yeah, and the Titans on their blog site

were bragging about having the best home uniforms in the league. Are you kidding me? They have the worst logo, worst uniform colors, design, etc. My 2 year old son could have come up with a better color combination than two blues.

I Agree

The Titans say that their home uniforms look slick. Not hardly. Two blues, and a logo that really does just look plain stupid.

Get rid of teal!

Personally, I won’t be happy until the Jags eliminate teal altogether … it’s just not a very manly color. And the players don’t like it … remember a couple of years ago they were all lobbying for fans to wear black to an upcoming night game and Wayne squelched it, said everyone should wear teal? I know the players hate losing the all black option, and so do I.

When we got the team 16 years ago, I was hoping they would look back at the old Jacksonville Bulls unis from the USFL days … maroon as the base color, with silver and black accents … very cool, very tough looking. No team in NFL uses maroon. We could have tied into the history of pro football in Jax and also had really distinctive uniforms.

But these’ll do … especially if Gene Smith kicks some buitt this weekend!

They call it burgundy

The reality is, however, they actually use FSU Garnet and Gold

Having looked at some of the up close pics and video on Jags.com, I think the away Jerseys look pretty hard.

They look better than the Home ones do. I say thy look ok… It’ll take some getting used to though.

I missed the live feed. I just went to jaguars.com and found the video in the multimedia section under recent videos. After watching that I do like the uniforms a little more.

I hate the Titans uniforms.

They dont have a lot of room to talk.

They chose the wrong element to post to make fun of it

The dark green helmet is bad-ass

And yes, they’re just bitter children

by Orlando Rays on Apr 23, 2009 2:47 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

And wow, that is some serious bitter in that post

Worst franchise in the league? The Jags mainly had serious injury problems last year. You’d have to go through many chronically-terrible, and several “good”, teams before getting to the Jags on the whole-franchise greatness scale.

And don’t forget the drama with Vince Young last year.

They remind me of the Eagles uniforms, but overall I like the new look. Now let’s get them dirty and get back to the playoffs!

They scream “Pop Warner”. Especially the font.

THE JAGS LET US DOWN YET AGAIN

I am a little late on my post here (sorry i was out of town the last two days) but i cant express enough how disappointing these new uniforms are after all of that build up. Although I like these more than the originals, I was hoping for so much more! These uniforms are SO anti-climatic its not even funny.

Jags…you had a chance to be the envy of the league with a cool new look. One that when we saw we would all go…..“wow!”…..instead, we are left with…….“wait, thats it???”……..

Jags…you had a chance to come up with something that would make the fans of this team proud…..instead we are left to defend ourselves once again to fans of other teams who constantly make fun of us for how poorly this franchise can be ran at times.

Jags…you had a chance to set the bar. Look at the Broncos, the Cardinals, the Vikings etc. These teams did it RIGHT. Their players AND THEIR FANS look GOOD in their uniforms. Our fans are basically going to be wearing a jersey that looks like a teal t-shirt with some small half stripes by the arm-pit. B O R I N G ! ! !

If we are going to be stuck with teal, then wayne and the gang could have at least come up with a uniform that made us forget how bad that color is. instead it just emphasized it more.

AND NO MORE ALL BLACK OR ALL WHITE? ARE YOU SERIOUS? WHY NOT???

this change didnt improve our identity, it only left us having to question it more.

For shame.

Are you saying the uniforms should look like that?

Or do you wish Adrian Peterson was a Jaguar?

by SoCalStites on Apr 23, 2009 8:26 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Talking about the uniforms

I am using that pic of AP as an example of what our uniforms could have looked like….now obviously we wouldnt copy the vikings exactly, but this is just a photoshop’d example of how much cooler looking our jerseys could have looked with a style similar to theirs.

by espntheocho on Apr 23, 2009 8:28 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

The uniforms are fine.

The helmet is awesome.

Teal is not that terrible.

None of this matters if the team isn’t better next year.

The team will be better next year.

End.

Teal is the Jaguars

The Jaguars are teal. You can’t have one without the other. I really don’t understand everyone’s criticism of the color. What did they expect?

Uni's look good

Not to smurfish thank God( I was so worried about that for weeks I didnt wanna jinx it by posting) I absolutely love the away jersey with the black numbers! Helmet looks like my bowling ball, sweet!
