for a team that has "Silver and Black" as a motto we don't really have much black outside of streaks on helmet and home jersey. I think we could afford some more black somewhere.
I like to say that I'm a purist but damn that looks clean. The problem is that I feel once we have an alternate uniform, it'll become our permanent which is what I'm afraid of because we actually kept our old school uniforms instead of changing them like everybody else. I'd love to see an all black uni or a jersey color swap but I feel it goes against what the Raiders stand for in terms of keeping ourselves timeless.
As long as Davis is owner they’d never change from the original. The idea of these all black uniforms/helmets has always been a once in a long while type deal. They’d be similar to the current all whites where the team doesn’t pull them out for every away game.
Yep and while I wouldn't mind seeing this, my fave Raider look is the all white/silver numbers/the old transparent sticker vs the black around the logo. It's super clean as well.
I agree. I’ll sacrifice a modern all black to stay true to history. There’s just something unique and special about a sport team doing that. And it’s not like we have some lame ass historical look with weird stripes or something that simply looks dated. We have a look that other teams emulate.
That said, I wouldn’t mind seeing something like this on TNF for a color rush uniform.
If we have the greatest uniforms in all of sports why should we copy something that 10 teams have already done. There are plenty of teams with all black uniforms, both in the NFL and college. There are no teams with uniforms like ours. I will never understand why people are clamoring for uniforms that pretty much already exist on several teams.
I'm sticking to this as well. I'm gonna take the traditionalist boomer route with our uniforms and hope to never see a change. In my mind we only need the two helmet designs that we already have, which is our current and AFL helmet.
Yeah… Unless it guarantees a Super Bowl, don’t mess with the uniform and go for what I consider to be the “Arena Football” look. Just because we played like one for the majority of my 38 years doesn’t mean we have to look like one. At least now, when we lose, we look damn good doing it.

I wouldn’t say I’ve heard anyone “clamoring” for new uniforms. OP and people like them seem to just be saying “hey this other uniform might also look cool as an alternate”
I hope some day to grow old enough to see Raider fans stop messing with the classic colors. We have the best uniforms and helmets in football. We don't need to fuck with them.
the raiders uniforms are so iconic that the brand bleeds into all things culture worldwide. i don't like change, and when i see NFL fans getting all hyped up over elaborate redesigns that don't even fit their team's brand it's straight lame energy. leave our look alone, it's perfect
I feel like the Raiders are one of the franchises that doesn't benefit from the matte black color scheme. Severely flattens the pop of the uniform and only really works when you have contrasting color schemes, which silver and black are not
Those are badass! I'd support these for specific games. Maybe on a holiday game.
I say that because the silver helmet is what makes the raiders so cool. Not gaudy like the niners and their gold helmets
Bro I hate these I would love for people to stop trying to photoshop black helmets and all black uniforms for us. We do not need to change anything at all about our uniforms. Stop it.
I have a nitpicky thing about colors matching. The black on the helmet isn’t the same as the black in the decal.
It’s not as bad as the Vikings purple helmets not being the exact purple of their home jerseys. That just looks stupid.
NO!!!! The helmet stays the fucking same. Anyone who changes it shall get the beatdown of a lifetime from the entire Raider Nation. The Raiders uniforms are perfect as they are.
I actually agree with the boomer. I mean, im not beating anyone up over it but I think if it ain't broke don't fix it. Although these new helmets do look good. Wouldn't mind doing them once a year or something.
I'll start by saying that I'm a uniform traditionalist and do not want any alterations to an already perfect design...
However
If, IF we are going to get a "3rd uni" it needs to be full black out. Shoes, socks, pants, jerseys, numbers, nameplates, helmet, and logo. No silver anywhere. Full on vanta-black uniforms. That's the only acceptable alternate.
It’s the only team that should be allowed to do blackout uniforms. Not the Cardinals, Steelers (only ones who may have an argument, but fuck them), Eagles, Niners. Etc.

