The Jets new uniforms have been leaked. Well, here they are folks. One day before the team officially reveals them to the world, the New York Jets new uniforms have allegedly been leaked. While it isn't 100 percent certain, it appears very likely that these are the new uni's. Check out this quick podcast reaction to the new jersey's and helmets! While nothing will top the classic look the Jets have worn the previous 20-years, an homage to their lone Super Bowl season of 1968, these new uniforms are not bad. Certainly for Nike standards anyway. The first thing that stands out is the green is indeed a lighter shade compared to its predecessor, and it does harken back slightly to the look of the 1980s and 1990s. The logo seems to be more divisive. A lot of people hate it, but it is a slight update of their current logo. The NY is no longer behind the word mark Jets, instead New York is spelled out across the top, and the football is pushed up into the E and T in Jets. It's an update, not too dramatic, but still familiar. We like it. On the helmet just the word Jets and a football appear splashed across a kelly green helmet. New York is spelled out across the top of the jersey, which has become a staple of Nike jersey's of late. The Jets are indeed getting the black jersey, which will be accompanied by black pants and socks, and will likely be used as a color rush design for prime time games (when the Jets actually are in prime time). What are other people saying? Well, it's interesting to say the least; people are certainly divided. This #Jets uniform leak better not be real or I'm hurling myself off a building — Ricco Machado-Torres (@TorresRicco) April 3, 2019 I about threw up when I saw the Jets uniform leak...?????? — Brendan Kuhn (@b_kuhn_2) April 3, 2019 Overall it is not a terrible look. It is clean and sleek. Compared to the radical uniforms we have seen in recent years i.e. Seattle, Tampa Bay, Miami, Cleveland, this new uniform combination is actually playing it safe.<doc-sep>Twitter.com Supposedly leaked images of the Jets new uniforms created quite a stir on Wednesday, with some arguing that the photo real and others saying it’s not. (If it’s a fake, it’s very impressive.) With the official unveiling coming on Thursday, current indications are that they uniforms are indeed the genuine article. Of clothing. That the Jets will be wearing in 2019 and beyond. It’s unclear whether the leak came from the Jets, the league office, or Nike. And it’s not the first time that new uniforms made their way to the public eye before the official unveiling. Said official unveiling is coming on Thursday. Jets fans who don’t like the uniforms inspired by the 1978-97 model can only hope that it’s fake.<doc-sep>The New York Jets unveiled their new uniforms Thursday night at an event in New York City that lasted a painful 26 minutes until viewers got to see the uniforms. And after all that wait… they were indeed the ones that were leaked before the event on Wednesday. Jets president Neal Glat spoke before the uniforms were unveiled and said the colors are “Gotham Green,” “Spotlight White,” and “Stealth Black” and they should give the team a strong home-field advantage. I’m not sure how that’s possible, but hey, you do you Jets. The Jets also had some guy sing a terrible song before the uniforms were unveiled and boy was that awkward. Let’s first take a look at the new Jets uniforms: The beginning of a new legacy.#TakeFlight pic.twitter.com/oaGidDB65B — New York Jets (@nyjets) April 4, 2019 They were the leaked ones: These apparently leaked Jets uniforms look like an Arena league team pic.twitter.com/xAGcPDYDxr — Matt Skraby (@MattSkraby) April 3, 2019 And NFL fans had fun with them: I thought the AAF ended — Broccoli Knob (@broccoliknob) April 5, 2019 Love to cheer on the Texas State Armadillos pic.twitter.com/heP1mhfEMf — addumb (@nipple_nuts) April 5, 2019 This does to the eyes what LeVeon Bell's rapping does to ears. — SportsPickle (@sportspickle) April 5, 2019 Seriously though did a 12 year old design these in madden franchise mode — Alex (@apsf92) April 5, 2019 Leveon when he sees what he has to wear now pic.twitter.com/ZhQ030CGau — Football Insiders (@the_out_route) April 5, 2019 Wish they looked like these. pic.twitter.com/zOGz3AXCxG — Austin Grant (@AustinPlanet) April 4, 2019 They've played like a high school team long enough. Might as well dress like one. — Tim Clark (@timclark89) April 5, 2019 It's not too late for Nike to claim it was a prank and burn down the warehouse where all of these are stored, is it? — TarHeelGooner (@LABMcKay) April 5, 2019 Here are all the #Jets players who modeled tonight in all three new uniforms. They’re on stage, soaking it up. pic.twitter.com/NVS79stzvl — Darryl Slater (@DarrylSlater) April 5, 2019<doc-sep>
The Jets are scheduled to unveil their new uniforms tomorrow night. New uniforms have been a subject of discussion in the fanbase for years. Since the team officially announced a redesign was coming last year, the internet has been flooded with rumors and Photoshop hoaxes. Today we had another supposed internet leak of new uniforms. Looks like these might be the #JetsNewUnis pic.twitter.com/VmgoFupRLl — The Jet Take (@TheJetTake) April 3, 2019 It didn’t seem that different from all of the fake leaks of the past year. That is until a beat writer reported these actually are the new uniforms. Trying to figure out whoever first leaked this photo, but I’m told these are it #Jets https://t.co/CR3NE9uonj — Connor Hughes (@Connor_J_Hughes) April 3, 2019 Brian Costello didn’t provide total confirmation, but seems to believe this is accurate. Not 100 percent sure, but this leak of the Jets uniforms looks legit to me. A complete redesign of the uniform. The new logo is not a total redesign, just a refresh. That was always Jets' intent. https://t.co/AlK1e2MqJR via @nypostsports — Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) April 3, 2019 Of course your views on uniforms are highly subjective. Nobody is truly right or wrong. It is purely opinion. I personally am old school when it comes to uniforms. I think less is more, and I like classic, clean looks like the Yankees have. I’m personally not a fan of looks like this. I don’t like the stripes or the “New York” in the front. I think this look is too busy. It’s the type of thing you’d get from a group of executives who talk in nothing but cliches and buzzwords sitting in a board room. “Big data says this is the kind of look that will give our brand synergy and attract millennials in this space.” There was also a big part of me that liked the idea the team was wearing something similar to what was worn in the Namath years, the most glorious period in franchise history. We will have to wait and see until tomorrow to know for sure. What do you think?
