Quick reaction to Uni Watch’s information about the new Jaguars uniform set

Uni Watch has information of the new Jaguars uniform set. There are no images, but there are details on what it will look like. The information has not been officially verified, so we can’t say for sure if this is all true.

But let’s assume that it is all true, this is what we have and I will take a moment to break down each of the details that have been provided.

This mock helmet design has been floating on the Internet. Could this be what the helmet looks like?

1) The leaked image posted a month ago was indeed legit. It showed a replica of the black home jersey.

– From my initial reaction when I first saw it, I was optimistic.

2) The Jags logo patch on the jersey is facing toward the left because the unis will have a military theme (collar devices and patches in the military face toward the heart).

– That’s what I figured and I am OK with this also.

3) Continuing with the military theme, the players’ last names will appear the front of the jersey under the patch, to mimic the look of a military uniform.

– This is a new one to me. Very unique and a first in the NFL. Should the uniforms mimic so much of military uniforms to this extent? This will be a unique look which I think will be OK, although I don’t know if it’s the best idea.

4) The sleeves will have a multi-colored design similar to the what the Falcons have, featuring black, gold, chrome, and teal. In the leaked image you can see the beginnings of some silver/chrome stripe patterns starting on the shoulder area.

– This is hard to imagine at the moment. I will have to wait for the official unveil. But it could be too cluttered and that could be an issue. But if it’s a duplicate of the Falcons, it might work.

5) The jersey will have side panels with some sort of design that will continue into the pants design.

– Hopefully it’s something simple and not too complicated and visually heavy.

6) The helmet shell will be two-tone — starting out gold and then fading into black.

– This is going to be an interesting one. Could it look like this mock design?

7) The logo will be somewhat larger than normal for an NFL helmet — think Boise State’s Pro Combat helmet.

– Oh boy.

8) There will be an alternate teal jersey.

– This is what we’ve known and this is a good thing.

Overall, this could be very bad but I’d like to be optimistic and think that it could be OK. But of course, we’ll never know until we see it.
