Giants should create a new jersey style for this team

SteelGiant : 5/2/2021 1:13 pm
Watching this team rebuild before my eyes wishes that the Giants would change their jersey style to give this new team a new image on the outside as much as their style is changing as an organization.

I do not watch a ton of college football but after watching so many Toney highlights it made me notice one of his jerseys that I really like.

I think the Giants should make this uniform with Giants blue that is a darker shade with their red instead of the orange but I like the stripes over the shoulders.

I'm reluctant to change the current unis, which are so rooted ...

... in Giants tradition.

But I will say that Florida jersey/helmet combo is sweet.
Lol...

And when we draft someone from Oregon in the 1st next year we can do Giants Blue, Oregon jerseys too!

I think we need to see the '86 home uni's... wish they put Eli in those just 1x for Christ Sake, never happened tho
I'd be good with seeing a more creative "color rush" uniform.

(Is that still a thing?) as long as it looks and feels like a Giants uniform and not some weird fashion experiment, where they go "modern" for the sake of novelty. I guess that's sort of the whole point of color rush, though, isn't it? Which is why the Giants haven't really played along.

And I'd be happy to see a bolder take on the throwback uni. (Is that still a thing?) Like, something from the 1930s once in a while. I never liked the 80s V-neck and GIANTS, even at the time. But I like the "base" uniform they have now — basically a 50s-60s throwback look.

As for the Florida helmet/shoulder stripe, I don't have strong feelings about that one way or the other. A uni kind of either works or it doesn't. It's about the overall look.
I think the Giants are due for an update..

I wouldn’t do anything drastic though. Something like this:

Ooooh! Hurry!

There's a fashion show on at Giants Stadium.
I vote no even though I have no vote

I like the helmets and unis as they are...old school almost,
Like the Browns unis as well
keep it simple
They should go back to the 1986-1991 Uni's  
BBWreckingCrew : 5/2/2021 2:36 pm : link

They are the best uniform.
Just leave the

uniforms alone...
The Giants unis are all I’ve ever known since 1956.

Yes, they’ve varied theirs (i.e. LT era) at times, but essentially they’ve remained the same as have the Packers, for example..

We are BIG Blue
A big NO to stripes!

Remember this in the mid 70's?



All stripes do is bring back BAD memories!

I totally understand that sentiment. My only defense to that is I was not alive for those dark days. I also got a tattoo of that logo BEFORE we won the Eli SuperBowls. So for me that logo that does not have that stigma.
That actually wouldn't look too bad  
moespree : 5/2/2021 3:55 pm : link
Take that Florida uniform you posted make the blue the Giants shade of blue and make the orange stripes the Giants shade of red and it probably would look pretty good.

Wouldn't really be too drastic either.

This is 1975. The next year they changed to the “ GIANTS “ on the helmet with the move to NJ. The road pants were blue.

I like these. I'm up for a jersey update, not a jersey CHANGE though.

Back to the GIANTS helmet

Chris684 : 5/2/2021 5:19 pm : link
Easy enough...
No no no  
LakeGeorgeGiant : 5/2/2021 5:32 pm : link
"NY" logo is way better than "Giants" and the sleeve stripes and shoulders strips need to go away forever.
1980s  
Paulie Walnuts : 5/2/2021 5:40 pm : link
style or nothing Leave the shit alone, do the Yankees update? No
As opposed to a New York style???  
eli4life : 5/2/2021 5:45 pm : link
Badump bump 😂

I’d rather keep them how they are or go back to the mid 80’s version a little more often
Already in the works

I know somebody thinks that look is aces, but that's exactly what I mean by a garish novelty. You want to sell sweatshirts with that design? Sure. You want to put it on the players? GTFO.

Regarding the "Giants" logo, I don't like it, I like the NY much better, but I wouldn't have a problem with the NY on one side of the helmet and "Giants" on the other.

I would go go back and fourth with the 80’s-90’s GIANTS look and the current ny look. Alternate every 15 or so years between each style.
Never liked the GIANTS helmets  
Ike#88 : 5/2/2021 6:42 pm : link
the uniforms won't matter when we start winning again. Keep the traditional look for home games. Blue jersey's and grey pants. I did like the all whites for road games as opposed to the red numbers grey pants.

That's trash unless we're joining the XFL!

Change back to having "Giants" on the helmets and call it a day. The Florida uni in the OPs comment it terrible too! Blue bloods of a sport shouldn't do this crap. Drives me crazy when Pitt and GB wear those horrible striped unis. Save the merchandise ploys for teams who don't win SBs!
