Giants to wear white pants for all home games; view uniform schedule - ( New Window )
That's awesome

I always thought the white pants looked A LOT better. The gray pants are depressing to look at comparatively.
in the words of johnny drama

VICTORY!
Good

I don't care for the gray pants. Put the red jerseys in the
never again closet too!
OK.

Now ... win?
Not a fan of the white pants at all  
The_Boss : 7/11/2016 2:38 pm : link
I liked it better when they had the 2 pairs of grey pants for home and away
why can't they just leave it alone  
Ron Johnson : 7/11/2016 2:44 pm : link
I'm not a Yankee fan but I love that they've been wearing the same uniform for 100 years

Plenty do.
I don't much care what they wear  
Matt M. : 7/11/2016 2:50 pm : link
with the lone exception being the color rush crap. I hope the league does away with this deal with Nike.

Also, I'm glad they're going with the whites permanently for the home unis. Looks a lot sharper.

While I don't really care, I do admit that when they first unveiled the white pants at home last year, I did think it looked better. But, while so many complain about these uniforms and call for "throw backs", I love the current uniforms or the other close proximity versions. These are throwbacks. And personally, I like these better than the 80s uniforms. But, again, if they want to switch to those - fine. Wear them once a year? Fine. I just am not looking forward to the color rush. I couldn't stand the ones the league unveiled last year and refused to watch a game involving them.

Lots of teams do. The Browns, the Cardinals, The Redskins (sometimes) The Bengals, The Saints
Now all they need is  
JPinstripes : 7/11/2016 3:16 pm : link
some red trim around the numbers on the home Blue jersey's with White pants... And change to all whites on the road with Blue numbers and red trim.

Breakout the gray pants a few times a year.
the Redskins don't switch anymore  
Greg from LI : 7/11/2016 3:18 pm : link
They wear those hideous French's mustard pants 24/7 now. They used to switch between white and burgundy, though.

Worst team colors in written history. Even seattle's neon green is better. It's like rooting for the Heinz Ketchup Picnic Pack.
worst professional team colors, maybe  
Greg from LI : 7/11/2016 3:27 pm : link
Worst all time belongs to....well, you know



Maroon and orange do NOT go together, sorry.
I could not care less

the Bucs wore in the late 70's. Go check those out, LOL.

It says we will wear the jersey's week 16, I'm unsure but I don't think we will see those jersey's untill game day is imminent.
Its all coming together in 2016

You must be fun to hang out with in parties.

Anyway, I'll agree that some were awful (Jags/Titans) but some were pretty cool like the Rams. Give me Color Rush over any throwback. We've all seen the throwbacks, and they're all boring, at least with Color Rush they're trying something new. Hopefully they look better this year.
White pants are more slimming on TV

I like this.  
LakeGeorgeGiant : 7/11/2016 7:16 pm : link
Now change the away pants to white and the uniforms are perfect.

Never was a fan of the grey. A little too Patriots for me.

Nike has been such a disappointment with their Jerseys and apparel! I lone for days of Reebok, this tight fit shrink wrap stuff from Nike is garbage!

White facemask. Red would look ridiculous.

Think the Vikings have the sharpest looking helmets right now. The Jaguars helmets look half-good, half-ugly.
Big No for me  
est1986 : 7/11/2016 11:35 pm : link
On the Matte finish Helmets. Would like to see a shiny 'GIANTS' Helmet.
The white looks so plain and bland to me.  
Dave in Hoboken : 7/12/2016 1:04 am : link
Gray outclassed the white. Now we look like every other team with white pants. Meh.
Now bring back the old

'Giants' helmets & all will be good.

New =/= good. Color rush is a stupid gimmick that led to hideous uniforms.

Blue with white pants was always my favorite

Not a fan of white with gray pants though. I wish they would just stick with the Blue jerseys, or red on throwback days.

Same goes for old =/= good. Like I said, some were awful, but they were also some cool ones too. Hopefully the rumors of them going a different direction is true.
Happy about this  
Josh in the City : 7/12/2016 12:41 pm : link
The current blue jerseys with white pants is probably my favorite Giants uniform in team history. Road jerseys would be better if the blue replaced the red on the white jerseys and they switched those to white pants as well. Would look much cleaner.

arcarsenal : 7/12/2016 1:30 pm : link
I think blue numbers on the away jerseys would look really weird for some reason. Maybe with a red trim it would work but I don't think so. I know the 80's/90's whites had blue numbers but they did have red trim and were a different style.

I feel like blue pants would work with the white away jersey. But I could see that looking a little too Bills.
liked the grey  
RAIN : 7/12/2016 1:39 pm : link
at least its just home. While nostalgic, the eighties uni's weren't as "tough" as todays.

Yeah, like in the top one there's still some red trim on the sleeves. I think if everything was just blue it would look weird but maybe not.
This is the best look IMHO

Jerseys
Loved those '80s teams  
81_Great_Dane : 7/12/2016 5:52 pm : link
but the unis were my least favorite thing about them. Prefer this style all around. The NY logo is a classic. Never cared for the V-neck.

I don't think any of these things are sacrosanct -- white pants, gray pants, either one is fine. I like the white letters on blue and the red letters on white. Simple, clean, classic.

I like the idea of going to a way-way-way-back throwback, but I wouldn't choose the solid red jersey.

I like the 1934 look a lot for a throwback or color-rush inspiration -- that's the Sneaker Game team. I like the '32 jersey and helmet styles. 33 had those odd striped helmets, they'd look terrible today.

I also like the winged helmet look, but I get that a lot of people associate that solely with Michigan.
