I love our retros. Hell, I grew up with them and always thought we had the coolest uniforms in the league and it wasn’t even close to me.

However, I like the idea of contemporary uniforms and using the retros as a nostalgic nod to yesteryear. Like the holidays, it’s special because it’s not all year long. It makes you appreciate it all the more when they do come around.

Keep or tweak the existing, and bring the retros out a few times a season.

Agree. The throwbacks are great, but if the eventual redesign mimics the old or has elements of its design, then that kind of takes away from the luster of the throwbacks when they do wear them.

There are a alot of pretty talented designers out there. Create something new and unique with small but subtle nods to the past. And please make sure the new threads have the sleeve hawk on them. Not too much to ask I don't think.

You're just talking dirty now.

From my understanding they design a lot of jerseys now to make it difficult for Chinese counterfeits to copy. If so jerseys find themselves with just too much going on. The blue home jersey is decent in its colors but never liked the feathers look on the numbers and especially the Nike logo on the sleeves. Makes me think we should be called the seattle swooshes or something. The white jerseys are kinda meh..the wolf Grey's are boring and should be more of a charcoal grey and the neon green deserve to be in a sewer somewhere. I cannot see a time where they would of sold even one of these jerseys. Someday children in a 3rd world country will benefit from all those terrible puke greens.

Id like to see the hawk logo return to the sleeve..make the numbers a solid color and get rid of something that is simply embarrassing to look at...

I could get behind the ones in the Jamal Adams picture. I don't like the green in the old ones, plus the terrible logo. But the green very minimally looks ok with the Navy as opposed to the lighter blue from the past. I love the neon so long as it's kept to a minimum.

This is the way.

I'm perfectly good with replacing the current uniforms with NEW uniforms, but I don't want them to be replaced by the throwbacks. Throwbacks are special because they are throwbacks.

I’m just tired of the baby blue, Gwen accents and boring helmet. I want something different and it’s time. They should’ve capitalized on a new coach and a new era but didn’t.

Lose action green barf wagons, and I'm just fine with what we have. Retro unis need to stay retro/occasional IMO. They are neat - but nostalgia has put rose coloured glasses on some of the older folk around here. And yes, that's the Canadian spelling of coloured. Don't think about Tariffing my post :)

I still can't believe they didn't do it with the popularity of the throwback and the new coach coming in. It was the perfect time to start a new era. Maybe you can't and have to give a long notice? Either way our current uni's are a little dated and boring even though I like them.
We gotta wait for a new qb. Russ never wore the hasselbeck blue. He came in with the new Nike uni. So….

Regardless of uniform, I world love to see the whole team wear black shoes for an entire season.
I know that's not likely a popular opinion, but I think it would be badazz. Especially with a top defense.

Not sure why I think the white helmet works since we don’t have white as any of our colors but it just does.

Count me among those that want to make the retros the primary, and the currents the alternate. I've always loved the original color scheme, even if that blue was a bit too similar to the Colts's blue.
If they'd keep the current logo, I'm good with making the retros our primary uniform. I never could stand that stoned seagull.
