At least the Cards didn’t steal any thunder from the Suns game 3 win

That win was about as impressive as these new uniforms.

I was waiting for @kerouac9 or @Chopper0080 to make this connection.

Good. But not great.
Which is still a big improvement on where we were.

Yeah. Really trying to only criticize people for what they can control.
Believe me… I’ve been the victim of too many candid photos (and several posed ones). I’ll wait until he calls a draw on third and eight to light him on fire, TYVM.

I'm not blown away or hate them. Definitely not the horrible redesign we saw with the Buccaneers a couple of years ago. Or the great redesign from the Bucs recently.
I like the incorporation of silver throughout the uniform. Looks like a cohesive set of gear unlike what we had previously. Nike found a way to get the grey facemask to work for MB lol.
They are possibly a bit too safe. The all red are my least favorite given how bland they are. Not a fan of how big the Arizona is on the front. Would certainly think they would look better with the road white pants.
Road uniforms are by far my favorite. Reminds me of the St Louis Cardinals. Will probably pick that jersey up.

I was never a fan of the all-refs and now these reds are even worse. Yuck Vonyuckenstein.

Oddly enough, I kinda dig the white.

What a giant letdown after weeks of hype and buildup! What a boring look with absolutely no creativity. Some of the mockups I've seen over the last couple of weeks were so much more creative than these new jerseys. Very, very disappointed!
Here are my thoughts before I read everyone else's.
The White are by far the best. Followed by Black.
The Red being different to the others kicks off my OCD. I think all 3 would have been better with Arizona on the front (in smaller font) and the Cardinals sleeves.
My live feeling was. Nice White. Black's look good too. Why do that with the Red?
It's exactly what I was expecting. Underwhelming. The franchise has no balls and Bidwill is just a dull, unimaginative person.
On saying all that, they are better than what we had. It's an upgrade but it was a low bar. But it could have been fire but was more damp squib. Like getting invited to the playboy mansion and finding it's over 60's night.
On saying all that I think when they hit the field and we see them in action we might like them a bit more.

I do like the new helmets. I like the the bigger logo and the effect that's applied to it.
These would have been in the pipeline way before Monti and JG got in the building.
People seem to think Mike paid someone to design these. They were almost certainly done by Nike in house. Not sure why Nike wouldn't be designing these themselves as they have masses of in house designers.
I know for a fact they do for other sports so I don't see why the NFL would be different.
Obviously with major guidance from the team.
I’m good with these. I’ve always felt “safe” would be the way to go for such an old franchise. Let the expansion teams have radical uniforms and logos.
Now that someone pointed out that the reds look like OU uniforms, they are my least favorite.
I’m happy overall though.

Most O line aren't fat. Just big. White's are easily the best strip!

Things have changed.
Helmets - A
Love the bigger logo and the shimmer on both helmets
All White - A
Only complaint is the sliver accent. Wouid have preferred black accent. Looks very close to all white's from 70/80's, which I love.
All Black - A
Love the all black uni's but the grey looks off for our team.
All Red - D
Huge miss. Home uni's should be fire and these are not. I would have loved to see the Arizona flag on the sleeves. The "Arizona" alignment is bad.
Bottom line - definitely an upgrade over current uni's.
Bonus - Bird City is officially dead.

Cardinals unveil new uniforms - ProFootballTalk
The Arizona Cardinals have new uniforms.The good news is that they’ve finally dumped the outdated look with the panels down each side of the jersey and the black piping. The bad news is that the new uniforms are the last example of the gradual Nikefication of the NFL.Yes, get off my lawn...
For the Cardinals, it’s not as glaring because their prior uniforms just weren’t good. But there’s nothing wrong with rewinding the clock to when they were. The Cardinals uniforms of days gone by were perfectly fine. It would be great to see one of these teams that allowed Nike to update and streamline and monetize and whatever else Nike has been trying to get all of them to do to say, “Sorry, but we’re going back to what we used to wear as our primary uniforms.”
The Cardinals had a chance to do that. Instead, like an increasing number of teams, their alternate uniforms seem better than their base uniforms. For any team experiencing that dynamic, it’s not as good of a thing as you think it is.

When the Cardinals had great OL’s in the 60’s & 70’s, you could just see a wall of white either pushing forward on running plays or setting up in pass protection. Didn’t matter if they were fat or not. It was imposing indeed. Now all they need to do is draft and develop an OL LOL.

Liking or disliking a uniform is totally subjective. With the exception of the red shoulder pads on the roadies, I always loved our uniforms through the years. Great uniforms don’t need to ever be changed dramatically. In baseball, the Yankees, Cardinals, and Dodgers have never had to tinker much. Because, they were great to begin with. I became a football Cardinal fan in the early 60’s primarily because I fell in love with their uniforms & colors. It certainly wasn’t because they were winning championships lol.
