sock height not changing

Has anyone noticed some teams sock height all being the standard length rather than what's set In the equipment? I noticed thay it's not all teams just some of them. And does any one know if this problem will be corrected? Thanks

Re: sock height not changing

Teams that wear socks with any type of stripe on them aren't customizable.

Re: sock height not changing

So what about the teams that don't have stripes and aren't customizable? Do we just have to live with that.
I.e. vikings

I noticed it with the Vikings and the Jags. Needs to be fixed!

Re: sock height not changing

I'm playing on the ps3 and I noticed so far that the Lions "2012 alternate blue socks" and the 49ers are ok so far.

Re: sock height not changing

What I do as a workaround for the Jags or The Vikings is give them a sock from a different uniform but is the same color as there current uniform. like the 2011 purple socks for the Vikings and the 2012 black socks for the Jags, If i can remember correctly.

Re: sock height not changing

My team is the Lions and I have to use the "2012 alternate blue socks", instead of the standard socks which have a stripe, to get the sock height to change. I always create and save custom Home/Away uniforms, so I don't have to bother changing them every game. I also change the shoe color, because I hate the default, black/white shoe color.

For the Vikings/Jags and any other team with sock stripes, go through the sock choices to see if there are other solid colors available to select. For the Lions, I have two solid colors, alternate blue and black, where the sock height will change. This has been issue for many years in Madden and it may seem a small to others, but it's a big deal to me.

I also noticed, that the old "low" sock option has changed to an ankle length sock. I don't like the look of the new ankle length sock because it makes the players lower leg/calf look way too skinny (see Marshawn Lynch). First noticed it when EA started to release new screenshots of M15 and saw the socks on Marshawn. Wish they would have kept the old low sock length and added the ankle length sock as a new option but I'm guessing that EA has a finite number of sock length options available.

It always seems like EA is taking away features/options, i.e. M25 zoom cam, roster editing and low sock length, instead of adding new ones like The Show and NBA2K.
