Dropping $35 to $40 on a cap isn't a big deal to me. I might pick up one of these as a grass cutting ball cap.
I bet Tee doesn't think it is a big deal.

I'm one of those thrift store hat buyers.. Some company that's been out of business since the 90s..

I had no idea there was such thing as a "draft hat".
Other than having both a "clean" hat and a "work" hat I don't know why anyone would need more than one Bengals baseball cap.

When we first got to watch football over here in the 1980s I could have picked any of the teams as I obviously have no geographical connection to any of the locations, but the Bengals uniform was the coolest by a million miles. That and Boomer with the blonde hair and magical left arm rockets drew me in and here I've been ever since. Through thin and thinner there has only been one team for me and that is the Bengals. I chose well.

Agreed. I bought a Bengals Super Bowl hat, and I'll run that til it wears out.

I didn't even know caps could cut grass. Isn't that dangerous to put on your head?

Joke is on you, I toss the cap on the lawn and let it do its thing while I enjoy an adult beverage.

I used to like a few other unis more than ours, but after the revision, I do think we have the best.
I still don't have much use for the orange tops, but the all white or the black unis are fantastic.

The orange are still my least favorite of the 3, but I do think they look better on the players than they do on fans.

Yeah.
The orange top seems too much like a party or celebration and almost weak, whereas the black says "we're hear for business."
The whites aren't bad but the black just says "we're here and we're coming for blood!"

If they had a more traditional number font, then they'd be perfection to me. The font has grown on me though. Black tops with white pants are the best combo imo.... However, Chargers unis are number 1 for me.

The draft hat is trash, though.
My thoughts too

I’ve thought the Bengals unis were among the best since the inception of the stripes

Idk, seeing the new uniforms next to the previous ones it kind of highlights how bad the latter were, imo. Especially the whites. They knocked it out of the park with the current ones though. It’s funny how much people freaked out over those crappy leaked photos, and now everyone loves them.

Yeah the old ones look so tacky. Best part of the new ones is spelling out Bengals and getting rid of the "B"

Eh, I’m in the minority of fans who doesn’t mind the B logo one bit. The best change, imo, was losing that white panel down the side.

Agree on this. The white panel ruined it.
The best uniform other than the current one was our flying tiger unis circa 97 to 03.
Those were also very simple and clean, with no white stripe. We played one game with all black in those unis and it looked awesome.

Certainly agree that the new ones are best , but I’ve just always thought the striped helmet was pretty kickass and made up for any flaws … I do agree about the white panel …have thought it to look bad on several other team’s as well in regards to “paneling stripe” like when the Broncos went with it.

I don't think you are in a minority. I just think the people who hate the "B" are more vocal about it.
Fans who don't have problem with the "B" are not constantly posting about it.
