Thanks!

Why must so many teams announce new uniforms/helmets under such poor, obscurantist lighting conditions? Why not release nice, clear photographs under bright lights or outdoors so people can actually see what they look like? 😡😡🤬

In other words I may need better photographs for at least some of those.

This is what Houston looks like from the other side:

Also, click on the arrows reveal the helmets, and it looks to be the same on both sides for the seven other teams.

Here’s a few pics of Arlington that show their helmet better.

Thanks, someone told me that the "stripe" on that helmet was a "gradient" that faded into the blue color towards the back of the helmet. I've been trying to verify this but I don't see any reason to believe it at this point.

Here’s another video.

The rendering the league released looked like it was a gradient, but it’s definitely not. Just a poor rendering.

That was my suspicion. I have a hunch some of these XFL designs may change by the time they're actually used, so I'll revise accordingly, of course, if necessary.

I think I liked most of the 2020 XFL designs better than the 2023 designs 🤷

Looks like St. Louis is adding a white/light gray stripe to their helmet.

Totally agree! The original helmets were just fine. I don't see why they felt the need to change them up.

And now it looks like the Sea Dragons have a different center... "stripe".

Thanks, this close to the beginning of the season I'm going to just wait and see what they wear on the field before making any changes at the website.

Well, if and when you do, here is THE best pic of the helmet "stripe" for the Dragons for reference.
