Uniforms looked awesome--couldn't make it to the game but the Howard uniform numbers looked really faint on tv. Could people actually read the numbers on their jerseys from the stands?
 
Maybe a tweak or two to a couple of the numbers. But they look like Rutgers now, now Western Kentucky or Fresno State.
 
Not a fan of them either and also heard many others saying the same. Just way too plain and blah. Last year's uniforms were awesome- just had to fix up the color and number Issue of the home battle scar uni's. I would even rather the Greg Schiano era "plain" uniforms vs what we have now. Those were awesome too.

But whatever .. We can look a hell of a lot better winning games and do it in pajamas for all I care. Just win.
 
It was nice for the first time in a few years to be able to see the numbers and names on the uniforms and knowing who was on the field.

We look like a BigTen team.
Don't care much about uniforms - do care about being able to see the numbers - so I guess I like the new uniforms, lol...

Obviously whether one likes the new uniforms is a matter of personal taste with no right or wrong answer. A more objective question is whether the new uniforms have achieved the objective which Ash had previously stated - a more traditional look, yet distinctively Rutgers. My opinion on that is a strong yes.

Plus, you can see the numbers!
 
I don't like the font of the numbers but love that I could read them on TV. Color scheme was fine with me.
 
I love them! But my personal taste in old school looking uniforms with some modern touches, which is just what they are.

The last uniforms went to far in the modern direction for my taste.

Our helmets are freaking ugly.... the black and white can stay but the red with the block R has got to go.

agree 100%. Nice and clean look is a million times better than the home jerseys last year
 
really like the jersey. Simple and legible. Big R on the helmet. Last version of jerseys were hideous.
 
I would appreciate if every fan who purchased the jerseys between the 2012 and 2015 seasons just threw them in an incinerator. They were horrific and because of them I literally missed 4 years of players performing because I had no idea who was playing.

Yup - don't like them. Something is missing can't put my finger on it - maybe the numbers are too big or the font.

Agree with the bolded.

The font is just off.

Other than that I agree with the two posts below:

You can read the numbers and color is good but font of numbers is not great.

Bit meh.
 
What's not to like?

I'd like to see the pants stripe (dual) and the should stripe (single) match. Pick one. And I'd lie older block-style numbers. Do the gloves make a Block R? Looks like it. I guess I miss the R on the pants... I think we were out front on that design.

The color is a huge improvement. That's about it.

I was in Scarlet Fever a couple of weeks ago. They had an old jersey and a new jersey side by side. The color is EXACTLY the same. I was surprised myself. The numbers and the battle scars are creating a color illusion.

Think the issue is the shoulder/sleeve area - I'd get rid of this checkerboard pattern on the sleeve and white stripe on the shoulder and replace them with either TV numbers on the shoulders with 2 horizontal white stripes on the sleeve or TV numbers on the shoulder and a white border on the edge of the sleeve.

But get rid of the checkerboard pattern on the sleeve.
imo

I like our unis, but I would have signed up for something like this.

It's not a checkerboard pattern.
It's a chainmail pattern, you know, because we are Knights.

I'd like numbers and the chainmail on the shoulders.
 
Speaking of discounted children's clothes at Walmart. What did Walmart and Michael Jackson have in common? Boys' shorts half off.
 
Chainmail/ email it looks like shit & it's way to subtle - your probably 1 in a 1,000 people who knew that..but give you credit for knowing it!

There is too little of it on the uni to notice it - so get rid of it or make it more prominent.

As most on the site would say, "I'm glad those kids got off my lawn."[roll]
