Full Scale Uniform Change | Bolts Reveal New Uniforms

[Kingcrimson]

They’ll look 1000x better on the field especially when you see them in contrast to the other team.

Very happy to see these changes. With these new uniforms, the Chargers will be the best looking team on the field week-in, week-out. Let's hope winning comes along for the ride.

Some additional thoughts and comments:

TV Numbers

• Why have them when they are already on the helmet? Thumbs up from me for removing the TV numbers from the shoulders and sleeves.
• While nostalgic for the numbers on the sleeves, they never looked right on certain players whenever the fabric got bunched up.
• Never liked the upside-down bolt on the 2007-2019. Oversizing the bolts left little space on shoulders and sleeves. Removing them visually simplifies the design. This is a case of addition through subtraction.

Color Rush

• In general, I'm not a fan of mono-colored uniforms, but the Navy and Royal Blue Color Rush uniforms are not bad and much better than other teams offerings.
• I wouldn't mind seeing matching yellow and white pants with the royal blue and navy tops.

Helmets

• Numbers on the sides of the helmets give the Chargers a unique look among other teams, much like the Steelers logo on just one side of the helmet.

Shoulder/Pants Lightning Bolts and Number Font

• Very nice. One nitpick would be the size of the white/yellow stroke. I'd make this a little thicker so that it distinguishes the bolt and numbers better against the jersey color.

No Chargers Wordmark on Jersey Front

• Again, addition by subtraction. One look at these uniforms, and you should know what team this is (2015-2019 Browns, I'm talking to you).
• Plus, I can imagine that the Chargers are still in San Diego, since it doesn't say LAC like the new Falcons uniforms.

Yellow Pants

• Very happy that there are Sunshine Gold pants to go alongside the white ones. I never got to see these in-person, but I always liked the look of the 1961-1964 Chargers.

Perfect 1st post. Welcome to the Blues

Really like both the color rush! Looks like everyone was right. There's 4 jersey colors and 4 pants colors (simple), and they mix a few to make 2 more combos. Got rid of navy blue but made it into a color rush, which almost looks black.

Not saying you should, but you really can just about mix and match the jerseys and pants to create throwbacks. Royal blue jersey plus yellow pants. Navy blue jersey plus white pants. Royal blue jersey and white pants.

You nailed it...why is it hidden behind a spoiler button? Weird. I do like how you switched that up, though.

Still, the overall collection is awesome...even my least favorite is pretty sharp...nice work Chargers...now it's on TT to fill those jerseys up with future stars this Thursday!!

Welcome to TPB!
Great to have you at the blues!

I don't know if the league will let them mix and match with color rush uni's and regular uni's.
Besides, why would they use Navy again when not playing a color rush game? I'd be ok if they dumped it altogether. PB is the main now.

Nuthin but love for DJ but the white n yellows aint it.Maybe powder blue bottoms woulda worked better.

Powder blue bottoms with the white tops would have ROCKED!

Love them all
my fav is the home with yellow pants
my second fav is the navy blue rush (wifes fav)

anyone still think we’re not drafting qb to sell jers—I mean, to lead our offense?

question.
are these powder blues the newer type of powder blue
these arent the alworth powder blues right?

As a follow-up to my first post (thanks for the welcomes, BTW!), another thing that I like about these uniforms is that they represent so much of the history of past Charger uniforms.

• Fan of the Dan Fouts era? Royal Blue Color Rush for you.
• Grew up watching Junior Seau, Leslie O'Neal, Ronnie Harmon, Stan Humphries, or LT's 2006 MVP season? Navy Color Rush, which also appeals to the 1960 team. If the one-helmet rule is scrapped in future seasons, we might even see a navy blue helmet return with the yellow and white lightning bolt.
• Pairing yellow or white pants with the Color Rush jerseys (as Tol mocked up) would showcase this even more. The Browns previous uniform revision in 2015 allowed for up to 9 combinations of jerseys and bottoms, all of which were really bad. With these Charger uniforms, there could be 10 with nary a bad one among the bunch!
• Been a Chargers fan since the beginning or reminiscing about the 1994 team that went to the Super Bowl (also the 75th anniversary of the NFL)? The Chargers wore the powder blues and whites a lot that season. They should have worn white on white against the Niners, who also wore their red throwbacks that season.

In video the color comes through better.
4:40 mark.....

I'm not sure about those rankings though. I think I would switch numbers 2 & 5.
