Vol uniform/helmet design discussion (merged)

[Vol4life25]

Silver helmet with mat black T with all white Uni with Mat black numbers.

For one game......would look sick. I say we wear it for the oregon game. (Show them Tennessee Swagger)

 

[Maxxgas]

They have been changed before. The shape of the T has evolved over time. Fulmer went with a wider orange stripe, which I like alot. The face masks were changed from gray to white. I think I would have to see it up close to decide. There is nothing in the picture that could not be changed back in a couple of minutes.

I dont care what anybody says, the black and orange uni's we wore a few year back were sweety as he$$

White helmets, black jerseys, orange pants... turrible. Looking like indian candy corn is not sweet.

Looked like they were dressed by a blind person.

Hey! You just figured out what's wrong with the internets. :good!:

I believe the zone has had a positive influence on you.

Jmho, tifwiw, gbo.

 

[WoodsmanVol]

I'd like to see the helmet remain fundamentally the same. Certainly without the zipper look in the center. But perhaps checkerboarding the Power T.

 

[pismonque]

I would like to see a pearlescent white or matte white finish on the helmet with an orange grill and no checkerboard stripe. Put the checkerboard along the sides of the jersey.

You could do a matte/gloss checkerboard on the white.

 

[pismonque]

I think helmet designs should be culturally appropriate. Ours should have flames on the front, some random swirly pinstriping on the back, a couple odd spots of bad-bondo waviness and one whole section that is just primer. And maybe green lights in the earholes.

maybe we could get something awesome like this

that would be so sick. It would totally "sell" the program with the recruits.

 

[YorkVol]

Ok, there were no checkerboards in the endzones, so let's take those away. Let's not open the T and have the team run through it. Yeah, good argument about tradition.

Ok, where did I argue about anything?

Why not plaster a bunch of decals ala NASCAR?

 

[theFallGuy]

He changes a couple things on the helmet and we are now comparing it to what Maryland did?

Lol.

Checkerboard down the center = ugly

Maryland helmet = ugly

see the correlation? try to keep up

 

[CleVOLander]

Eh, got to tinkering around and figured I'd toss these out there for shiggles. I can alter anything if anyone is curious to see something. After playing with this and all, I see how Oregon ends up with 1000 variations.

 

[theFallGuy]

The old helmets are beautifully simple. I dig them.

I honestly wouldn't mind going back to all white helmets with an orange stripe.

 

[Unknown Muppet]

Jmho, tifwiw, gbo.

Definitively, sir. Definitively.

 

[Unknown Muppet]

We should do something like this - except throw smokey's head instead of the Indian Chief.

:horse:

 

[VolsRule]

why shouldn't things be changed every now and then??

 

[3rdDown4What?]

They can wear orange TuTu's as long as they win...

Yea...try the one on the left with "Black Pants" but keep the checkerboard stripe on the side and orange shirt. I like that.

I would substitute the word "hideous." Then, we would be in total agreement.

Now you are sounding eerily similar to my major professor, a cultural anthropologist at UT, who once described Tennessee as the "Camaro capitol of the world."

 

[CleVOLander]

Like this?:

Edit: Yeah I know, need to fix my orange color some, coming out sorta yellowish....but y'all get the point. : )>

I think UT should dump Adidas and go with Ralph Lauren.

If we ever wore something like that, I may honestly just not watch the game. Wow. lol
