SoxSteeler Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Its 5am right now but i just caught an article from the post gazette in Pittsburgh with this blurb at the end. NOTES --The Steelers plan to unveil a new uniform today that they will wear for one game this fall as part of their 75th Season celebration.The link for the article is here: http://www.postgazette.com/pg/07117/781485-66.stmWe've discussed this some in the 75th anniversary thread but I thought i'd make a new topic so that no one misses it. Pics later I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josh1068 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 I can't figure out how to include images in my reply, but the jerseys and helmets are up on the Steeler web site. The helmet is gold with the current Steeler logo, and the jersey is black with gold numbers and stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Unfortunately, looks like we're not getting a '33 throwback - sounds like something along the lines of the "hybrid" faux-throwback the Skins did for their 70th.Throwback uniforms that represent the look of the 1940s, '50s and '60s will be worn by the team during two home games ? September 16 vs. Buffalo and November 5 vs. Baltimore. Steelers Super Bowl XL MVP Hines Ward modeled the uniform today during the press conference.EDIT: Since everyone posted in the same 2 minutes I did, I now see the throwback they'll use. Absolute junk. If I wanted that jersey, I'd buy it for $15 on eBay from a bootlegger in Hong Kong.Also, Bill Cowher has made the seamless transition from head coach to team mascot.

Andy Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 I wish the numbers on the jersey were consistent with the ones on the patch, one way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 I think bucco_b deserves a pat on the back, right? Didn't he "break" this story for us? At first glance, I thought that jersey was horrific. Now I think it's so ugly that it's good. Consider me pleased. Does it go with yellow or white pants? 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZapRowsdower8 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 There is a slide show up on steelers.com. Looks like it will be white pants with a thin black-gold-black stripe pattern. Socks are black with gold stripes. I like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 I like the Northwestern sock striping, and that's all I've got in the way of positives for this.

DGivens87 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Ummmm...I'll reserve judgement til I see them on the field.Btw, between the Steelers and Eagles throwback jerseys, why the hell aren't the jerseys available for sale now, rather than September?

It's like here's a helmet that would look like this today, but we would have worn 40 years ago. It doesn't make sense. Also, they "updated" the helmet, but stupid teams today (Colts, Browns, Cards) can't update theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJMorris3 Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Okay, seeing this, why can't the Eagles and Steelers both wear their throwbacks when they play each other during the preseason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
