Texans New Uniforms

[thunderkyss]

Eh. They all look like the falcons vikings seahawks Bengals and a couple other teams nutted into a bowl and somehow made a jersey.

Our original jerseys were a trillion times better.

These are more like the original jerseys, colorwise than the ones they wore last year.


I also liked the old English H in the endzone.

That deep steel blue looked daaaammmmm good today.

It was meh for me. I personally think it would’ve hit harder with the blue pants. Today shouldn’t have been called deep steel blue theme with them nasty arse white pants. Like a said, my personal opinion. Some may love that combination but I’m not one of them.

I'm not aware there was any theme for the day. I was just talking about the color itself & actually seeing it in the context.

They were alright but I don’t like how they had little to do with the road whites. These blue tops did not have the horn stripes on the shoulders like the whites do, which I think are pretty cool.

With the whites the Texans had a distinction, an identity, when you saw them from afar. Today it looked pretty much like the same ol same ol with a darker shade of blue. Put the freaking horns on the shoulders.

IMO, from the stands the darker blue looks more like black.

That’s because it was contrasting the beam of the light of a thousand suns.

Looked pretty darn awesome to me.

I'd call it "Even Deeper Steel Blue." I got a home Stroud jersey for my birthday, and compared it to my black keyboard. Its blue, but it looks like black with a dash of navy blue.

The battle red seems to look very different on my phone depending where I look at it, is it more an orange colour in-person? I personally think the new unis look awesome and a welcome update, especially as I much preferred the old Reebok kit to the newer Nike one, the classic look looked so much better on the reeboks, the Nike jerseys suit an updated style.

First game done, how we feeling about the unis so far? Me...I love em.

The unis are ok, I guess. I’m honestly more worried about the lack of pressure from our pass rushers and the secondary getting torched the way they did by a running QB.

Reds are still my favorite...like the new helmets...the whites are growing on me...we'll see how they look in the others as they wear them.

At first I didn't care for the horns on the shoulders, it just looked awkward. However, they have grown on me and are very different from all other uni's in the NFL. Front the front, they look great.

My wife, who gets very into how the teams look, loved the new uniforms. For me, the blue looks a little too dark, but I have the fashion sense of a thing that has no fashion sense.

If those uniforms were supposed to be dark blue, they don't appear that way. Looks like black & white to me.

 

[DBCooper]

Yeah appears black to me until I look really close too.

In the right light conditions you can see a hint of blue. But Deep Steel Blue is now Deeper Steel Blue. Got some gunpowder on those cannons.

My son came by the house yesterday and watched the game with me. He was wearing the new steel blue jersey….it looks great!!!! In person, there’s enough blue hue to not confuse it with black. I haven’t seen the liberty white or battle red jerseys yet, but I’m looking forward to it.

I actually like the horns on the shoulders. The dark blues however don’t have that look, which I think is odd.

Don’t particularly care for the nearly black blue, but as long as they win I don’t really care.

Is that red on the uniforms the exact red on those red shirts DeMeco loves to wear? I ask because those shirts seem to have a shot of orange in them. I think someone else here noticed that also. Can’t really see it on those number outlines but I like the DeMeco red. I think it pops off the blue because it’s more vibrant and not flat. Fire is a good description. I’ve got flame acanthus plants and the flowers are called flame because they have that red orangish color.

I heard somewhere that it is Ohio State red? Not sure if thats true, but if so, yes, a bit of an organge tint to it.

Edit: Found this on google. I think the Buckeyes call it "Scarlet"
