The pants don't match everything else and it pisses me off. Those would be the most badass unis in the league if the gold matched all around. Make that the official uniforms an then a white jersey as well obviously.


But since that won't happen, we should do all we can to let the team know that the collars are fricking awful.

I agree on the color, but i like and always have liked the all black uni.

Also he loves the pats and flying elvis for some reason.

The pants stripe should match the helmet stripe. Why this hasn't happened is beyond me.

The stupid "one helmet per team" rule is so laughably pointless. Players change helmets all the time throughout the year.

Our all black unis are the goofiest in the league and I wish Payton didn't love them so much

Our helmets suck since Nike took over. They're tan instead of gold.

18. New Orleans Saints (+2). The Saints have moved up a few slots, but don't be fooled: That's because a few other teams have moved down. (We'll get to them shortly.) They have their aesthetic moments -- the white-over-gold look is particularly strong -- but they also have a bunch of problems that need to be addressed: (1) The neck roll collar design needs to go, (2) the black pants need some stripes, (3) they need non-black socks to go with the black pants, to avoid the dreaded leotard look, and (4) they should avoid the mono-black look.


I agree 100%

The pants need REAL Stripes and not some bronco stripes or steeler stripe ... I like the normal classic Cowboys, Packers stripe you know like LSU. and the All black uni's gotta Go !! For the jersey I like the Jets design sleeves etc ..

The collar is terrible as everyone has said.

I don't mind the all black uni, but I wouldn't mind seeing us experiment a bit more.

I would love for them to bring back the little Fleur de lis patch on the upper left chest over the heart that we had in 2006....It was small, not flashy, but it was unique to a jersey and I loved it.

This?





I liked it better when it was on the sleeves.

Actually, the pants gold match the jersey gold. The helmet is the only difference, and it is different because of the 1 helmet rule. Those helmets are the same color as the normal jersey, but they stripped off the normal stickers and added throwback stickers.

Yea, but the "gold" on the pants and Jerseys isn't gold at all...more like a light khaki, it looks ridiculous. And the reebok jerseys weren't any better with the frickin yellow collars

The collar is f*cking horrible and it bothers me every single game. Will this be the fourth year with that sh*t? Every offseason I hope they change it. Maybe next year.

Personally, I don't like the all black uniforms, but I know some people really like them, so I guess they are okay as long as they are not overused. I agree adding some stripes on the pants would help.

The uni's look really amateurish when the "gold" shades are different for pants, jerseys, and helmets. It is too bad that the NFL won't allow multiple helmets so the shade could change.

I like the little Louisiana shaped patch and would not mind seeing it make a comeback.

I would also be interested in seeing an alternate white jersey w/ gold lettering as a different look. They tried that look for a few years in the 90's and I thought it was pretty cool for a changeup. LINK
