It's Photoshop of this:

They have kept things tight so far. Even the shadow image we've seen is a darkened copy of the regular uni.

The promo piece: http://cdn.row27.com/assets/vikings/201 ... ground.jpg

the original: http://sportscracklepop.com/wp-content/ ... jersey.jpg

Come to think of it the one above is probably one of many Photoshop templates for football players that are around, made up for Rutgers on one image and this thing on the other.

Can't anyone keep a secret these days? Either way, if so, they would be decent.

Not a big fan. Hopefully they keep it simple. I like the helmet though!

That's along the lines of what I would expect. I don't expect a full return to the great uniforms of old, but at least that design eliminates the short curved horn on the pants, the oddball side panels on the jerseys, and the gold collars of last year. I don't mind the gray pants, but the purple looks like something from a Mardi Gras parade. Appears to be the same helmet decal from the recent unis.

I'm actually surprised the "new uniforms" are getting talked about so much.

I care more about what the Vikings look like on the field as far as play more than I care about what they look like as far as appearance. Yeesh.

I'm sure the Vikes will come out and look sexy! They always do! I'm not too worried about it.

Nike needs to fine tune Reeboks 1970's throwbacks from a few years ago. Those unis are perfect. They could throw a matte finish on the helmet and keep the grey face mask or switch it out for a black one.

Not sure if this means anything, but last year I searched high and low for a throwback Vikings jersey. I couldn't find any old Reebok ones and I asked a Nike rep. if Nike would be making a 70's style jersey. He smiled and told me to wait until this year. Now, he could just be talking about a simple throwback they wear a few times a year or maybe he was talking about the new design. The rep I spoke to was a golf apparel rep, but I received the same response when I was at the Nike store in the MOA.

Anyways, doesent matter what uni they wear, SKOL VIKES!

Agree 100%. As long as they aren't as bad as Seattle's!

I'm not sure why that merits a "yeesh". It's the offseason!

I care more about how the team performs than what they're wearing but their uniforms are part of their appeal (they have the coolest helmets in football) and the more visually-oriented people are, the more this stuff makes a difference to them. After all, people buy and wear the jerseys so naturally they want them to look cool.

Agreed-For the most part FA is over. I haven't heard of any updates on Winfield and the draft is weeks away. So aside from potential draft picks, what new or breaking news is there to talk about?

So based on that picture, the helmet looks almost identical, nothing about it clarifies " tough and strong" or whatever JA said, unless that helmet is a matte finish... JMO

A matte finish would be cool, I really like the Gopher's helmets.

Actually REAL horns coming out of them would give them an advantage, don't you think? :D
