WHO knows if it'll have any impact on anything, but it's worth trying/signing no? (unless you are completely against a gold trim or any more gold at all)

Already signed and looking for more sigs! Looks way better and very much needed.


Just a question....

How can you "Keep" gold in the jersey if there was no gold in the jersey to start? There is actually more gold in THAT jersey (Nike Logo) than in the regular uniforms.

Pants are typically Tan, not gold....so these new Black uniforms have MORE gold in them than the normal ones.

Just a technicality. Don't personally like these gold outlines as they look too much like the late 90's/early 2000s numbers to me.

I'm actually wondering if the new uniforms end up looking pretty good with Gold shoes and gloves.

That's a really good idea, that uni looks way better.

The players designed this jersey, and the team allowed it. This is how its going to be.


They can make/edit alternates for future years. It's a done deal for this season, but there's no reason not to provide constructive feedback for new alts in the future (see also: more revenue for the team).

Unless the current black jerseys arent selling, they wont change a thing. They probably wont ever even see that petition.

Black is not a 49ers color, and is an ugly uniform choice regardless of gold outlining. They went through a whole process of designing these, and arent going to go back on their final approval just because a couple thousand fans want gold trim on the numbers.

If were going to start a petition, start one to bring back the Quentin font.

black has always been a very subtle part of our uniforms for a decent amount of time now. and we're talking about an edit. not stopping production. NFL needs at least 1 year notice.

lol what? It has? Dropshadows and logo outlines dont count.

Black is NOT a 49ers color.

Black is a neutral color that every team could use if they wanted. Its an accent common in most logos.

Every team likely sells black shirts with team logos.

Having a black circle around the logo doesnt make it a team color. The Chiefs arrowhead logo is outlined in black. Is that one of their colors too?

These jerseys were designed because the players' thought they looked "cool". So a bunch of 25 year old guys with little to no ties to the 49ers tradition before signing here thought these up.

Notice that Baalke and Tomsula avoided saying they liked them. When asked what they thought, they just talked about about how the players like them, and joked that the big guys will look thinner.

white is a neutral color too. your point is invalid there. black was once along the pant stripe of the niner uniform for many years. but then we went back to the white reminiscent of our glory uni's. it essentially replaced the white stripes you see on the pants today. again, not saying it was considered one of the "49er colors" but it was a color that was more emphasized with their ugly ass burgundy uniform scheme

Every single team has always had a white jersey. Your counterpoint isnt valid.

I understand that they used to have black stripes on their old pants and helmet, but that doesnt mean its an excuse to call it a team color. Even back then, nobody wouldve said our colors were red, gold, and black.

We got the old black accents from the drop shadows. In the mid-late 90's drop shadow numbers got popular. The stripe was just an accent that matched the numbers.

The new black just stems from the QB non-contact jersey, which was only black because normally non-contact jerseys are red, but we already wear red.

The point is, if black isnt your primary or your secondary color, you shouldnt be allowed to use it as a jersey. It just looks bad and generic. Even the Cards and Eagles are pushing it, but at least they dont really have major secondary colors.
