Hey Ugly Thirds crew! As a Flyers fan, I’m more than aware that a jersey change isn’t going to fix our many woes. But I have to say..I’ve never been a fan of our previous jerseys. Although there’s not too many changes, I really dig these a lot.
I dont mind the rebrand. However, this proves one thing about adidas and fanatics in my opinion: if teams are willing to "rebrand" this late into the adidas contract and it has already been said that fanatics will use the same factory as adidas for their shirts, it does not look like much will change regarsing the jerseys and therefore, the fuss created was sort of pointless. Just my opinion, but yeah..
wow!! Well the 'design team' that came up with these new jerseys must be completely exhausted after all of their hard work, it must have taken them SO long to think of a slightly darker shade of orange and a slightly different template resurrected from the 1990's. yawn……
As a Flyers fan, I actually quite like these jerseys. I never liked the 60s throwbacks that they have been using for the past decade or so. The more I look at the new ones the more I like them. They are simple and i do wish they had the black line, but they still look good.
Cant stand the 3rd jersey. I wish they just made a black version of the new style with orange shoulders.
Flyers fans like myself were sick of the dayglo orange. The return to burnt orange is sigh of relief. Yes, it's not a major overhaul, but that's fine! I wish they would've dropped the alt colored nameplate on the back, though. The solid colored numbers on the sleeve are starting to look cool to me.
FYI. They could only change the home and away. They couldn’t change the black one. At the STH event last night they told us they are working on a new black 3rd jersey.
It looks better than the highlighter orange but they should have just gone full 80s/90s. The sleeves look weird without the black trim, the numbers on the sleeve look bad, and the nameplate thing has been played out at this point. It was novel in 2008 when they brought it back but feels dumb now.
Hey Guys, Another great video. As a Philadelphia resident and a Flyers fan, We haven't had good uniforms since 2007 except a couple special uniforms.(Reverse Retro & Winter Classics) I wasn't a fan of the previous uniforms, but these might be just as bad. These new uniforms could be so much better with a couple tweaks. Why is there no outline on the sleeve numbers, it looks very strange to me. I'm also just not a fan of the different color nameplates. It is very distracting and looks bad in my opinion. I thought what they did with Reverse Retro 1 was very good and they should have just made that the new primary jersey. The black jersey sucked before and only got worse with the addition of the ad. Overall I am quite disappointed with the uniforms and I still am.
I just came up with a prediction. The flyers will wear these jerseys for 2 or 3 years or so. They will finally get a #1 or #2 pick in like '25 or '26. Once they get a "can't miss" future star they will go full 90s look.
The original blood orange jersey from the 60's, 70's and early 80's was the best. Hard to believe the Flyers have become so irrelevant but that's what happens when the team sucks and the organization goes corporate WOKE.
I’m not a fan of those current black third jerseys on TV, but I have one with no name or number and it’s decent enough in real life without the weird number colouring. With their stadium series game coming up I imagine they’ll resurrect some iteration of the black jersey you pointed out here.
As for the new jerseys, I think they’re better than the recent set in little ways. The orange is better, it’s a little bit of a bolder, cleaner look. But you’re right- I would have marketed this as an “update” or “refresh” instead of “hey wow we’re getting new jerseys!”
Will I buy one?
I won’t rush to get one, but it would be nice to add to my collection. Unless the add comes with it, in which case no chance I’m spending money on that.
As a bruins fan idk why the “Lindros era” is such a big deal. I’m saying as a bruins fan because I went to Wells Fargo and almost got into four fights but no one wanted it🤷♂️ just keep the jerseys how they were but change the pylon orange to burnt orange. I’m not living or from Philly but damn keep the broad street bully’s uniform but put them back to the real Orange instead of looking like traffic cones it’s really not that hard.

I don't mind the newish jerseys I kinda like them
They should’ve done a minor tweak to their RR 1.0 and you have a winner!

This is what I like to call a popcorn fart.

Do NOT use the word RETOOL around a Flyers fan. Morons.
