gosioux76 Posted November 9, 2003 Share Posted November 9, 2003 This story published today tells how the Steelers produced a gold jersey to be worn in away games in hot climates where the home team wears white. Team President Dan Rooney said they would be worn with gold pants. The NFL said the alt could only be used at home, but that rule has been relaxed. The Steelers may wear these yet.Here's the link:\Pittsburgh Tribune-Review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puckcool22 Posted November 9, 2003 Share Posted November 9, 2003 does that mean it would have what ucla still uses and northwestern used to use, instead of the striping they have now?i think if it had no striping at all it would be sweet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vicfurth Posted November 9, 2003 Share Posted November 9, 2003 All yellow would make them look like Oregon. I don't think all yellow would work. It's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too pop-warner for me. All due respect, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDunn Posted November 9, 2003 Share Posted November 9, 2003 I love striping on football uniforms. i despise extremely plain jerseys with no sort of striping or coloring or anything. I'm looking at you, Oakland Raiders. The Steelers have great uniforms, but a yellow uni would ruin it. I'm assuming by gold they actually mean yellow.

puckcool22 Posted November 10, 2003 Share Posted November 10, 2003 all i know is i live in the burgh, and a lot of people wear these steeler jerseys with the font and instead of striping the logo on the sleeves, and they look awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gosioux76 Posted November 10, 2003 Author Share Posted November 10, 2003 Puck, I live in the 'burgh too and I see those stripe-less sleeve jerseys all the time, too. But I always think they look like too plain. The stripes are needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted November 10, 2003 Share Posted November 10, 2003 does that mean it would have what ucla still uses and northwestern used to use, instead of the striping they have now?no, that means the striping they use now. this style is most associated with Northwestern, as the Wildcats first used it in the mid-1920s.and one more thing...if there was a good time for the steelers to have white pants, it would be if they unveiled a gold jersey. for obvious reasons i have visions of oregon when i think about all gold.edit: a decent mockup of the rumored gold jersey along with gold and white pants. i'm not too high on black pants with this, so they weren't included.

Ez Street Posted November 10, 2003 Share Posted November 10, 2003 i like either one of those, they should do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philly97flyer Posted November 10, 2003 Share Posted November 10, 2003 if they do go with the black pants with the yellow jerseys, you know what's gonna happen soon after. thats right MIX AND MATCH!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yh Posted November 10, 2003 Share Posted November 10, 2003 The story makes it pretty clear that there would be no new pants - it would be a yellow on yellow configuration. I'm no uniform radical, but given the shade of yellow the Steelers use, I think it could work as a feasible ALTERNATE configuration for hot weather road games.

Discrim Posted November 10, 2003 Share Posted November 10, 2003 yeah, we know. unfortunately, most of us have also seen Oregon. hence, my mockup has white pants and avenger's has black pants along with the normal gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
