The NFL uniforms that Nike has given football fans aren’t exactly the things many thought they’d be. Sure, there are the color rush uniforms that are a little bit wild because of the influx of bright shades, but, c’mon, when The Swoosh took over the rights to design NFL uniforms a couple years ago, many thought we’d see wild stuff that college football teams typically get — like all those Oregon Ducks alternates. Sadly, that hasn’t been the case.
While Nike hasn’t done much to really spice up the NFL uniforms lately, one fan and talented designer decided to put the onus on him or herself, putting together reimagined NFL uniforms for every single team in the league. The result? Absolute fire, as a company called Ultimate Effects whipped up these badass designs. Take a look at each division below, via Ultimate Effects’ Instagram page.

Not sure why the NFC West has yet to have some conceptual design, but maybe those are coming. Either way, all of these mockups are fantastic, and really up the ante when compared to the current NFL uniforms teams are wearing.
Now, I know that the current NFL uniforms probably aren’t going anywhere anytime soon, but, sheesh, could the league at least consider implementing these bad boys into the uniform rotation for each franchise? How awesome do these look? Sure, people like Vince Lombardi might be rolling over in his grave at the thought of the Green Bay Packers wearing anything other than their classic look, but let’s have a little fun with uniforms — especially if they look as sick as the ones Ultimate Effects put together.
