I'm okay with the uniforms and particularly like the white strip. I voted an eight.
Yes, they do appear a simple design, but I am pleased they have retained a feel for the past and haven't gone overboard jazzy. Each to their own I suppose.
Hoping they will act as a springboard to better times ahead...

I always wondered what fans were still liking the Kurt Warner style we finally retired. Now we see.

These from back in the day are my favorite..... "Classic never goes out of style." Anyone can quote me on that quote! These old photos brought back a lot of GREAT MEMORIES of the “Cardiac Cards”…loved the Uniforms…the helmet…the games…and finally seeing them on National TV against the Vikings and Rams in the playoffs…even if they lost. To me…as long as they don’t screw with the helmet…the clean crisp white and red uniforms will work…but you can’t see the bird on the black helmet on TV…and it makes me think I’m watching a USFL or XFL game…so I’ll pass on those…classic works best for me too…in cars, tuxedos, cigars, drinks, movies, songs, and dare I say…uniforms. 👍

Big upgrade.
We keep our simple & classic style that's synonymous with the Cardinals.
Less is more!

Looks like a division 2 school uniform. The black one is dangerously close to Central Wasington’s Here is a picture of DII CWU uniform

This poll went somewhat how I expected. I knew there would be both haters and lovers. Let's face it, no uniform will please all.
I was a little surprised there wasn't more middle of the roaders. What surprised me the most was 10 voting epic fail. I knew there would be some but not that many.
One thing that kind of skews the outcome is its 3 very different uniforms. You have to lump all 3 together to make your call.
If it was just the white ones, I would have voted 9 or 10.
With the black ones, I actually like that look...even the black helmets...the problem for me is that black doesn't say we are the Cardinals....it's like....who is that team in all black.
The red ones are certainly a Cardinal color....it just needs slightly more white in my opinion.
Basically, I don't hate the all black or all red uniforms, but I do have reservations, so I would rate them a high 6 or low 7.
So, having said all of that, I voted 8.
One thing I am curious about for the ones that voted epic fail....what would your ideal uniform look like?
Who knows...maybe I might like it.

One thing I am curious about for the ones that voted epic fail....what would your ideal uniform look like? Who knows...maybe I might like it. I have a similar view as yours. I voted 8, they could have done worse easily. The whites are my favorite, it is classic Cards. Like Dallas has shown favoritism to their whites, I would not mind cards have a couple white options, scrap the red and use the black for color rush. I would not mind a color rush alternate of a grey or silver body, red lettering and use black helmets. Clean white uniforms are classic Card garb, distinct and the new whites are great. Who else wears the white with red…no one and that is instant recognition. Any yellow, gold or too much black blends in with other NFL teams with white uniforms. For marketing the color rush with alternate additions would expand fan options and some fans will buy multiple colors for many reasons. Having hard line limitations is a poor choice. One thing about Seahawks they have mastered the multiple concepts and the all are distinguishable Seahawks, even recent Rams are edgy and cool and all Rams. I think the young fans and players like having many options also. It is all part of the entertainment value.

One thing I am curious about for the ones that voted epic fail....what would your ideal uniform look like? Who knows...maybe I might like it. You've completely nailed it with this post thomas cat and I agree with every word of it. As you say red is the color of the team and also of the bird we represent. Its correct in that regard, but I don't find the whole look easy on the eye. The red tops and white bottoms (as current) seem to balance out better. Regarding the all black then the football team seems to have adopted 'black' as our third color, hence this strip is at least consistent with the recent past. I can live with it as long as it isn't used much on match-day (twice a season would be enough for me) and in the future is only used when necessary (color clash with the opposition).

I have ZERO problems with the new uni's...I love that they made them 'simple' instead of trying to make a statement with a gaudy, extreme, weird @$$ look...I'm not a 'jersey wearer' (last one I wore was #17 when in elementary) but will definitely buy for grandson! I have no issues with the uniforms they are classic Cardinal and simple. The whites are clean and are as Cardinal as ever. I bought two K1 Jerseys for grandsons and sent pictures of them wearing them to their other grandfather who is a Seahawk fan. The actual design of the jersey wasn’t important. LOL Their big smiles in Cardinal gear was priceless. Fun new avatar!

I would like the 3 uni's better if ARIZONA was stenciled on the front of all 3 uni's. Just having ARIZONA the red home jersey doesn't make a lot of sense. Maybe that's the tipoff that many SFS seats are being sold to visitors who do not recognize the team wearing red. To ensure the visitors at SFS know who is wearing Cardinals red that day, the home team name is on the jersey -- ARIZONA. LOL.

The new look describes the twisted reality. LOL

The new uniforms are neat, decent looking and fresh. The styling and adventure are not exactly bursting at the seams but it's football and gets the job done. So much is the play that pushes a uniforms charisma or relevancy.