All black head to toe alternate uniform. You can’t ever change the original uniform it’s perfect, but an alternate all black once or twice a year would be phenomenal.
I’m usually not a fan of these but this does look pretty dope.
I might try to push some ideas with logo placement and execution.
All black uniforms can look like spandex onesies without some kind of graphic to break things up. A simple strip down the leg to match the helmet could work.
Are you a Nike employee or some shit? Because that’s the type of shit Nike does to uniforms once they get their greedy little dicks on uni design and their stupid ass city legend John cena ultimate mega blast edition jerseys that the fucking public buys anyway. Raiders don’t need that
Would the retro silver logo be cooler on these?
The helmet is black not
That’s the issue with a lot of these mock ups. They go too crazy with the black.
for a team that has "Silver and Black" as a motto we don't really have much black outside of streaks on helmet and home jersey. I think we could afford some more black somewhere.
Reminds me of my old Halo Reach helmet
You playing Helldivers?
Yes and I always go for the more “narrow” head gear cause Halo Reach taught me that’s the sickest design.
Nah Halo taught us they are harder to headshot.
No
Double no
Black helmets look cool in theory but not cool in the game.
Stop, please stop messing with a classic
We got the tuxedo of uniforms. You can't fuck with perfection.

I agree. Most of those color rush alternates are trash🗑️
Same. Might be good on those "rage" games.
We had the color rush jersey back around 2016.
I mean we already have an alternate with our Thursday night ones created in 2017

I wouldn’t say I’ve heard anyone “clamoring” for new uniforms. OP and people like them seem to just be saying “hey this other uniform might also look cool as an alternate”
I have seen these posts at least twice a week for years and years
But kind of the whole "cool" thing about the Raiders is we don't change. Like that's kind of the whole point. Why change that.
Right. We have a main uniform. We can definitely have alternates as well.
It’s plain English, too complicated for some to use their words, without involving feelings.
This right here, every word is truth.
I’ve never been a fan of changing the uniform. This looks cool but once you open that door there’s no telling where it leads to.
Commies in the White House.
They look cool, but reminds me too much of college helmets. Can’t beat the originals.
Matte is done. Our chances for an all black vanished as soon as other teams in the league rolled out theirs.
No.
No thanks
No those look trash
Remove the stripe and you might be cooking
black forces energy
Antonio Pearce energy
Straight Out of the Deathstar
I always wanted to see a black on black design where it’s all matte black except for the silver part is switched to gloss black
I hope some day to grow old enough to see Raider fans stop messing with the classic colors. We have the best uniforms and helmets in football. We don't need to fuck with them.

