jersey makers logos on NFL jerseys

Recommended Posts

I first began to notice NFL teams wearing the logos of jersey companies in the early 1990s. The Wilson "W" began to show up on Vikings jerseys in 1990. Here is their history

Minnesota Vikings

1990-92 Wilson

1993 Russel

1994-98 Starter

1999-2000 Puma

2001-present Reebook

2011 Reebook (schedule)

2012 Nike (schedule)

How about the other NFL teams?

Just say NO to gray facemasks.

IIRC, the Starter logo didn't show up on the Packers' sleeves (hey, remember sleeves?) until 1992.

(Prior to the Ron Wolf era, they bought their jerseys from local merchant Bertrand's Sporting Goods. He put an end to that, and ordered direct from the manufacturer. Too bad.)

In 1997, Nike got the deal, one set of Lombardi-era sleeve stripes was eliminated (Packers haven't won the Super Bowl since...OMG TEH CONSPIRACY), and the swoosh showed up.

I believe it stayed until Reebok came aboard in 2001.

Now on Facebook. And Twitter.

Eagles had Russel logos from either the late '80s or early '90s -> 1996 (first year of redesign.) In 1997 they went with Starter, and the road jerseys were modified to look more like the homes. In 1999 they were Puma, then in '02 they switched to the Reebok Vector.

Also, for some reason, when searching for game worn 1997 Eagles jerseys to confirm the switch to Starter, this image came up in Google:

I know Nike's logo was on the Broncos' set in 1996...maybe even 1995. I believe Wilson's logo was on the set from 1990 until the switch to Nike, and it was Nike until the switch to Reebok in 2002.

Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

OOOOOOOHHHHH YEEEEEEEEEEEES! nothing like a good paul bearer image in the morning.

upon my google searching, the jets wore the champion mark on their sleeves as far back as '91. when they switched to their current uniform set for the 1998 season, they went to starter for a season and in 1999, they switched over to nike. they were with nike for three seasons ('98-'00) and, by 2001, changed over to reebok.

That's what I have...

so how many of these companies actually manufactured the uniforms as opposed to keeping the same manufacturer and slapping a new logo on it?
