As a football fan my favorite football team is a team that comes from the world famous league–national football league. Have you heard about the Buffalo Bills team? It is my favorite football team. Like other football fans, you can see a large number of Buffalo Bills jerseys in my closet. Frankly speaking, every team uniform has a different history such as Buffalo Bills uniforms, follow me you can get more information about the team uniform.
Now let us go start, When the Bills began playing in 1960; the team’s colors were royal blue, white, and silver, very similar to that of the Detroit Lions. The team wore blue jerseys with gray numbers and white jerseys with blue numbers. The helmets were all silver with blue numbers on the side. In 1962, the standing red bison was designated as the logo and took its place on a white helmet. In 1962, the team’s colors also changed to red, white, and blue. The team switched to blue jerseys with red and white stripes on the shoulders. The helmets were white with a red center stripe. By 1965, red and blue center stripes were put on the helmets. The Bills introduced blue pants worn with the white football jerseys in 1973, the last year of the standing buffalo helmet. The blue pants remained through 1985. The face mask on the helmet was blue from 1974 through 1986 before changing to white. Buffalo sporadically wore white at home in the 1980s, but has not since 1986.
In 1974, the standing bison logo was replaced by a blue charging one with a red slanting stripe streaming from its horn. In 1984, the helmet’s background color was changed from white to red, reportedly in part to distinguish them more readily from three of their division rivals at that time, the Indianapolis Colts, the Miami Dolphins, and the New England Patriots, who all also wore white helmets at that point. Then in 2002, a darker shade of blue and nickel were introduced, along with red and white pipe trimming on the jerseys and pants. The original shades of red and blue, however, were contained as striping colors. They are also still used on their logos.
In the same year in 2002, the Bills white jerseys went through a radical change. The white jerseys include a red stripe on the sides and are dark blue along the shoulders of the jerseys. The current white jerseys are worn for most Bills road games. In 2005, the Bills revived the standing bison helmet and jersey of the mid-1960s as an alternate jersey. Under Coach Dick Jauron, the Bills have usually worn the all-blue combination at home and the all-white combination on the road when not wearing the throwback kit. They have not worn blue on white since 2006, while the white on blue has not been worn since 2007. On July 30, 2009 the Bills released the second American Football League Legacy Jersey, which included the standing red bison logo.
Today, you can see all Buffalo Bills jerseys have a big change; do not feel strange, it is inevitable. With the development of world football industry and the changes in its own team, NFL football jerseys of Buffalo Bills have change themselves quickly and they are changing now. I will support the team as usual no matter what change will happen.
