The Green Bay Packers are set to once again wear their 50s Classic Uniforms this season, with the uniforms returning to Lambeau Field for the Week 6 matchup against the New York Jets on Sunday, Oct. 16.
The 50s Classic Uniform is inspired by the team's uniforms from 1950-1953, which was the second time the team wore green and gold in its history. The uniforms are all green, with gold numbers and stripes, matching green pants with gold stripes, and green socks.
While the early 1950s were not a particularly successful time for the Packers on the field, it was the dawn of an extraordinarily eventful decade off the field, a decade that began with the departure of the team's founder Curly Lambeau and ended with the arrival of Vince Lombardi.
