Your thoughts on my NEW uniform design.

[Agent V]

This is going to get lost in Pioli (invisible deity bless him) madness, but here it goes.

I think it was about a year ago when I last attempted this. As a former graphic design student (now English major) I still dabble in the art, and the most difficult project I've ever attempted is the Kansas City Chiefs.

I WILL BE THE FIRST TO SAY: I DON'T THINK CHANGE IS NECESSARY, but it couldn't hurt, especially if done subtly and with NO BLACK.

I want to keep the blindingly awesome red as the center of the design, but integrate just enough yellow to make it consistent (the yellow, that is). I know most Chiefs fans don't want black, but I argue constantly with very talented sports design enthusiasts who insist me to add black just as the 49ers did, as an accent color.

Unnecessary, in my opinion, and I'm sticking to my guns here. We bleed red and gold. You don't add a rival team's color, even if it is just black. I've seen it done (with Chiefs uniform concepts), it's not horrible, but it isn't needed either.

I of course left the Lamar Hunt patch.

**** it. You probably aren't going to read all that anyway. Here you go:

Covered.

Actually, it's all Lee Majors fault. Upon my 5th birthday, I was taken to the local 5 and dime to pick out a present.

I wanted the Six Million Dollar Man, but they were out and had only GI Joe's. So my Dad said, "Do you want the Joe, or do you want to wait"?

I chose to wait.

That's some pretty serious ****in' dedication for a 5-year old on his birthday I believe.

Speaking as one who was vehemently opposed to your last year's design, I actually think this one is pretty good. I wouldn't mind it. It captures the essence of the "classic" Chiefs uni, while giving it a subtle touch of style--it's got the sense of a new pride. My only critique would be the Arrowhead on the helmet looks too big. I think it should be a little bigger than it currently is, but not that big. It's too much, too donkey-like.

Hate to piggyback on this thread, but seeing as I'm not yet allowed to start one of my own on this forum, I don't have a choice!

Here are my designs for the Chiefs uniforms of the next 50 years. I'd like to hear from as many of you as possible regarding what you think:

That KC on the side of the hip looks pretty gay.

That's easily the ugliest uniform I've EVER seen. ever.

Hmmm. I kind of like the Spidey look on the arms.

Did you bother to look at all of the designs? There were 3 distinctly different designs, two of which had away uniform renditions.

Also, like I just asked on the kc.com forum, if you're going to express a negative opinion in a "cool" way in order to make yourself feel better, please provide some reasoning to your opinion, as in why exactly you don't like it, so maybe I could try something else.

Constructive criticism. The kind that gets things done. Not, "tHat iz teh sToopidz!"

Thanks again.

[stlchiefs]

Sorry not a fan HTrayne. I'm not a fan of the different color shoulder pads that is the "new" thing in uniforms. Keep working on that queer eye, the fab five isn't ready for you yet.

[HTrayne]

Wow...tough crowd here...haha. Bunch of rotten pricks you all are!

Just kidding, I appreciate the feedback. I like them at least, lol.

I'm not a Chiefs fan, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

I saw all the designs - they are all essentially based on the same concept. I thought they all looked like they came out of a 90's video game invisioning what the future might look like. The black - just awful. That's not even a Chiefs color. It looks especially horrid with that color of Chiefs red. The curve on the butt - wow that's gay. Why would anyone want to see the giant lard asses of a football player accented like that? *shudder*

I suppose the shoulder pad areas look ok on the designs, though they look kind of busy. I personally prefer a more solid look to them.

As a Broncos fan, I hope that you guys adopt those uniforms, and that they sell like hotcakes.

Thank you for explaining your opinion. Being that you've revealed yourself to me as being a Broncos fan, I've now determined that your opinion doesn't matter! Ha!

Seriously, thanks for explaining.

[Taco John]

Honestly, I like your guys' uniforms now. I think the red pants look is gay, but outside that, I think you guys have sharp looking unis. Similarly, I hate the Broncos blue pants look. Man that's some ugly stuff.
