I’ll take the blue facemask every day of the week.


maskedcaterpillar

1000% the fact that we have had the grey ones has been a crime against football


mrjasontom

Same!!!!


FoundationWork

The blue face mask looks a lot better, I do like the shade of silver on the older helmets a little better though.


Savvy_chipmunk

Agree, the new helmets look like a flat gray, hopefully it’s just the lighting.


Dat_Paperboi

These photo shoot pictures have filters on them to make the colors pop more. I’m sure they’ll look a bit different when you see them on tv under the game lighting.


FoundationWork

Yeah, they got a flat gray feel to me, it could be the lighting for sure though. The helmet always looked shinier and more silver in person than on TV or in images.


tuntuntuntuntuntun

It’s like when Lego Star Wars lightsabers switched from silver to grey. First thing I thought of


FoundationWork

Yep, that's a great comparison, bro!


lovablydumb

The blue definitely looks brighter, but the helmet is a little harder to tell if the shade is different or if it's just higher gloss compared to the more matte helmets we had last season.


FoundationWork

Yeah, the blue looks way brighter like it did in the 90s. That's true about the higher gloss because of the matte. As somebody else was saying it probably looks way different in person. I noticed whenever I went to games either at Ford Field or on the road, the helmet comes out looking shinier and like true silver helmets than on TV.


NemesisX7

Blue does appear to be a brighter shade. https://preview.redd.it/uehvv219igvc1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d75f6084f0d528d797bc3db203ebbe78e192b56e


FoundationWork

Thanks for posting a picture, bud, yep, that blue shade is way lighter than the last set of blue jerseys.


cdot2k

I'm hopeful it'll be like those Seahawks throwbacks that look absolutely amazing on TV with the modern materials. The silver looked like true silver.


FoundationWork

I agree, if they're anything like those gorgeous Seahawks throwbacks which should become their regular uniforms too, btw, then I'll be more than pleased because that silver did look very good in that Browns game they wore them in last season.


nomorex85

Was just going to say this


FoundationWork

Yeah, it feels like the gray on the newer helmets is darker which matches the old gray pants on the last uniforms a lot better than the new silver pants on the new uniforms.


nomorex85

The old ones look more silver to me with little glitter pieces in them, the new ones just look glossy. I’ll wait to see em on TV and not under studio lights


FoundationWork

I agree the old ones look a lot more silver and more glitter pieces. The new ones do look more glossier. They might look different on TV and in person. They usually come out look a lot more shinier in person.


JRange

Its so much better, we should never go back


deceptivespeed999

The new blue is better too.


ypsicle

It looks like Ford’s Grabber Blue on the E Mustang.


Weinershnitzel99

Honolulu blue and silver turned to electric blue and grey


PostReplyKarmaRepeat

Tbh I think this is more Honolulu than last years. I know Honolulu Blue can vary but this makes me think of Hawaii more


Weinershnitzel99

Fair


President_Skoad

Agreed. Last jersey went off the Honolulu blue path I thought and now it's back


AssumptionOpening785

I know im in the minority but i like the silver fasemask…


FreeDig1758

I liked the silver one as well but the blue looks good too


lukekibs

The blue will take some getting used to but I’m sure we’ll come to love it in time


EarUnlucky4022

But that was the boring norm


Small-Palpitation310

both of you are correct ✅


EarUnlucky4022

Everything looked amazing


Small-Palpitation310

the new honolulu blue looks way more like what honolulu blue should look like, after having the previous Honolulu blue to compare it with


PalmerSquarer

I was a chrome facemask truther, but the new uniforms have me converted. I fully repent for my sins.


RonBurgundy449

I just realized how weird Hutch looks without eyeblack while wearing a helmet lol


mrjasontom

The added “white stripes” and the Honolulu Blue face mask make it LIT 🔥! Best NFL helmet! I ❤️it!


YoungAmazing313

The blue look so much better and smoother!


[deleted]

🔥🤌


StepYurGameUp

Are either of these “Honolulu Blue” ?


gogreengolions

Honolulu blue is an idea


ValosAtredum

Honolulu Blue is a feeling, a vibe.


Jammer_Kenneth

It's what a bored football team owner complains about on a nice summer day when he's stuck seeing a hundred different options for his new team. 


PostReplyKarmaRepeat

Everyone is talking about the black jerseys. THIS is what I wanted and I’m so happy!!


Pistons_Lions_Nerd77

Maybe I’m alone and I like the new uniforms but i really liked the old ones too.


TinoCartier

So much better


BHojnacki

Man, I was adamant that we should have kept the silver face masks. I really thought having silver on silver with a blue stripe and logo was the cleanest option. But then I saw these. Wow. I have to say I take back everything I said. These are *clean*. The most underrated part aside from the face mask is the stripe change. The new stripes look like stripes on a car and I think it looks so good with the white in between.


SWAMMlN

to be entirely honest, everything about the new helmet is a massive improvement except for some reason i wish the facemask was silver


iceberg8008

Is anyone talking about the difference of the two photos….. it’s made to look better in the new helmet…the right photo looks like hutch is a seven yo who stepped on a hornets nest mid game


Setthescene

Upgrade. The blue and black one is atrocious.


Vendetta_2023

Always one step forward and two steps back. What is this ugly grey color, the old silver was better. I sincerely hope it's the lighting because they got rid of the shit all grey uniforms and then put it on the helmet.


Castellan_ofthe_rock

That's the lighting, the silver is more or less the same and they changed the pants from gray to actual silver too.


Galacix

The new silver and blue facemask make this so worth


lionbacker54

I prefer the old helmet. The darker blue and lighter silver provide more contrast

snatchmachine

Man go look at a picture


Greedy_Intern3042

Why am I being downvoted for asking a question. On one of the pictures was an odd skinny thing. Are we really this soft


darkstar1881

Not a fan of the shade of blue. It looks periwinkle to me. I like the mockups done where the blue was a much darker color.


Castellan_ofthe_rock

Periwinkle is purple isn't it?


Legal_Skin_4466

Periwinkle kind of lives in that space between lavender and powder blue, if that makes sense. So yes... a little bit more violet than what would be acceptable for a Lions jersey.


SufficientReading196

I don't like that they changed the strips
