The NFL needs a league-wide throwback week, not just a couple teams here and there
Or better yet, just go back to them permanently, since 90% of what they have now looks like dogshit.
Agreed!
Throwback graphics, refs , the whole 9 yards.
@@ColeridgeBernardStroudIV Except for the graphics, the AFL 50th Anniversary year kinda did that in games between the original teams from the AFL. I did really like that because it's something we haven't seen done before with both teams wearing throwbacks AND the refs wearing the AFL ref uniforms.
Would the Panthers, Jaguars, Texans and Ravens be on bye since they're too young? The Jags are the only one of the group to have major jersey changes
Eagles Kelly Green and Seahawks 90s blue are genuinely some of the best jerseys I’ve ever seen in the NFL, and I’m thankful we got to see throwbacks of them this year
Jesus loves you have a blessed day
Bruh what 💀 they switched their jerseys for a reason
Throw backs Patriots also
@@Tiggersrtipeit’s all opinion man. Each team can have whatever look they want when they set foot on the field, I’m just stating what I believe are some of the best jerseys that have seen action, that’s all
@@Tiggersrtipeno sometimes they just change for sake of change
Always a good day when a long NFL explain history lore video comes out.
Meanwhile other sports are letting their histories languish in their respective vaults.
Cooking chicken rice noodles bowls to this with a side of Asian coslaw
@@kitcarandang facts my man! I would love to see a historical NHL, NBA, or MLB channel. It would help me inform on the past without needing Wikipedia and I bet it would be entertaining watching old clips of Michael Jordan or Wayne Gretzky wining championships.
@@strongarm_11if you’re into jerseys, you HAVE TO check out icethetics
Edit: also, for hockey playoff history, check out Pinholes Graham. He’s amazing at what he does and can tell a great story.
The NBA,MLB and NHL needs a channel like this
mls,pll, slamball, dodgeball, rugby
@@fadercreek yeah and cricket
@@Cool_dawg2 A Cricket channel like this would be interesting. It could highlight the past and great moments while also teaching North American people the basics of the game.
70’s Rams, late 90’s Niners, 80’s Broncos, Jets and Eagles, and the LOB era Seahawks jerseys are some of my favorites.
Wow. This turned into a Nike commercial real fast.
Was thinking the same thing. Nike used to be great, now it’s the king of overkill.
That's what happens when you let one company monopolize the league's uniforms.
I came here to say the exact same thing. Thank you. Ugh.
No kidding
@@agbook2007 You're welcome!
I’ve long stated the lowest hanging fruit for the NFL marketing dept. is to do “throwback” Thursday for TNF games and have both squads wear the retros 1x a year and the team can do a whole monthlong sales campaign with the retro stuff.
i wishexactly, by now most teams have 5+ uniforms. i iwsh the lions wore the balck and blue jerseys more
It’d beat the hell out of color rush
That's a really good idea!
definitely, this design team may have football fans but they overlook simple trends that the rest of the fan base wants.
I’d love a similar video where you look at each team’s different jerseys over the years, the way you guys have done with stadiums and logos!
They did just look for evolution of nfl logos and evolution of nfl stadiums
@@hrodriguez561yeah he’s saying he wants one but for the jerseys to see how they’ve evolved for each team
The Nike jerseys with the white streaks at the collar shield were horrendous
That was the longest Nike ad I've ever seen.
This year's throwbacks are incredible. Seahawks, Eagles, and Bucs. Perfect and I wish they were full-time.
but nothing beats the 94 niners throwbacks
Nah the Bucs current uni’s are the best the franchise has ever had. All of our success came in these uniforms. I love the throwbacks and wish we can get them a few times a year, but the red & pewter is our greatest combination.
Good first 10 minutes before it turns into a nike ad
The Madden equipment designer team needs to watch this video.
The classic Detroit Honolulu blue, and gray is so good.
With that shiny, shimmering silver helmet.
Their 1973-78 uniforms were their best.
Was hoping to get an explanation as to why certain teams opt to not move over to the new templates. Packers still use the Reebok style unis, some teams still use the Vapor Untouchables, and some manage to somehow use multiple templates in a season. Great video though, perfect for us uniform nerds.😍
Agreed! I was hoping to hear more about this as well. The Panthers and raiders also wore the old Reebok template in the initial years of Nikes contract.
I think the eagles also wore the old Reebok fabric with nike’s logo until Nike was able to produce the shade of green they wanted.
@@InYourHouse316in the Panthers’ case it was a decision by the ownership to keep the old style of jersey. Jerry Richardson tended to always lean towards tradition and never wanted to change much. That went as far as having the NFL Shield logo at midfield as well throughout his time as owner. When David Tepper came in as owner he wanted to leave his mark as well so they switched to the new style and changed the midfield logo to the Panthers logo, as well introducing new jersey and pants combos as well. So if I had to guess, I would say the biggest reason some teams like the Packers don’t ever change anything is because it is generally a long-standing tradition of looking a certain way that they have no desire to change. I personally can’t stand David Tepper as the Panthers’ owner, but I do like the decisions he has made in terms of uniform combos and things like that. That is about the only good thing he has done for the franchise, though.
