Steelers new Nike uniform unveiled

By Teresa Varley - Steelers.com

The much-anticipated unveiling of the new Nike NFL jerseys took place in Brooklyn, New York on Tuesday, with NFL players modeling the new styles.

Steelers fans will be happy to know the familiar black jersey with the classic stripes they have come to know and love has not gone through any major appearance changes.

“The Pittsburgh Steelers are a storied franchise,” said defensive end Brett Keisel at the team’s practice facility shortly after the jerseys were unveiled. “It’s built around a winning tradition. Part of that is black and gold. I can’t imagine the Rooneys switching to a new uniform.

“But we’ll be looking sharp out there in our new Nike uniforms and hopefully they will help us win a lot of games and bring that seventh Lombardi Trophy we are all looking for.”

The one major change will be in the fit and make of the jersey. Nike has brought their innovative technology to the jerseys, with the material and the fabric being the major difference, allowing for a better fit for players.

“I am one of those guys that are really superstitious about my jersey,” said Keisel. “I used to tape underneath my pads. They are telling me I don’t have to tape anymore. It’s form-fitted.

This is just what Casey Hampton needs ... a form-fitted uniform to show off his curves.

I think they pay too much attention to the uniform.

Who cares? Just go out, win games and bring home another Super Bowl! All that hype and the only thing Nike is going to do is rape us at the register for jerseys made in China for a hell of a lot less and certainly not worth, what they are charging.
