Favorite once-worn uniforms

[Ben5]

Question: do throwbacks count as one-offs? For example, those 1960 Eagles uniforms. They wore those in 1960, so they weren't worn once. Right?

I'd say unless they were exact throwbacks, identical down to every possible detail, then yes, they are one-offs. For instance, the 1994 NFL uniforms were, for the most part, very different than the originals they copied, so any of them (I don't know how many times they were worn) wouldn't count.

These ... that Philly wore for their 2010 season~home opener, the 50th anniversary of their 1960 NFL Championship team?

That Eagles uni is perfect. See you don't really need outlines on good contrasting elements such as the wings on the helmet and the numbers. Wish more teams would go this way.

and of course the Redskins 2002; 70th anniversary uniforms based off their '65-'69 look:

Only issue, the 2 patches were total overkill.

If you look closely, the patch on the right shoulder appears to be for the American Bowl in Osaka. So it wasn't a permanent fixture on that jersey.

If the Redskins aren't going to use this look, it would be nice if someone else picked it up... FSU would be the obvious choice, but my vote would be the University of Minnesota (sans spears of course), who hasn't looked good for a while.

I liked the 2011 Ohio State Pro Combats. They looked quite nice, but not outdated. Also (and maybe one of the main reasons I liked the set a lot), that specific helmet seemed to have some kind of unique finish to the silver that I don't think I'd seen anywhere else. I thought it really made the helmet pop, especially under the lights.

For the US men's team,

And in what may be the coolest and most appropriate uni to ever hit the field:

I may be in the minority here, but I loved the light blue and yellow Eagles uniforms from a few years ago.

You probably are!

You're totally spot-on .... I totally forgot about that

I want to say Florida wore their version of these multiple times, but I thought the Virgina Tech ones looked pretty nice:

For the US men's team,

John O'Brien, is that you...? Those were nice jerseys--too bad they didn't get very good results in them (poor showing in the sendoff series as I recall).

OT, but I actually have one of these jerseys that I break out on special USMNT occasions:

It worked for VT a lot better than Florida. But then, Marcus Vick realized "Hey, I can wear my shirt backward!" and went all harlequin with it.

All time favorite Michigan Uniforms

This one i own

Are you blind?

I don't think those are as awful as some people peg them to be. The design isn't great, but the color scheme is really nice.

Agreed. This uniform looks great and I hate the Eagles.

They need to go back to Kelly Green. The uniform they have now with too much black is a mess.

If we can count uniforms not yet worn their designated one time, I'd add this one:

[coogrfan]

UH's 70's throwbacks. I particulary like the utterly wonderful monogrammed polos, red pants with white belts and shoes worn by the coaching staff for the occasion. Sure wish we could make this our full time look...

[shstpt1]

Also these beauties, and I mean the jerseys. Not that Jenn Brown isn't gorgeous.

I loved these... the attention to the detail, such as the duck on the bumper of the helmet. Just another amazing design by the Ducks!

This defies all logic, but I love this combo for Oregon. The color scheme shouldn't work together, but here it does.

The only way this could have been better is if the yellow was replaced with Volt. That would've been sick. And in the theme of this thread, yes, it was only worn once.

I dont know about the volt, but definitely one of the best combos worn. when i first heard this combo, i cringed, but then they actually wore it and i fell in love with it! i love it so much that it became my desktop photo for almost all season

I like these Eagles throwbacks a lot more than the 1950s version above.
