Sharks unveil new home and away uniforms

This is how they could've been tweaked, without looking unfinished:

Wow, ****ing love it! Although, I'd probably just have the striping at the bottom of the home jersey and then have teal again underneath. I think the white bottom would look kind of weird with full equipment.

looks like some kid made it in his basement with a teal long sleeve, an iron and some transferable printer paper

It's kind of funny that when the Edge jerseys were introduced in 2007, only 9 teams had traditional horizontal stripes on the bottom of their primary jerseys (all of the original 6 teams except Toronto, plus Carolina, New Jersey, San Jose, and Vancouver).

At the time, teams like Edmonton, Florida, and Toronto were criticized for having jerseys that looked incomplete, like practice jerseys, or even like pajamas.

Since then, many of the other teams (Oilers, Islanders, Leafs, Flyers, etc) have changed to more traditional stripes, and now the Sharks are going the other way.


One thing that may work better for the Sharks is that their dark jersey is a different colour from their pants, so that should break up the pajama effect that the Leafs and Oilers had with uninterrupted blue.

I guess if you really like Samsung TV's.... A LOT... it makes sense.

These look amazing imo. Love the teal.

First look I thought they looked ok, and I liked the simplicity.

Then when I saw it on the person, I thought it looked far to much like a practice jersey.

Without the bottom striping they now have room to put a huge SAN JOSE across the bottom. It would have completed the look while adding a touch of class, much like the current Canucks jersey *giggles*

There still a good jersey I think it would be a lot better if there was something on the bottom

Is it just me or is the Sharks logo place in the same area as the Canes Logo on their jersey? Around the Chest area and not in the middle of the Jersey?

Love jersey threads. I'm not a huge jersey guy myself but I love listening and reading people react to jerseys. The detail people go into when dissecting these things are hilarious. The striping, the thread, the whatever.

Love the passion, just can't get on board personally. To me, it's just a shirt.

That's a passive-aggrssive post. Why don't you just say "I'm smarter than you because I find jersey aesthetics trivial."

I didn't read it that way it all. SOMEONE is being a little sensitive about their love of fashion...

Personally I like having numbers visible from many angles.

Heck, I'm kinda waiting for the day when my TV asks me if I want player name graphics on the live feed, EA sports style. Shouldn't take too long.

These are barely better than the Oilers practice jersies were, and only then because they completed the striping around the arms.

Pretty lame, but at least given how the Sharks operate, they'll probably change it up again in about 18 months.

Didn't mean it like that at all. Just not a jersey guy but I really do enjoy reading these threads.

They aren't far off from the Coyotes current design, except teal vs red.

I really hope that we do get more to our Arizona Coyotes possible re-design. Add an additional color, shoulder yoke, ect.

These Sharks uni's are boring but nice.

I'm actually excited for a redesign on the Coyotes. They have a real chance here to kind of "restart" the whole franchise with a new name, updated logo, new jerseys. I don't know, I think it could be really good for the team.

The Sharks jersey looks more like a long sleeved NFL jersey now.
