The Washington Commanders have officially unveiled their new alternate jerseys for the upcoming season, much to the excitement of a fanbase eager to reconnect with the franchise’s storied past. The new threads, featuring the classic white top and burgundy bottom, hark back to the team’s most dominant period, often referred to as the “Super Bowl Era.” They also include gold face mask.
The team made the announcement on social media, sharing images of the iconic uniform combination with the caption: “Weaving past and present. We’re adding back the Super Bowl Era threads to our uniform rotation.” This move signals a clear intent from the Commanders’ new ownership to honor the franchise’s rich history while building for the future. The old Redskins logo even made an appearance in the video that accompanied the announcement (available below).
The white jersey over burgundy pants was a hallmark look during some of Washington’s most successful years, including their three Super Bowl championships (XVII, XXII, and XXVI). The reintroduction of this beloved uniform combination is expected to resonate deeply with long-time fans who associate it with legendary players and unforgettable moments.
This unveiling comes amidst a broader trend in the NFL allowing teams more flexibility with alternate and throwback uniforms. For the Commanders, it represents a significant step in re-engaging with their passionate fanbase and embracing the visual identity that defined their glory days. The addition of these “Super Bowl Era” threads to the uniform rotation offers a tangible link to the team’s championship legacy, bridging generations of supporters and celebrating the enduring spirit of Washington football.
History doesn’t fade…it fuels the future.
