RUTHERFORD, N.J. – The Giants today unveiled new road
uniforms for the 2005 season.
The uniform features a white jersey with red numerals
and stripes, gray pants with red and blue stripes and
red socks. Because the pants differ from those the team
will wear at home, the Giants will have three complete
uniforms – home, road and their alternate uniform.
The
new jerseys are exact replicas of those worn by the 1956
NFL Champion Giants. In addition to the large red
numerals, the sleeves will include a thick red stripe
bordered by two thinner red stripes. It is known as a
Northwestern stripe pattern, because the football team
at Northwestern is believed to be the first to use it.
The Giants wore those jerseys from the mid-1950s through
1963.
The pants feature a blue stripe bordered by two red
stripes. The Giants wore the same pants in the late
1950s and 1960.
The Giants will wear red socks only on the road. They
will continue to wear blue jerseys and blue socks at
home.
In addition, on both the home and away jerseys this
season the traditional “ny” logo replaces the “Giants”
script just below the drop neck.
This season, the Giants will wear black shoes with
both the home and away uniforms.
