“This season obviously still holds a special place in the hearts of Giants fans,” Giants president John Mara said in a statement released by the team. “Our teams during that time featured legendary players, some of the best in our franchise history. And these uniforms remind us of what was accomplished over the years. We are excited to wear this uniform again.” The Giants are the latest addition to a long list of teams that have unveiled new uniforms or helmets for the 2022 season. Thanks to the end of the league’s one-shell rule, clubs jumped at the chance to add much-needed variety to their aesthetics appearances. New York joined them in this regard, ensuring the classic blue uniform would be historically accurate by waiting for the single-shell rule to end before introducing the lookback, which features a period-appropriate navy helmet with a single red stripe to the bottoms. the middle script and the GIANTS brand on each side. Previously, the Giants have combined details from that era, such as the white, road version of the 1980 and 1990 uniforms, with their current helmet color, which is more vibrant and visually pleasing, especially during night games. Now, they’re going all the way back, much to the delight of Giants fans everywhere. “This uniform represents an important part of Giants history and we have often been asked by our fans if we would wear it again,” said Giants Chief Merchandising Officer Pete Guelli. “We started the uniform process with the NFL two years ago and are excited to see it come to life for two games this season. These legacy games will connect generations of Giants fans.”
