Nike Football unveiled their 2013 Pro Bowl uniforms today, ideally mixing retro and modern, in a sleek, visually-striking package.
The aesthetics opt for a fairly classic style, with the jerseys opting for the full “AMERICAN” and “NATIONAL” across the chest, traditional TV numbers on the shoulders, and the wearer’s team represented in a patch on the right-chest.
Technologically though, the gear is anything but old-fashioned, as the new kits are of the Nike NFL Elite 51 uniform system, with Flywire collars reducing weight and locking-down fit, four-way stretch fabric for full range-of-motion, and lightweight padding added to the baselayer, offering extra protection in the “hit zones.”
The 2013 Pro Bowl uniforms will debut this Sunday, when the AFC and NFC take the field in Hawaii.
