Damn, I’m losing sleep at night worrying about what color the shoelaces might be! Anyone hear any rumors?

Well, they are an improvement over their very dated previous uniform...
Pretty funny that we get rid of the jagged-edge shoulder stripes (even though they actually fit our "storm" meteorological motif) while the Broncos are adding it. We just always seem to be out of step.
White. Unless they go with black shoes and then black.
Those Broncos jerseys are cookie cutter crap. They're getting absolutely roasted right now for those jerseys when they had one of the best unis in the league prior to their last iteration.
You couldn't even see the edges on our jerseys. I don't think the new shoulder stripes are perfect, but we were due for a more retro look and it's one that fits college football.
Amazing these NFL teams continue to wear ****** "modern" designs when they've already got throwbacks in the closet that are 1,000x better. Why not just wear those all the time?
I agree but all they see are the dollars that come in when fans have to buy the new versions.
On top of that…if there’s one league should absolutely keep their uniforms classic/the same it’s the NFL.
I'd argue a consistent uniform that people like (and therefore want to buy merch of that uniform) and connect with as your brand (e.g., Steelers, Packers, etc.) is more valuable than a one-time boost.
You need to believe what I mean, not what I say, haha. I confuse myself many times.
And the Chiefs (and Packers) will be getting new uniforms in the year... 2119. Mark it down.
I can't wait. At least the Packers have some retro looks. The Chiefs retro is the Chiefs modern.
Curious how much the NFL has a say in what teams do with their unis. I'm sure each team has consultants and don't change much for brand identity but I wonder if the league steps in if a team considers a uniform that is too silly, to maintain the overall league brand. And if that has eased in the past year because it seems like a ton of teams are changing up their uniforms this year.
They certainly have a lot of rules re: uniforms (unfortunately, none about matching socks), but I'm not sure how much they are involved in design decisions - probably not a small amount...
