I love the patches on the jersey. Not sure why people hate them.

[RamsSince1969]

Before the Rams relocated back to Los Angeles, the Ronald Reagan Library had an exhibit about the history of football in L.A.. This must have been from about 2012? It would be fun to see the newest version up there along side. Maybe it will there when they have the exhibit in 2112!
I have similar Dickerson home and away jerseys and also a Jack Youngblood home jersey.

Fuck, I got 4 more years of crying about the uniforms and the Logos.

I just opened my closet and saw this tee shirt I bought at the last game. Very interesting seeing the gradient! Didn't make the connection. Probably coincidence but still potentially a cool lil easter egg! Colors are the old but you get my meaning.....

I was thinking about Jerseys in the 80’s over here when it really took off. They used to make them with the teams names on the front. I did a bit of googling and found this ad, you can see what I mean. Doesn’t show the Rams one but I had that with 29 on obviously.

I also found this as well. Anyone have a pair? My Brother did, I went for some Roos instead as endorsed by Walter Payton.

Sorry slightly off topic but I was getting nostalgic earlier, got plenty of time to think about things as you know.

You made me curious if KangaROOS were still around...

KangaRoos - Wikipedia

en.m.wikipedia.org

KangaROOS were designed by American architect and jogging enthusiast Bob Gamm. Gamm was a running enthusiast who would go ten kilometers a day, but preferred light athletic clothes without pockets. He designed the sneakers for his own personal use as a place to store his keys and money, then marketed them effectively. His marketing design was successful, leading to sales in excess of 700,000 pairs a month by the early 1980s.[1]

Further refinements on the original design led to several significant innovations in athletic footwear. One such innovation, the Dynacoil, was a patented energy release system designed in the mid-1980s by former Nike designer Ray Tonkel and consultant Al Gross and tested by NASA.[2] Many other athletic shoe manufacturers would later incorporate similar designs into their shoes. In the early- to mid-1980s many USA professional athletes wore ROOS football and baseball shoes as well as shoes for running and training.

Notables included Clyde Drexler (Basketball), Walter Payton, O.J. Anderson, William (the Fridge) Perry (football), Ozzie Smith, Vince Coleman and Ron Darling (baseball), and Kenyan track stars (running).[3]

There was a faddish dimension to the shoes, which became very popular among both casual athletes and American schoolchildren. Gamm himself remained committed to KangaROOS as serious athletic footwear, and in 1985 he worked with a 10,000-square-meter testing facility called the KangaROOS Laboratory & Gymnasium at the University of Illinois. This allowed for refinement and development of the sneakers for many different sports, including American football, basketball, hockey, tennis, and track and field.

By the end of the 1980s, the popularity of the sneakers was on the decline, executives departed the company and KangaROOS were quietly withdrawn from the market. However, nostalgia, combined with an appreciation both of the shoe's athletic design and its ubiquitous pocket, led to a reappearance of the shoe in the late 1990s.

Today, KangaROOS are sold in over sixty countries worldwide.[4] Recent years have witnessed expansion through Central and South America as well as Asia.

The footwear moved its strategic focus from performance sports to sports lifestyle footwear, most still bearing the zippered pocket on the side. Some, however, now have a side pouch up on the ankle, which can hold a small wallet.

Sure POPS!

Can’t wait to see them on the field. The video released where Kupp got a helmet out of the kitchen... Woods playing basketball... those are unnatural situations and I don’t think helped with the visuals.

I am now regretting not going to the last game at the Coliseum. All the merch I’ve seen from it is incredible.

I got 2 shirts, full price for the special game gear. I waited in line for 1.5 hours. Overall worth it but I missed some tailgate fun and the first 4 mins of the game which I NEVER do.

Proper fan is @LARams_1963!!

Keep looking at the uniforms. I think you will see a relatively bold move to bring them forward (e.g. segmented horn , bone color) but holding on to tradition (e.g. blue and yellow, the horns). The real test will be what they look like in a game but I am optimistic.

Yeah that's what turned me off to them. That lemon yellow just isn't strong enough to contrast from the white, among other things. I hope they don't look that silly on the field.

Also Woods could probably be posted in the booty thread, boy's been doing his squats.

 

[IowaRam]

these would be cool , next year maybe ?

Never thought I'd say this being a die hard Rams fan since 1973 and absolutely loving the Ram's uniforms and helmets from the get go, but I'm actually really digging the new uniforms, and surprisingly the helmets look pretty bad ass, horns look thicker, more modern and tougher IMO!

I was showing my girlfriend the video and her only response to the whole thing was "whose butt was that?"

Okay, I want this, I want an all yellow version, and I want a bone grey helmet with blue horns for the bone jersey.
