W-W-G will look good and C-W-G as well. W-C-G would feel mismatched and off balanced I think.

There needs to be at least two pieces (helmet, top, pants) that match color wise for every set, or the main colors need to be on top and bottom (C-W-G), otherwise it feels off balanced somehow idk.
Generally true, yes.

Now that we have the cardinal jerseys with white numbers, I do think the w/c/g would work, and actually be a nice change from the previous years when we had c/c/g. Especially if they wore white accessories like white socks, white gloves.

So Cys Locker room, the arm stripes go fully around the sleeve and the real game jerseys its just on the outside of the sleeve.
I don't know why this bugs me so much.
Actually the real ones DO go around the entire sleeve IF (and only IF) the player chooses to have the loose fitting/long jersey style (i.e. not tight/elastic’d directly at the upper shoulder). Very rarely do players ask for this style anymore. For a good visualization, take a look at Jalen Ramsey #5 playing cornerback for the Dolphins right now. Essentially same template as we (and now, most teams) have. Garrett Wilson of the Jets has a loose fitting arm style as well. QB’s are most prone to do this (Kyle Kempt did it, Brock did it after his freshman year).

They make most clothing items way too busy buy throwing in a random oversized logo. Most shirts with the script "Iowa State"or "Cyclones" doesn't need a logo added that also doesn't match the color of the lettering.

I agree. But that also doesn't recognize how god f*cking awful that logo is. I have clue who keeps promoting or printing that thing. It's terrible.

There are so many clothing items on the book store and elsewhere using the rebranded "new" CY and bugle smh. They're losing out on sales. I think they're embracing the old logos more though.

Also branded bills, their hats look cool but they only have IState logo and nothing else. I really want one of those hats but I'd be more likely if it was a walking CY or orrnado.

Yellow ‘gold’ can work too!

Apologies, forgot where I downloaded this on Twitter (or probably somewhere earlier on this thread!) but HUGE props to the fella or drew these up…
Love these.

That overall package works well, doesn't look dated. One thing I would change, shoulder strips gold-white-gold (white in the center) instead of W-G-W - it more closely matches C-W-C of the helmet & pants striping.