I think I remember hearing that the Packers were threatened with a fine if they didn't change their collars, and they pretty much told the NFL they didn't care and would pay it (they never had to pay it)
The packers sleeve stripes were reduced when the tight uniforms became standard.
It's funny how they talked about how great the color rush uni's were but most fans didn't really like them.
I sure as heck didn't.
I liked the Cowboys one. It was simple and not ugly.
That part about when teams choose what they wanna wear brings me to an interesting tidbit. In 2006, the Saints decided they were gonna wear white at "home" because they didn't know if they'd be back in the Superdome. When the Saints learned it'd be ready, they wanted to switch to black at home, but the league said they needed approval from each opponent. 5 said yes. The other 3 were the Falcons, Panthers and Buccaneers.
Didn't the Saints want to wear white because they thought the black jerseys were too loose?
Jaguars need to release 90s throwback unis
I for one don't like some of the new school jerseys tbh
Me either.
This was a great Nike commercial.
For me always been the Raiders. Like wearing a James Bond tuxedo on the field totally iconic.
There's absolutely no way the NFL doesn't have beef with Starter. When they went over the "wild west" days of the 90s they didn't even mention them when they were probably the most wide spread manufacturer of NFL jerseys before Nike in 1997. I felt like they didn't mention Sand Knit enough (prolific in the 80s. Even more so than Russell)
Or Wilson.
Not beef perse, Nike just has an "understanding" with the NFL that mentioning anybody else doing the same thing as them is a no go. Companies value business dealings before their own history.
@@dust195
Not true. They have a contractual agreement.
Russel Athletic once made uniforms for all NFL team but four in 1983.
@@akbarlebowitz8151 I think Russell might have done at least some of the jerseys for 15 teams in 1983 (Patriots, Colts, Dolphins, Jets, Oilers, Browns, Bengals, Chiefs, Broncos, Eagles, Cowboys, Redskins, Buccaneers, Falcons, and possibly the 49ers).
Meanwhile, most NFL fans all agree that the throwbacks are way better than the "new" looks. Glad you guys get all excited about new changes to the uniforms; but the NFL was built on tradition, respect for the ones who came before, sharing in that collective history, and being a part of the history that is told tomorrow. It would be nice if the uniform designers and choosers showed a little more respect to that history, instead of geeking out on just how different they can make things.
Nike destroying what was previously an awesome set of Broncos uniforms in 1996 should not be something they consider a feather in their cap. This dude here is way too proud of that new design, lol.
Too much nike talk. Should have been more history of the jersey of the 80s and 90s
I really enjoy these history videos i learn so much especially of the beginning days it reminds me that its very much real if that makes sense.. a reminder of how far the world has come in this case, the NFL.... KEEP DOING THESE PLEASE IDC OF WHAT HISTORY ABOUT THE LEAGUE... THIS CHANNEL ROCKS...
Man, i wish we could go back to the orange crush uniforms with a modernized version of the "D" logo.
THIS WAS FANTASTIC!! Now do one on how helmets are made
Can you do an "Evolution/history of every NFL team's jerseys" video? Similar to videos you've done in the past.
The Cowboys need to do a throwback to their late 70's road blue jersey.
There was a video of a tour of the Vikings Museum and seeing those 1950s jerseys makes you think how far the technology has come…
I like when players actually had sleeves for their jerseys
Me too.
The Sand-Knit / Russell Athletic NFL Football Jerseys are truly Classic and Vintage!
NFL Throwback is always killing it!! My favorite notification!!! As a pure jersey-head this was awesome.. I kind of wish they dived a little deeper into all the jerseys throughout history for each team, but wonderful work as usual!!!
It's funny how the color rush unis produced the color blind game and they used footage from that game as a positive note and said it was well received lol
When the LA Rams changed their jerseys in 2020, a huge mistake was made. I cannot stand them.
They should have gone back to their 1973-99 uniforms or the blue and whites of 1964-72 .
52:50 Gridiron Uniforms Databases, welcome to the NFL official TH-cam channel !
You deserved it!
Nike got them sweat shops working overtime
_comment posted from sweatshop smartphone_
This feels like less of "Evolution of NFL Jerseys" and more of a 72 minute nike ad
Being an NFL tailor sounds like a dope gig
I like the intro nodding to the absurdity of tribalism.
This is kind of just a long ad, though.
Love them eagles kelly green and bucs creamcicles jerseys
Gil Byrd, Chargers corner from the 80s #22 and father of Jarius Byrd who spent most of his career in Buffalo, actually did wear a "onsie" at one point in his career, having his jersey sewn to his pants.
It would be great to see every NFL team with uniforms from different sportswear brands again, like Adidas, Under Armour, Puma, New Balance, etc.
yea 6 to 8 years of development time so much bloat in these large companies drives staleness with no competition.
I loved the old Denver uniforms from the 70s and 80s
Me too. Especially when they wore the orange pants and plain blue socks with their white jerseys. They need to bring back those '70s uniforms permanently.
