I'm amazed that the Red Sox aren't automatically #1.

I'm a Vikings Fan, and while I would not expect the uniforms to be among the best... how are they in the bottom 3?!?!?
The helmet alone should at least keep them out of the bottom 10.
The Browns should be last. Seriously, it's ugly ass poop brown with no designs... no nothing. Just poop with white. It's toilet paper.
THE BENGALS ARE SECOND TO LAST? The striped helmet is in no way THAT bad!
SCREW THIS LIST

Can't argue with that top ten one bit. Although I find the Bobcat unis way tackier than the Kings.
And have the Padres EVER had a good uniform outside of that brief pinstripe look in the late 80's?

I'm amazed that the Red Sox aren't automatically #1. Why? Paul Luckas is a Die Hard Mets fan and he treats Uniforms and stuff like that very serious. He often keeps politics and outside issues out of his decisions (outside of no longer letting people get uniwatch memberships of Native American sports teams). He is not the traditional ESPN person. |

The Vikings have the second best helmet design in football, so they definitely dont' deserve to be near the bottom.

  That's better. This guy also thinks Columbus and New Jersey have better NHL jerseys than the Blackhawks. This guy's deluded. |

Lions 108? Because of black trim? Are you f****** kidding me. They may not have the best uni's, but they do have one of the best color schemes in sports. The Honolulu blue and silver is gorgeous, the black trim just accents it. They certainly aren't bottom 25. Of course I'm biased but still.
Now those black jerseys from a few years back? Those were hideous!

This guy so obviously ripped off what Dameshek did, it infuriates me. Dameshek did this almost TWO WEEKS AGO. It got good internet buzz so he ripped it off. I get that he writes about jerseys anyways but like...come on. If you want to see for yourself...here are the REAL rankings... www.nfl.com/photos/09000d5d82b2d292 |

Obvious bias but Devils unis > every other NHL jersey except maybe the Bruins. Granted if they stuck with the Christmas colors I wouldn't be as praising. Those things have retro appeal but they really are ugly as sin.

How do you rank a team at #5 on list, call them the best jerseys in hockey, then proceed to give a different team in that league your overall #1 slot? Why rank uniforms anyway. |

Holy crap, we've finally found someone who actually LIKES the Thunder's uniforms. He put the Thunder as the #7 team in the NBA and #37 overall.
Personally it is just too damn plain for me. At least we both agree on two things, that the orange and gold trim is bitching and that on the road jerseys they should put "City" below the player's number on the front of the jersey.

I never found lists like these to have a point.
Something like uniforms is so subjective that there's really no way to judge them other than on a small person/group's opinion.
For example, I hate the Oakland A's uniforms. I can't explain why, just don't like them. I love the Minnesota Vikings uniforms, always found the purple helmets with the white horn to be awesome.
Others, obviously, will disagree. There's just no point.
