The Jacksonville Jaguars and Nike have finally shared the team's brand spanking new NFL Nike Elite 51 uniform design for the 2013 NFL season. The design has many cool features, most notably a helmet with an awesome color gradient effect. It fades from bronze to black and looks pretty stuntastic. 

The rest of the uniform is also pretty unique. Lightweight padding has been incorporated in zones prone to collision. Nike Flywire material, a thread made of nylon, has been incorporated in the neckline to aid the fit and increase the range of motion. The shoes also have a sleek design and feature similar teal/gold accents that appear on the uniform.

Aside from improving the aesthetic look and maneuverability, the uniforms are also meant to pay homage to military fans. Jacksonville happens to have the third-largest military training grounds in the U.S. Below is a video all about the new design.
