    Well, the "slash" has no human characteristics, so it "personifies" nothing. I also see nothing that makes anyone look slick or fast.

    Simply put, that logo was a short lived mistake that needs to stay retired. The Jets logo should always be at least a derivative of the historically correct football shaped one.

    Unless, of course, a complete change brings in a mean looking fighter jet profile. Today, that would probably be deemed too militaristic.
     
  2. We can agree to disagree.

    Those Jet teams are what I grew up & fell in love with.To me, those are the REAL Jets. I know, I know..Super Bowl III and all.I get it. But I bet there are others around my age who fell in love early who feel the same way I do.

    Bottom line is, both logos are apart of the team's history.Good & bad. Both are in good taste & It'd be great to see BOTH utilized on one "new" uniform.

    If there was a "kind of like" button, I'd be clicking it.

    I'm in your boat here Kurt. I too fell in love with the late 80's /early 90's jets, since I'm 31. That is the logo and look that was there. That's why I'm all for it. That and quite honestly, it's less boring than what we have been wearing for the last 10-15 years. (I forget when exactly we switched over. I wanna say 98 but not sure). Not that we wear bad uniforms now. We still have one of the better ones in the league, but it's getting a bit stale and this is a solid change of pace imo.

    im usually not a switch the uniforms every 10 years guy but going back to the jets on the helmet would be an awesome move for me. the current uni is boring to me at this point and really doesnt pop in any way shape or form.

    i also think its tough to have a uniform with 2 colors and one of them being white, it doesnt give much room for accents.

    Whether the Weeb/Parcells Jet unis or the Kotite/Coslet 80's unis, one kind request: no green pants.

    A sleek, athletic Revis can pull off the all-green look. An offensive lineman on the other hand's going to look like a 300 lb. tomatillo.

    Lose the green pants, the bottom one (white pants) is so sick. I would be down for these unis in a heartbeat.

    I like our look for the past decade, its one of the better ones in the league. But I think we could use a bit of a change. I especially wish we had a very sick alternate, maybe black though i haven't seen anybody imagination pull it off for us, or even this particular green one. I also wish we could implement a fighter jet on the helmet, which I guess would call for a bit of a logo change as well.

    Darker colors are more slenderizing than white. If you're wanting to hide big fat asses, you need green pants, not white.

    Btw...does anyone know what happened to wearing any kind of throwbacks? I feel like the last time the wore them was in 2012. Think about it, we've never even seen Geno in gold and blue throwbacks.

    Even though I'm not a huge fan of them...why did they wear them about once a year at the start of the Rex era and then just abandon it. Anyone know if it's Woody's or the coaches decision or what?

    In all honesty, I want this team to wins some games again and be a yearly playoff contender. I don't care what they hell they wear at this point. The uniforms we have now will suddenly start to look better with wins.

    Hey, new to the forums and can't access pictures from my current computer, but what do you all think of the helmet Revis is holding in the Sports Illistrated cover?

    isnt it the same logo just bigger? and white on green vs green on white. gray facemasks have come to the point they annoy me at this point. it was a cool retro look for a little bit but now too many teams are doing it.
