On the Radar: 2016 Leaf Trinity Football Product Preview

With the departure of Topps, there is one company that is really looking to blow things out of the water, and as we have seen Panini is not that company. Leaf has really raised the bar this year, and delivered compelling product after compelling product, and now that we are getting a good look at Trinity, I must say, Im quite impressed. Where Panini is showing that they are more focused in churning out overproduced ugly products with stickers, Leaf is delivering on card like they always do.

Trinity has been a staple for years, and with each new edition, I always look forward to seeing their amazing dedication to awesome inscription cards. The whole set really has been great as a complete package.

Here are some from the last few years:

2015 Leaf Trinity Jameis Winston Inscription Auto

2015 Leaf Trinity Marcus Mariota Auto Patch

2014 Leaf Trinity Odell Beckham Inscription Auto Plate 1/1

2014 Leaf Trinity Teddy Bridgewater Plexiglass Auto

This year they are choosing to go with a horizontal design, and I must say, I am in LOVE. This will end up being the product that everyone should expect out of a bigger company like Panini, but it seems like Leaf is the only ones holding themselves to a higher standard of quality.

Logos or no logos, the look of these cards is stunning, with the silhouetted player and the simplified approach to keeping things clean on the design. Giving the player all that room to write works to the benefit of the set, as the inscriptions continue to be something that makes this set worth buying in bulk.

Im still upset that these sets are cut down online because of the logos being absent, but I feel it almost doesnt matter when the cards look as good as these do. Inscriptions make autograph content unique, and in an era where each rookie signs 25k cards per year, this makes the set special. With Leaf boxes also delivering top signers at a great rate as well, this product is a winner all around.

  1. These cards look amazing, like works of art. I would trade every product Panini makes for these. Leaf mite save football cards this year. No logos have bothered me in the past, but your right these look so good it just doesn’t matter.
