The throwback uniform that the Steelers will wear this weekend, AND for the Ravens game on November 18th. It looks like some genetics experiment with bees gone horribly wrong.

Looks like Nike sucks at making regular and throwback jerseys.
When I read the title, I thought it was going to be another doomsday thread.
But damn this is ugly.
Stealers are calculating that by the time their opponents stop laughing at those unis they'll be up by a couple of scores & can probably hang on.
Brilliance, I tell you, sheer brilliance! :p
The sad part about it is that those fair weather fans will by that shit. It's not ugly, it is fugly
Are we completely sure they didn't just sew uniform numbers on some tops their equipment manager picked up at the annual PA State House of Corrections yard sale?
I agree, ugly. Back in the day though, they would have been pretty svelte I am sure. I saw a short vid on the evolution of the Steeler uniforms and their colors. This was the only one of what I believe to be only a total of three different uniform variations despite the team's long history. I think this one had the crest of the city of Pittsburgh on it - but I don't see it, so maybe it was another one. I dig the other throwback jersey's. But these, I shudder . . . .
When they go back to the 30s they're just guessing. They don't even have good color pictures of what they wore, if they even have color pictures. They also could have picked the 60's jerseys which were a hell of a lot cooler

I guess this is their punishment for being 3-3.
Post that three stooges pic, they wore the same uni
I know I am hugely in the minority, but I like it. I played rugby though, and they look a lot like a rugby jersey and that's probably why.
Here ya go RWT...

I agree HKusp. I like the Rugby throwback... They are definitely different than what we are used to. I looked at that blog link posted above and I really like all three of the 60's era jerseys.
I think they should just go all the way back to the late 1800's Collegiate style knit wool sweaters with a big letter on it.
EDIT: But no matter what any team does.... these will always be the best throwbacks period.