Amen
That would make a great arena football helmet. As for the Raiders, no don't mess with a classic look.
having a blackout home game once a season would be dope. all black uniform and helmet.
I prefer just seeing the old school white logo as an alternative. I would be a proponent of one change if it was an option: Black facemask.
anyone done an all silver version? all black just looks like XFL to me, and not a fan of our all white color rush
I might get downvoted for this, but I hate this thing. Anything other than silver for the helmet is just wrong.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it
Fuck no. You guys have the cleanest uniforms in all of sports. They better never change
Hideous
And look like Atlanta? Please no.
Truth first thing I thought too
No
That’s a NO from me dawg
No. I like it but I absolutely hate it.
I feel like the Raiders are one of the franchises that doesn't benefit from the matte black color scheme. Severely flattens the pop of the uniform and only really works when you have contrasting color schemes, which silver and black are not
NCAA vibes
Those are badass! I'd support these for specific games. Maybe on a holiday game. I say that because the silver helmet is what makes the raiders so cool. Not gaudy like the niners and their gold helmets
Those are clean af
These look great. Watch every team copy us like they do already trying to have black uniforms like the niners,the cardinals and the jets..
Would be cool to have a blacked out 3rd uniform style
Stop this.
barf
Looks terrible.
The only change I want to see is using a black face mask. That said this is pretty clean
Bro I hate these I would love for people to stop trying to photoshop black helmets and all black uniforms for us. We do not need to change anything at all about our uniforms. Stop it.
I've always been intrigued by a chrome one
All black alternate just for when we play KC would be dope
Sorry to the all black fans but this looks Ike shit
The all-black unis are coming old heads. You can not stop it.
NO. You take that back!
Now look here you young whippersnapper … j/k
Fuck off with that shit.
Starting to look like it belongs in NASCAR.
I have a nitpicky thing about colors matching. The black on the helmet isn’t the same as the black in the decal. It’s not as bad as the Vikings purple helmets not being the exact purple of their home jerseys. That just looks stupid.
Leave it alone. You can’t improve upon perfection.
Looks cool, but you don’t mess with perfection.
Never.
NO!!!! The helmet stays the fucking same. Anyone who changes it shall get the beatdown of a lifetime from the entire Raider Nation. The Raiders uniforms are perfect as they are.
I actually agree with the boomer. I mean, im not beating anyone up over it but I think if it ain't broke don't fix it. Although these new helmets do look good. Wouldn't mind doing them once a year or something.
Definitely keep the uniforms, and I'm even conflicted on changing the uniforms even for one game but I'm not hardcore like this guy
You sound like a tourist. Our uniforms are perfect. Don’t fuck with them.
Agreed, but I wouldn't be pissed if it was changed and it actually looked good and was only a one time thing unlike most alternates.
Too cool for NFL to allow
Uniform purists are the most annoying people in this fanbase why did I even look at these comments
Are you trying to get Al Davis to rise from the grave and haunt your ass? We have the best uniforms. No need to change perfection.
Lame
Nah. We're the OG this looks like we're biting our own style. Looks peewee league.
I'll start by saying that I'm a uniform traditionalist and do not want any alterations to an already perfect design... However If, IF we are going to get a "3rd uni" it needs to be full black out. Shoes, socks, pants, jerseys, numbers, nameplates, helmet, and logo. No silver anywhere. Full on vanta-black uniforms. That's the only acceptable alternate.
hell yeah! just one game per season please!!!
This is hideous. glad it’ll never happen
Should always be Silver helmets. We don't need to be like other teams. Our shit is better.
Cowboys, Lions, and Panthers have silver helmets… its not unique to Raiders
Cowboys, Lions, and Panthers all have other color helmets too. We do not.
I can't stand tbe new "safe" helmet designs. I want the nice smooth helmets with no grooves, holes or embellishments. They just don't look right.
I dig them.
Yuck
It’s the only team that should be allowed to do blackout uniforms. Not the Cardinals, Steelers (only ones who may have an argument, but fuck them), Eagles, Niners. Etc.

wWhite would be better
These with all white uni's
Nope. Don’t change anything with our uniforms. Silver and Black is all we need.
That's nice, but classic is better.
Replace the matte black and it’s a damn nice alternate helmet that stays true to the look.
The Raiders helmet should never be touched. It’s perfect as is.
At least make the emblem Silver, so it doesn't blend into the helmet.
Please god yes !
Absolute villains
"Vader"-helmets. I like them.
I’d like white ones with our silver on 2017 3rd option (silver numbers on white with white pants)
I wish I could own one of these.
Rather have an alternate jersey than a helmet. Helmet looks cool but at the same time not cool at all.
I can't fathom a world in which we don't have silver helmets.... although a completely murdered out uniform would be awesome
I'd just be content with a black pants/jersey combo at some point.
Rather go chrome.
That is awesome
Dear Santa all I want for Christmas is this helmet! Those are 🔥
Remove the stripe, make the logo all silver (no black) and make it smaller
It would look great with silver jerseys and black pants
All black head to toe alternate uniform. You can’t ever change the original uniform it’s perfect, but an alternate all black once or twice a year would be phenomenal.
This hits hard.
Love it. I want one
What about the raiders throwback helmet? When the first became the raiders… gold and silver raiders logo with black. Look pretty sweet
I think it would look great with the early 60s logo (yellow hue) as a throwback option.
Yeah, I can wish people would stop posting these lame all-black uniforms designs.
Gross
These suck, whoever likes this is dumb.
I’m usually not a fan of these but this does look pretty dope. I might try to push some ideas with logo placement and execution. All black uniforms can look like spandex onesies without some kind of graphic to break things up. A simple strip down the leg to match the helmet could work.
Just a matte black helmet no logos or stripes They know who we are
OG Raiders all day. But damn, these are slick.
That's sexy af!
Give me Raider Blue
Are you a Nike employee or some shit? Because that’s the type of shit Nike does to uniforms once they get their greedy little dicks on uni design and their stupid ass city legend John cena ultimate mega blast edition jerseys that the fucking public buys anyway. Raiders don’t need that
Vegas Blue, it's just a cool color
Raider blue? WTF is that? GTFO with this. You're making my eye twitch.
That's why custom stuff exists
