Nike takes over as the company in charge of uniforms/shoes/gloves etc.. for the 2012 football season. They succeed Reebok who has been the supplier for a few years now.

Looking up on Uni Watch, they (Uniwatch) propose the "Nike Pro Combat series" for the NFL teams.

Take a look and see what you think:

I'm a little scared to see what Nike will come up with. The NFL is pretty traditional though, so I think they will reign in Nike a little. Plus at the end of the day, teams will have the ultimate say on uniforms.

These are different then the ones posted months ago. These are uniwatch's versions which are pretty damn good. (Except Tampa Bay)

This is old news. Either way, those jerseys are horrendous.

Those are all fake and proposed by him.

The ones that came out a few months ago are fake as well.

Amazing the gullibleness of some people on the interwebz. Nike has not come out and given any future concept for NFL uniforms.

These came out on January 9th 2011, sorry if that is "old news" to some of you....

Yes those ones are made up by the guy who runs that website, BUT I think their are some pretty damn good uniforms that he "proposes".

Of course nothing is official until Nike comes out with their proposals. Atleast those ones are realistic and not the Oregon version of the uniform. He keeps it simple, classic, but modern as well.

What really makes me laugh is the wannabe moderators that think they need to come on every single thread and give their 2 cents about the topic. IF you really could care less and think it's old news why come on here and post? Makes no sense, but hey more power to ya!

Did you even read the first post? I said that Uniwatch, a blog site, "proposed" the nike pro combat series for the NFL teams and then asked what you guys thought about those proposed unis.


Amazing the illiteracy of some of the posters on this site.

They're just simply correcting you in that these aren't official nike uniform propositions, more just one guy's photoshop jobs he did.

These are vastly better than the horse abortions that were floating around a few months ago. These are essentially the current uniforms updated with the pro combat equipment. The only differences I noticed were for Philly and Tampa Bay and I thought both of them were better than their current unis.

He took the blueish-silver color of Dallas' pants away too.

These are probably the original one's that I agree are god awful!

I like the Uniwatch version a lot better. Like I said simple, classic, but also modern.

We'll see which side Nike wants to go with.

I thought the falcons uni was nice too. I like the red helmets.
They mixed their old school with the new and turned out nice.

Same here. I believe, I read somewhere, that they are going back to them when Nike takes over. Which is why all of these samples have those colors.
