New NFL Nike Apparel: Breaking Down Hottest and Latest Gear Available

Nike threw a mixed bag at NFL fans with its new apparel line. Half of the styles are solid, but I wouldn't be caught dead wearing the other half. 

Here are photos and grades for the latest NFL Nike and New Era gear (all photos via NFL Shop):

Nike "Just Do It" T-Shirt (via Bears Shop)

Maybe it's just me, but "Just Do It" just looks wrong without the Nike swoosh. "Bears Just Do It" makes it sound like the Chicago Bears are the only team…doing it.

The design would've worked better with the Chicago logo in between "Bears" and "Just Do It."

Wearability Grade: D

Draft T-Shirt (via Cowboys and Titans Shop)

As much as I'll be critical of the NFL's other designs, I love this one. This is a draft day t-shirt a prospect could rock without hiding his face. 

But unfortunately, only teams with shorter city names can enjoy this one.

Tennessee Titans fans and Dallas Cowboys fans both can't claim that their team knows in style. Tenn Essee Knows? Did the Titans move to a new city again or what?

Wearability Grade: A (Dallas), F (Tennessee)

New Era Draft 59FIFTY® Structured Fitted Hat (via Steelers Shop)

If I was a prospect drafted by the Steelers, I'd be pumped—until I was handed their draft-day hat.

No, believe it or not, New Era didn't print the team name on top of the logo by accident. The layering is a failed attempt to do too much.

Wearability Grade: D

New Era Draft 9FIFTY® Structured Snapback Adjustable Hat (via Raiders Shop)

Not all fanbases got screwed over on draft-day hat styles. The Oakland Raiders were one of the lucky franchises. Their hat actually features a logo that isn't sat on by the name of the city.

Wearability Grade: A

New Era Draft 39THIRTY® Structured Flex Hat (via Packers Shop)

The Green Bay Packers are another team that got a raw deal with the layered style. But if you're not dead-set on buying a flat-brimmed hat, there are other options. 

The flex hat isn't as stylish, but at least you can see the logo.

Wearability Grade: C

New Era Classic 39THIRTY® Structured Flex Hat (via 49ers Shop)

New Era was so close to getting this one right.  As much as I hated the logo and the city name layered, I'm a fan of the layered logos. But the bland grey color ruins the design.

Wearability Grade: F
