The world of fashion met the world of professional sports in Brooklyn today, as some of the NFL's biggest stars gathered with representatives from Nike and Commissioner Roger Goodell to unveil new uniforms for the league.
Dubbed the Nike Elite 51, the shirts and pants are meant to be more elastic and lighter. As you can see by this Chicago Bears mockup, the actual look varies little:
"The performance is so important for the athletes," Goodell said. "What we tried to do is innovate. Even if the look doesn't change, there's innovation... There'll be more to come."
Ben Roethlisberger of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Ray Rice of the Baltimore Ravens, Alex Smith of the San Francisco 49ers and Wes Welker of the New England Patriots were among the stars who modeled the new uniforms on stage.
Said Super Bowl hero Victor Cruz of the Super Bowl of the champion New York Giants:
"They're tight. You can't get pulled or snagged on. That's the biggest thing for me: making sure that I'm sleek and I'm fast and I can't be grabbed or held."
