Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over

Ha, I'm just trying to give the guy an accurate reply. I know there's a lot of beer drinkers and major tailgaters on here. I've heard people complain about the fit of Nike jerseys but I've found them to be an upgrade. It's all about your build.

I had someone think I was black last week on the WP. If someone also thought I was 350 pounds and saying the jerseys fir great, they wouldn't want one, would they?

It's all about perspective.

For jersey-fitting purposes, I look more like Wes Welker than BJ Raji.

Short, very white dude.

The new jerseys are a much nicer fit. I always felt like I was swimming in the old reebok ones.

Good example here

New York's only team!


I know I originally posted that on here but that photo does bug me a little. The guy either gained a lot of weight in a year or he did a little stretching on that Reebok half of the image. Look at his head.

He didn't have to. Nike jerseys DO fit a lot better than the Reebok and everything in his captions is true.

Just found out we get a corporate discount at nflshop so I want to get a new jersey. I guess I'll do that now then, thanks for the info.

the fit is good, less baggy-more fitted. i like it a lot better than reebok. get to a store and try one on. any mall should have them, dicks, sports authority, etc.

Now, my chest is bigger than my stomach/lower torso, so I can't speak to the fit for those who are more "round" but if you're in shape it will fit nice. I like my shirts to have a tighter fit.
That's my issue... even a 2x bunches when I lift my arms and is retarded big in the torso and sleeves

I prefer a solid fit, not too loose myself... I'm cool with a very close shoulder and chest cut.. but the numbers just pull the rest of the jersey with it.. even on the non-stitched they ride. It is too stiff of a material to have that close of a cut and be able to be active in. I will have to try to get a pic

These seem to work for lean but not built guys

The numbers on the back of the jerseys are really big on Madden 13. I had to look closer to see if the numbers had gold bordering.

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over

This is not news but it's the first I've heard about it. Goodell = The Grinch



New Orleans Saints running back Pierre Thomas has been fined $12,500 for a uniform violation and a touchdown celebration in which he placed a bow on a football and gave it to a fan during the Saints' win over the Atlanta Falcons. Pierre Thomas was fined $12,500 for his Christmas-themed celebration Monday night.

The fine for the celebration is $7,500. Thomas also violated NFL policies by wearing Christmas-themed green and red tape on his black and gold Saints uniform, and his fine for that is $5,000.

The Saints players wearing the red and green tape were not only fined, but told at halftime by the league that if they did not remove it, they could not play the second half.

Wow that has to be a marketing thing. The NFL can't afford to offend other religions I guess.

it's just a violation of uniform rules. all tape, wristbands, sleeves, shoes, etc. must be within the team's color scheme. that's all
