WEEKLY WHINE

Rush to make adjustments

The NFL continues to present rushes of colour every week. To date this season, the Texans, Bengals, Rams, 49ers, Bears, Packers, Patriots, and Buccaneers have all helped the NFL enable Nike’s addiction to creating new and unusual kits.

We, however, wondered if we could give teams more options to help those with colour vision deficiencies. Accordingly, last season, we presented our Colour Rush simulator, in which you may recolour each team’s uniforms and put them through colour vision deficiency tests.

This season, Detroit have introduced new kits, and the LA Rams have updated the collar layout of their Colour Rush jerseys. These changes have now been incorporated into our simulator.

Now, for the first time this season, we present to you the opportunity to select your own colour combinations and see how they would look under certain types of colour vision deficiencies. Simply drag two teams of your choice onto the home and away boxes below. You will then be presented with several kit choices for each team. Once you select a pairing, click the options to simulate how your selected kits would look to those with protanopia, deuteranopia, tritanopia, or achromatopsia.
