New Unis in Buffalo: Bills bring back old school look

The Buffalo Bills introduced its new line of uniforms for 2011 at Ralph Wilson Stadium on Friday.

Now, instead of occasionally repping the old school white helmet, Buffalo is back to permanently sporting the look for the first time since 1983. The new jerseys now say 'Buffalo' just below the v-neck on the front of the jersey, and the charging buffalo logo will appear on the back of the jersey just above the (player's) nameplate.

Reebok, the maker of the new jerseys, made them 30-40 percent lighter and they feature two white and red stripes on the sleeves.

I, for one, am a huge fan of the new look for the Bills. A lot of teams, when choosing new uniforms, have gone with a brand new look and got away from tradition. But Buffalo incorporated both old and new to combine for a great-looking uniform for the new decade.

Great job.
