Anyhoo, if anyone can find a picture of video of Jerry Jones in uniform and pads, you will have my eternal gratitude.

Looking at the Rangers hemmed jerseys, it looks like they just flipped up the back and sewed them to the inside of the jersey instead of cutting the coat tail off and creating a smooth hem.

A really good picture is the second pic in the Islanders photo gallery.(look at the back of Marian Hossa #81)

Hemming is always done this way. When you hem a pair of pants you fold the bottoms up and sew them so that they are a little shorter. They are doing something similar with their jerseys.

I know what hemming is. I was making the point that the jersey was not cut in a strait line like a normal jersey or shirt and sewn down. The coat tail was left on, flipped and sewn down. Creating an arch in the hem.
sorry about the wrong Hossa, the radio waves here in Atlanta are bombarded with Marian Hossa.

What’s really cool about the Hossa borthers is the inverted numbers, Marian with 18 and Marcel with 81.

Does anyone know why the hand writing on the LOC pictures is reversed, but the pictures themselves are not?

Probably someone wrote on the negatives.

Hmm… reminds me I need to update it and check out the bad links.

Columbus Blue Jackets and Chicago Blackhawks in Chicago. Chicago in white, Jackets in blue. Odd, yet somehow right.

There was a good discussion of the uniforms during the Red Wings game tonight. It started with a promo for this box (third ad box down in the right margin) on the Detroit Red Wings website:

The Wings will wear their white sweaters this Friday against Columbus. Which do you prefer to see them wear at JLA?
Red
White

Ken Daniels then asked Mickey Redmond what he preferred and he said that he wouldn’t mind them seeing them play home games in each uniform for half the year. The other guy in the booth said he likes white at home so you can see all the other teams in full colors. Daniels agreed that a lot of the road teams look the same coming through in white. Then they all agreed that the Wings didn’t screw up their uniforms with the changes. (There was some talk about teams dropping the horizontal stripe, but they didn’t single out Nashville).

Watching the game in HD, you could tell how thin the new jerseys are. You could see the blue of the Preds pants through their white jerseys.

From wikipedia: 1994, the NFL celebrated their 75th Anniversary and the Dallas Cowboys celebrated their back-to-back Super Bowl titles by unveiling the white “Double-Star” jersey on Thanksgiving Day. This special jersey was used on Monday Night Football and throughout the season’s playoffs.

Sorry for the small pics

Does this count?

that first one, that’s exactly it. a sneak attack by jerry jones. i had an actual aikman game jersey one of those.

Looks like they wore the true silver pants and not the “green-silver” pants with the white version of that jersey. Wonder if they’ve worn silver and white any other time?
