Oh I still bought one. Im a jersey collector, especially 49ers and Giants. Its horribly ugly, but its at least a novelty. Plus it was randomly $40 less than normal retail, which had to be a mistake.
I just wish it had been something like a revised version of the 94 throwbacks.
Maybe this black on black could be a one year deal and we could get a 1994 inspired alt with a 70th anniversary patch in place of the 75th NFL anniversary on the original throws.
I know it's a long shot, but it would be really nice.
49ers ownership is in the business of disappointing the fans, so I doubt it.
They really need a branding expert. They seem to choose the wrong option a lot. They switched AWAY from the Quentin font for the crappy generic font they use now.
Also, they decided the angled sleeve stripes were a great idea, have never fixed it, and then put them on their new alternate jersey as well.
The current home/road uniforms are great outside the sleeve stripes, but when it comes to getting things right, more often than not they screw up. Even the stadium grass...
