New York Giants To Wear 1980-99 Throwback Uniforms Twice In 2023

The New York Giants announced on Wednesday evening they will once again wear their 1980-99 throwback uniforms for two games this season.

That includes their Oct. 22 game against the Washington Commanders and the Monday Night Football matchup with the Green Bay Packers on Dec. 11.

The uniforms feature a navy blue helmet with an underlined “GIANTS” wordmark on both sides, a royal blue jersey with a classic striping pattern on the collar and cuffs and white pants with red and blue stripes.

New York went 164-146-2 during the uniform’s original 20-year run, including a pair of Super Bowl victories (XXI over the Denver Broncos and XXV over the Buffalo Bills) and four division titles.

The look returned for two games last season, first in a 20-12 win over the Chicago Bears on Oct. 2 and then in a 20-20 tie against the Commanders on Dec. 4.

That’s not to be confused with the Giants’ Color Rush uniform, which is modeled after what the franchise wore on the road from 1980-99 and made its debut in 2016.

In addition to the throwback uniforms, MetLife Stadium will again be retrofitted with New York’s end zone design from Super Bowl XXI and throwback wall wraps.