This was cool until it became a Nike commercial
I don't know why, but I miss the bulky pads days of the NFL and college football. But, you couldn't move as quickly as most players nowadays.
fuck the bulky pads. it looks dumb.
@@2HumbleBeast3 to each their own I guess
A video on helmet evolution with important helmets would also be awesome
Please bring back NFL Top 10 🥺
This was another fine piece of NFL Explained. I know these take months to put together with the filming, interviews, and graphics. Thanks for sharing. Also, thanks for spotlighting this aspect of the uniform history at 14:57. Seeing all of the various jersey manufacturing companies have their logo on various team jerseys will always be a staple of the 90's for me. I remember the 49ers had Wilson for many years, and then I think went to Adidas before the league-wide Reebok takeover in 2002. And now we have Nike.
55:10
Coach:“now doesnt that look better?”
Me:”not particularly” *runs back to huddle*
I’ve always been fascinated about the NFL uniform’s & everything that goes into preparation for game days / season
Nike has ruined uniforms. The socks don’t even have stripes anymore. Looks like pajamas
This is a supremely fascinating insight into jerseys and their history, design, manufacture, and aesthetics. Lovely stuff, greatly appreciated by this British student of the game.
I wish they talked about the hand warmers stitched into the jerseys lol
That would’ve been cool. This video was 5% actually informative and 95% Nike commercial.
We definitely need an evolution of equipment/helmet post
This isn’t a jersey documentary it’s a Nike commercial
What a great video, and really cool to see how much it goes into the project.
This was a great video. A lot cool info about jerseys I never knew about
The 1980's and early 1990's were the golden age for NFL jerseys. I knew it was over when you had teams like the Broncos and Eagles changing their uniforms, not to mention the Steelers getting rid of block numerals.
Yeah, the second half of the '90s was when uniforms began to go downhill.
Couldn’t agree more
@@3243_Yes! That about when almost every team in pro sports started wearing black and leaned way too hard into “modern”. Tons of classic looks where ruined.
Glad the Cowboys kept their looks.
@@americasteam2112 For the most part, other than their Color Rush uniforms and the white pants they wear sometimes. Their 1994-95 alternate jerseys with the star on each shoulder were okay, but they look a lot better in their regular uniforms.
Most interesting commercial I’ve watched in a long time.
1991-92 patriots are my favorite uniforms in nfl history. Red jerseys, red fask mask, white helmet. It's beautiful. RIP dick macpherson
A hour long video that will raddle my brain while doing notes lol lets goooo!!!
How can it be an evolution beyond Cunningham in the Kelly Green 12. It doesn't get any better. I bet most teams prefer their old jerseys to what they have now.
This was very informative. I didn' t know this about the jersey was so intense.
This is the content I subscribed for!
Great video, keep doing videos like these
Another great documentary from NFL Throwback, they never disappoint!
I miss the old silky flowy jerseys of the 80s and 90s
A shameless Nike ad
Reebok made them best.
I'm only 18 minutes into this thing This is so intriguing I love it Great job
Crazy how in depth and how far they've gotten.
As a uniform nerd, this was awesome! I would love to work for the team that does the uniforms, especially when there is a re-brand. Thanks for this video!
I love these videos but these non skip vids are crazy
The video I didn’t know I NEEDED !!!
This Is A Great Video 📸 NFL Throwback Keep Up The Good Work 👍
the capped sleeves are perfect
Hoping very soon my Miami Dolphins will incorporate their throwback look into a new logo & uniforms…. 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Now I know who to blame for that croissant design on rams gear!
ive been waiting 7 years for this video to drop
Thursday Night Football should become Throwback Thursday, where both teams where throwback uniforms. And for the teams that don't have throwbacks(Panthers and Texans, Ravens and Radiers have distinctions), they can rock alternates
The Raiders do have throwbacks. Silver numbers and at the very beginning something different
@JosePerez-vz1qq I didn't know that! I remember that they had a different logo back then, but I didn't know about those changes. I did mention the Ravens and Raiders do have uniform distinctions that make throwback uniforms different than their current sets
The Raiders do have Gold and Black uniforms from 1960
Wow this is awesome
Thanks
Unbelievable how interesting this is to me.
Great documentary.
Damn that was a cool video, documentary. Thanks.
4:55 New York "Montreal Canadiens" Giants
Excellent film.
love the color rush uniforms. monochromatic unis always look kool.
Thank you NFL films!! I don't know if my email had anything to do with it
I would sometimes think that the Steelers black and yellow striped throwback uniforms made them look like “bumblebee prisoners!”
I thought you said the Steelers were goning to wear Penn State uniforms.
No, I said state pen.
0:59 and he did!
How do you get a cupped shoulder jersey? Or do i need to learn how to Sew?
If the @nfl was responsible for the Rams new design, they failed miserably.
The color rush unis were awesome!
That Dayton triangles jersey was actually pretty dope with the striped long sleeves
Great watch.
paul lukas is the goat of uniform lore
This is gonna be a banger
Needing to Kno the jersey manufacturer for both the 1987 oilers and broncos game jerseys and also for the 1990 cowboys and wut shade of blue is the oil derrick on the 87 oilers helmet. Thanks lol
