When it comes to NFL uniforms, it seems that teams are always trying to re-invent themselves only to find their way back to the originals. One team that has never felt the need to make any drastic changes to their unis are the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Bets Dressed did their ranking of all the uniforms in the league and broke them into tiers. For the Steelers, they are in the top tier, and ranked No. 7 overall. Here’s what they had to say about the Steelers:
Pittsburgh is a picturesque football town, and the Steelers have a picturesque football wardrobe. Color scheme is sharp. One-sided helmet logo is delightfully unique. And in a world where all-black uniforms became played out, the Steelers counteract the darkness with a fantastic pop of color from yellow pants. Even when they go full blackout with the Color Rush uniform, yellow accents shine through.
Speaking of blackout unis, Steelers are still best in class. Pittsburgh is also a prime exemplar of two underused and underrated combos: dark-dark-pop of color and dark-white-pop of color.
We agree that the return of block letters would be the icing on the cake for best uniforms in the league. Even in a league that has given some teams gaudy Nike Color Rush unis, the Steelers all blacks are the best in the NFL.
