    Miami Dolphins New Logo/Uniform Thread: Uniform Leak

    And all would look tacky as hell as a number font on a uniform. Interesting in theory, but awful in practice.

    There is only one that the NFL would have approved:

    In other words. The University of Miami in the early 00's decided to change the fonts on all their uniforms for all of their teams.

    They wanted it to reflect "Miami" and paid consultancies to come up with this:

    FinJesse just said the helmet had "Aqua stripe with orange and navy outline" so hopefully he got confirmation and such

    I'm a fan as well. If they decide to give us an alternate with aqua pants, the socks must have stripes. None of this "colored-sock-matching-colored-pants" deal.

    It's funny that you post the UM font... b/c I think this font looks exactly like that, except italicized with a capital letter instead of all lower case.

    I like them. Te all whites, especially. In fact, my only complaint is the pants stripe, aqua socks and helmet stripe. If they were ALL whites, I would freaking buy my first football jersey in a long, long, time.

    Simple is good. I works for us. I don't hate the font, I don't dislike the logo and putting them riot next to the Jags makes me eternally more grateful for being a Miami fan.

    If this is true, then wouldn't it make sense that the number trim was also navy?

    i don't mind the jags uniform. not great but at least its something dynamic and different. Ours are plain, and severely underwhelming......I'm beyond disappointed..... especially after being one of the new logos biggest advocates.....The helmet is cool. but imho the uniforms just blow dude. There were so many hundreds of decent concepts....quite a few were so much better than this........ This is all they could come up with? What the hell did they do aside from make the color stand out less/ be more bland, and make the font more dull and uninteresting???.... As much as it kills me to say it..... I'd prefer the old unis. I took a poll around work with a ton different people, showing them the set of phins/jags/vikings of the pics linked here when they were posted. and the consensus was "Ew" "Wow really?...yikes" from people ranging from avid NFL fans to people who don't know what a football looks like.

    edit: After looking at the pics when i got home on my 1080p .... i guess its not as bad as i was thinking when looking at my phone. Even if I don't dislike them, i'm still not even slightly impressed.

    yes. It makes more sense if the pants striping pattern matches both the helmet and uniform.

    They kept it plain/classic, but then take the orange out ? And for the modernization...... they made the stripes on the helmet and uniform hideous ? I'd actually prefer the 3-D looking helmet stripe from the earlier concepts to this.
    Absolutely Love the new logo.... But these uniforms are certainly not worth all this hype we built. We changed our Logo, Colors, and Stripes. The uniforms are just new by default. I just scratched my plans to buy a jersey. Not interested in all this blue. The lack of orange is even worse. Makes the tiny bit included in the logo, swoosh look awkward.

    Hopefully they make a few wearable hats at some point down the road. This is extremely dissapointing to me. Was anxious to show these off to everyone like I did the logo. I had $hundreds ready for dolphins gear, now here I am.... I'll just take the sticker for the car window, and a hat maybe.

    I just saw the logo that the NFL network had on with Ben violin, it's navy, and it's prominent, I don't think they would go black outline, like most said, it just doesn't make any sense..

    Yes it does, and that's what folks aren't taking into account, when they see it for real it's gonna look real cool and full, that scheme is not identifiable with these pics.

    It's unfortunately not in the jersey though. The stripe will hopefully grow on me, but I wish they'd atleast done something with the jerseys

    I like the uniform. I wanted a very clean look. I almost wonder if I would have preferred it w/o anything on the sleeve (the logo or Nike emblem). It would of almost looked like a storm trooper. I'm glad that the orange is only an accent now.

    I don't like the Jags uni at all. I like the Vike's purple top variation, but not the one with the white jersey and purple pants. I don't like their font at all and it really stands out on the white jersey. I do like the Vike's more matte look on the helmet.

    People are complaining that our font is a default one, but when I look at this and the Vikes' one, I'm even happier we got a classic look!

    So is classic what people classify dull things as? I mean if its plain and not dynamic and hardly even a change does it automatically qualify as 'classic' ?
