The Detroit Lions unveiled three new uniforms on Thursday night in front of season ticket holders at Ford Field and then to the public.
Detroit will stick with Honolulu Blue home uniforms and white road uniforms, but also brought back a black alternate jersey, going away with the silver color rush uniforms.
“We are excited to launch a new era of Lions football,” said Detroit Lions President & CEO, Rod Wood. “Honolulu Blue and Silver has defined the Detroit Lions for generations and I am proud that we found a way to continue to evolve the look with a nod to the past and a focus on the future. The traditional look of our primary jerseys combined with the bold attitude of our alternate jerseys capture the essence of Detroit and the multi-generational fans base that supports us.”
“Behold a modern take on the most iconic Detroit Lions uniform ever worn. In refreshed “Honolulu Blue”, the Home jersey welcomes back a classic white number font, and is paired with pants in true silver – the way it was meant to be. New shoulder and pant striping borrows from the racing stripes used on the Ford Mustang, and both notably include the return of white accents.
The inside collar is inscribed with “One Pride”, in honor of our team’s passionate and frenzied fan base that packs Ford Field to create one of the most intimidating game day atmospheres in the NFL.”
