Brave-Bird 08 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 I've seen multiple screenshots and video of the Steelers in action this season and I SWEAR the area on the sleeve that would be white is grey. I keep double taking and thinking it's a material thing and my eyes are playing tricks on me, but there is a huge difference between the white numbers and Nike check and the sleeve stripe. This wasn't a publicized change, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njmeadowlanders Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 It's got to be an illusion. I'd bet the farm they're white.On edit:Looks pretty white to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddball Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 I am seeing the grey too. I don't know if it's lighting, maybe through washing, the black is bleeding into the stripes. If it's white, it's not bright anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
