I won't say what I want to, but we all know why that is the design. Hideous.

I'll wait for the full roll out. I wonder if this will be the football version of a city connect jersey like baseball has.

It's looking like its real which is a shame. That is the ugliest **** I've seen in some time. Arena Football

While I do like the Houston rap culture/mantra, I do wish we'd lead with something else. Looks like a high school letterman's jacket logo.

Worse, from distance it looks very similar to the Titans current dark blue helmet.

Lions did a great job with their revamp. Classic

I'm not sure how many (if any) of you guys went to school in HISD, but that logo rings true of the style of a lot of high school stuff from back then - Yates, etc. - and I think it looks great. I'd rather have something unique than the cookie cutter red / white/ teal crap that half the league does.

That helmet is the living representation of the flat brim high front ugly azz hats that Houston teams make to appeal to our Paul wall/Bun B loving portion of the fan base

Tell me you're not familiar with the typical NFL fan without telling me you're not familiar with the typical NFL fan.

That is the Texans fan base.

Yeah I'm not mad at it at all. Hate all you want but the Texans aren't a classic team. Nothing about them is old school. Might as well step out.

Don't know that aspiring to look like HISD should be the goal of a professional football team.

I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a huge fan of the "H" logo, but Apparently it's just an alternate uniform… so EHH as long as there winning, they could wear trash bags for all I care…

MAN They really hyped up this rebrand for what looks like some relatively minor uni changes and an alternate logo. Regardless, still SOOOO excited for next season!!!!

Two rumored uniform schemes floating out there. I much prefer the 2nd one.

This is about to be the laughing stock of draft night. The H is horrible but that bull helmet looks like the Canadians or arena football

sure, but Houston is also a transplant city and this doesn't resonate with a lot of people. Wonder if they had any of the Luxe members as part of the panels

The home and away are fine. Weird that they wouldn't have a matching design for those. Battle red is good aside from that God awful helmet. My favorite is probably the H-town blue, but it does look a little too similar to the Titans.

They teased this out for way too long and there was way too much build up. Short of bringing the Oilers back, nothing they could have done would live up to the hype they have created. Would expect these will be very polarizing within the fanbase and will be largely dunked on by other fanbases.

It's not. It was created with the input of the people that actually buy merchandise.

If they wanted complaining without action, they would have come here first.

TexAgs - Texans uniforms are boring and outdated. I can't wait until they get new unis.

Also TexAgs - WTF?!?!?! These new uniforms are the ugliest shlt I've ever seen.

I'm starting to come around on the H. Just the fact that the team is generating some excitement is good. I loved the Kubiak era, but everything always seemed boring and businesslike.

Massive fail.

Titans rip off. You can use baby blue or navy, but when you use both and a bevel?? Geez

The H is waaaay overdone. Most brand go minimalist now and that thing is just too much. Looks like an air bushed hat from the mall or an independent rap album artwork.


I know they could have done worse in theory. But honestly, I can't imagine professionals doing worse than this. This one should have been roasted out of the meeting.

I get that it's not a lot of people's style, but those alts are going to be nation wide hits and be in 10 rap videos a year from now making the Texans a cult of fashion like the Raiders.

And yes, you don't have to like it, but from a marketing standpoint, it's genius.

Hmmmmm a bit of a optimistic reach there. We'll see

No way the red helmets are real. I think the colors are good overall and the Columbia blue is great. I hope they were smart enough to not make everything navy blue and Columbia blue, that's too much like Tennessee. Not sure why NFL teams now need a third helmet or a bunch of alternate uniforms when most of the current alternate uniforms are bad. Plus, they cant even get players to wear two toned or striped socks anymore, they all look like high school uniforms with their one color socks and untucked undershirts. Sloppy. The NFL needs to go back to having the players look like pros with uniforms from head to toe, instead of the sloppy mess we see on tv. Old man yelling at 1990's cloud, I know.

To be fair, one of the reasons I'm not a fan is because they basically didn't update the primary uniform at all except the shape of the numbers. Why did that require all the hype?

Lions did a fantastic job of their update recently.

And if that bull helmet is real, it's hilariously bad. Way worse than the H. I guarantee they're going to sell a metric ****ton of those H hats.
