Nike unveiled their new designs of NFL uniforms for the upcoming season on Tuesday.

The gridiron-style fashion show was held at a Brooklyn film studio in New York.

2012 marks the first time ever for Nike to create the NFL uniforms, following Reebok.

The biggest changes were performance aspects of the design, like newer lightweight fabrics and sleeker silhouettes, according to Fox News. The uniforms were said to be more breathable as well.

Uniforms of all 32 teams went on display, with some modeled by players themselves.
"It is everything a player could want in a jersey,' said St. Louis Rams cornerback Cortland Finnegan.
"The older jerseys limited you. I can feel the difference just walking around. They are state of the art."

"They're really comfortable, and they can't be pulled or tugged," New York Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz affirmed.

The goal of the redesign was to merge "tradition with innovation," according to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.

"Some teams will lean more toward the traditions," said Goodell.
"But you can see here you can put innovation into the uniform without changing the look, necessarily, about it."

"I like the fact that there are teams that are pretty much staying more in line with where they've been and there's other teams that are starting to push a little bit more," Nike CEO and President Mark Parker commented.
"We see that happen at the college level perhaps even more aggressively, but I think you'll see the NFL evolving and Nike being an exciting partner in actually helping make that happen."
