Oh I really hope it's the white and not the gold pants that we get rid of

Totally. I never understood why the team got rid of the gold pants in the first place. What was Jack Pardee thinking? I would be totally fine with getting rid of the white pants all together.

If I were in charge of this stuff, the colors I'd use would be the ones from the 70th. I like the "R" helmet and the current helmet better than the spear helmet, but the colors from the 70th are spot on.

Yeah, all this talk about the gold pants being gone ,,,, I don't get it. Just because we didn't wear them at the Nike unveiling? O.K. So, if we had been wearing the gold at the nike unveiling, would people also be saying, " Well, looks like the white pants are history? "

It's possible we may not see them this year.

On Colorwerx, the lighter shade of burgundy used on the pants was not listed, so apparently they have been scraped. Sucks, I know.. Larry made a reference to the gold pants during the unveiling, and he made it seem like we still have them, so who knows. Somebody should contact Bruce and ask him.

While we may not see those this year. With Bruce Allen here, I would expect them to make a quick return.

Every NFL team is only allowed to have 3 uniform combos.

Our gold pants with Reebok were part of our 75th anniversary set. There was no problem having gold pants, because they were already part of our uniform set.

My guess is, since we haven't seen the gold pants yet, we're not going to see gold pants period. The new Nike reveal had us with burgundy tops and white pants, which means our away would be white tops with burgundy pants, and our alt is the 80th anniversary uni.

The only other way it'd work is if we're wearing gold pants with our away uniform. Which I doubt.

Really cool website with all the uniforms (I'm sure it has been linked here already, but if anyone has not seen it): http://www.gridironuniforms.com/redskins.html

This is the 1937 uni they were working from: http://www.gridironuniforms.com/imag...Washington.png (The picture is a bit too big to post so just go to the link).

This is getting too confusing.

Somebody pointed out in the other thread that this would be a great time to order a #33 jersey if you ever wanted one.

This is getting too confusing.

Okay, let me explain.

Technically, the Ravens have 3 uniforms. They have the purple on white, and the white on white. The black on black is alt.

Now, they can mix and match those uniforms as much as they want; Purple on Black, White on Black, Black on White, et all. But those are the ONLY combos they can have; they can't randomly decide to have a fourth uniform with purple pants or something. Your only allowed 3 "uniforms". How you mix and match them is your business.

For our unis, we had the Burgundy on White as our Home, the White on Burgundy for our Away, and then 75th (special white jersey with gold pants) was our Alt.

How we mixed and matched our unis was whatever; Burgundy on White, Burgundy on Burgundy, White on White, White on Gold, Burgundy and Gold, White and Burgundy. But the NFL says that we can't have a fourth uni, or an extra pants set.

Nike already has unveiled two of our uniforms; we have our home, Burgundy on White unis, and our 80th anniversary alternates. I'll take a wild guess and say that our away jerseys will be white on burgundy. That means no gold pants, unless we're going to go white on white on the road. Which would suck.

Okay, let me explain.

Na im just kidding, but seriously I would die if we go white on white. I really hope that dont happen

Makes sense.

It's funny that we've worn the gold pants at home more than the white. But I suppose if the burgundy and gold was designated home, then we wouldn't be able to wear the white at all. ( Which would be fine with me).

Yea. I guess Gold pants are the ones gone.

We've already seen RG3 in the Burgundy/White combo

Has anybody else noticed that the burgundy pants went from Matte to shiny pants after the 05 season?

the shiny burgundy pants are the worst thing that has ever happened to our uniform

Also. We have gone away from our traditional redskins socks. WHY!?

1. White socks with 1 burgundy and 1 gold stripe.
2. White lower, Burgundy upper with gold triple stripe

Now we wear the plain burgundy and white...gross

Thats where this uniform leaves more to be desired...RG3 needs some nice socks!

You mean those socks? The ones we're wearing RIGHT THERE?

Excuse me? Yes those

Look at all the nike redskins uniforms. No traditional socks.

For frak's sake...

The anniversary unis are based on the unis we wore in 1937. They ARE based on tradition just by the simple fact that they're replicated as closely to the 1937 jerseys as possible. As for the current unis, we haven't seen the friggin' away unis yet. I'll venture a guess that the "one burgundy stripe/one gold stripe" socks will appear.

Socks...we're talking about socks? I mean, seriously. We're talking about socks.
