New logo but change our pants color, straight hideous, the suns reflection off the pants makes us look like the Mcdonalds 49ers red n yellow red n yellow

they did have shiny pants @ the 2009 draft party when they unveiled the current unis (also when crabtree was shooting his rookie card pics)...

dunno WHY they later made them a dull, matte gold (probably to approximate the 80's pants)...but i agree, the Niners should match & trump a certain texas team and also have metallic pants that match the metallic helmet

Here's an interesting site I found about failed alternative logos from other teams over the years:

I remember when Eddie was pondering switching to that logo.

What I dislike on both... is what I dislike on the pants and jerseys as well. All those damn white stripes!!!

Looks like a bunch of moving candy-canes. I miss this one most.

First time I ever seen Gore wearing thigh pads.

I don't think anyone was talking about those uni's. I think they they were refering to the 80's uni's or the current retro uni's we switched to in 09(There is a difference if you look close). The one's in your picture are from 97(I think) to 08. If I misunderstood what you were trying say, sorry, but that's my 2 cents.

New logo, no doubt. Though that old school one Niner_Demon added is great too haha.

oh well....

Now that is cool! Love it.

More modern looking but still have the nice contrast of the red and black up against each other.

nope, because theres still no gold in it. put that logo on a red background, and it looks horrible. gold HAS to be in the logo.

Right there with you. One of the few times Eddie was not in touch with the fans. The back lash Eddie got trying to introduce a new logo was insane people were seriously p**sed off.

Always thought the logo of the shooting miner would have been cool to do something with but will probably never see anything come of it.
