They look better with normal lighting as opposed to whatever that video was. Still wrong.

Nope, still look awful. Poor Ken has to shill for this crappy jersey probably after the organization saw all the negative feedback. It’s literally 90/10 negative comments on the official Twitter account. The comparison to the Chicago jersey makes it 10x worse.

Looks like something off of Aliexpress for 30 bucks.

We’re not the Blackhawks. No thanks

Looks like I’m apart of the 1% that like them lol

I am so thoroughly disappointed with these reverse retro jerseys. It’s almost impressive how disappointed I am. The worst part? So many of the other 31 teams were awarded gorgeous, nostalgic renditions of their favorite team’s past jerseys. As loyal fans of an original-six team that has been a tire fire for the last ~7 years, what do we receive? A motherfucking warm-up jersey last year and this grotesque excuse of a barber pole jersey this year.
What the fuck.
The creation of Detroit’s reverse retro jerseys (this year and last year) should have been as simple as the coloring assignments you received as homework in kindergarten:
– Red version of the ‘09 jersey
– White version of the ‘13 jersey
Instead, I find myself scratching my head at the raw audacity to release these sorry wastes of textiles. It’s like watching a person drive around the lowered train-crossing guardrails while the alarms are going off…EXCEPT Adidas was perfectly capable of creating gorgeous retros (e.g. LA, MN, PIT, and NYI to name a few). So it’s more comparable to watching a professional NASCAR or F-1 race car driver drive around those railroad-crossing guardrails.
I was entirely prepared to light $150 on fire for a red jersey with the old English “D”. What a fucking shame.

Wasn’t the whole point of RR inverted/reversed secondary* colors? The black replacing the white is actually pretty nice in my mind. For those comparing it to the hawks or sens appear to be missing the whole point of the series. Not my favorite, but allayalls’ kneejerk reactions feels a lot like Twitter trolling. To each their own, I suppose
Lol downvote away homies. It’s a cute look

Ugliest red wings shirt yet

They look so cheap…did any thought go into the design besides « we have to add black »?

Literally any idiot could design this. Ugly.

Bad.

“Hey blackhawks, I forgot to do my homework can I look at yours?”
“Sure, but make sure it doesn’t look like you just copied it”
Roonuu
Ken is paid to say this looks good.

Immediately no
itsMurphDogg
Meh
Cark_Klent
Just because it looks fine in person does not mean that the design fits the team.

Just play hard and win.

I am ok with it. But I mean anything seems like an upgrade from last year

Looks like shit.

They’re just trying to out Jazz the new Jazz jerseys

Jesus the hostility and bitching in this thread. Personally I dig it. Don’t like it? Cool don’t buy one. Good lord

I can find a lot of other stuff in the world to be upset over rather than this.

Nope.

It’s hard to come up with an alternate when our primary jerseys look so good.
cabbagesquid
Ya know what I don’t mind it. It’ll look dope on the ice.
AuthorizedShitPoster
Anyone who wears that is a traitor for repping the wrong teams colors.

I hope everyone’s hate drives the price down the same way it did last time around.

Nope
abassassasssin
Sooo other teams get sweet ass retros but ours suck. Love that
SkeazyG
Wow this looks awful
kimbraa
I wish it was white rather than black and I’d love it. We don’t need a third color. Overall I’m going to save my final judgement until I see them with a full uniform, but they could have done much better very easily
JeremyEMT
I’d say they look great too if they signed my checks.
carlnard24
Freddy Kruger told me he thinks these are fire!

I can’t believe two years in a row Adidas screwed up the reverse retros again

Conspiracy theory: Detroit has deliberately designed controversial reverse retros so as to not threaten the popularity of our classic jersey.

I say most of the collection is pretty sick this time around and I’ll be buying one of these.
Well they look like Chicago or Ottawa should be wearing them
Terrible
Looks like a dollar stores attempt of making a redwings sweater
If they wanted to add a different color, why didn’t they add a soft yellow like our 1930-32 Detroit Falcons jerseys?

So very cringe. Not Ken, the sweater.
