The new jersey really doesn't do it for me :/I like them a lot. After seeing the Madden pic's for months, I didn't think I would. But I love the classic NFL look and I think the aways and homes are bad ass.

I love the home unis for sure.

I am not sure about the away yet. I was actually really looking forward to white top and blue pants like madden made it seem like.

That being said I will hold off till I see them on the field, but I like them a lot more than the crap we had for the best 10 years.

I did not like these past jerseys the day they showed them.

I couldn't agree more

The blue tops are really nice
but the white on white on white looks poor... I didn't like it with the away throwbacks, but it would be anachronistic to have blue pants since they didn't exist until 1973. However, the white tops/blue pants fits perfectly for the quasi-Ferguson style they are rocking now. I heard rumblings that the blue pants are "in the works" though.

I wasn't sure how I'd like the white helmets (still love the red) but they look great, they kept the middle stripe simple with 2 colors and the logo is as big as it should be.. Looks really awesome with the newer style 'vented' helmets too.

Jerseys are about what I expected, they look great. I like the little logo on the back, that's a nice modern touch that I don't think any other team has done (could be wrong).

I'd like to see blue pants on the away unis too.

How in the hell could the blue pants be "in the works" after all this time? Makes no sense. If they were going to have blue pants how would they not had enough time to unveil them tonight? If they seriously not have them ready in time they are a joke.

I didn't think they could mess this up with going to the retro style but of course they did. The white jerseys are horrible. They have to be the plainest jersey's I have ever seen. Better than the previous sure but that wasn't hard.

The Blue jerseys are ok but if they were going to style them similar to the blue throwbacks why not just go with the blue throwbacks which were the best?

I am slightly disappointed.

To Eb and others acting like it is strange for us to care what the jerseys are is ******ed. It is what represents our team to the rest of the nation. If they are lame it is just one more thing to have to hear about.

I like them, they're proper football unis.

Would prefer white over blue for road games, but the white jerseys themselves have a classic old school look.

Bills go straight to the top of the uniform tree with Green Bay and Chicago.

The Cardinals are the first team to put their logo on the back with the nameplate. I loved that idea when their unis came out and I love it on the Bills uniforms. :up:

Anyone else notice the belts? It appears that they are either white or they don't have them. Maybe they didn't have the belt ready or something for the unveiling? The pics are far away so its tough to see. But, I can see them.

I think they really look nice. The blues remind me a lot of the '90s look with a new touch. The whites are really cool. I really love the helmet though. The charging Buffalo really stands out well on it. JMO

There growing on me because they do somewhat remind me of the 90's. But a white helmet with white jersey with white pants is a little overdone... I would have prefered red helmets.

I really liked the blue helmets one of the members designed here. That would have been a nice touch IMO. A little something to make it a little different from the days of yore

I would prefer the blue pants with the white jersey

but otherwise these are much much much better

I like the white helmets myself, but I agree blue helmets would have been a nice change. I think they are going with blue pants for away games.

I didn't hate the way the old ones looked, but I absolutely hated what they represented to me.

So, almost any change was a good change.

I like these, especially the whites. I like the white helmet/grey facemask look a lot.

But the bottom line is, this is just another piece of a desperately needed culture change. So, it's all good.

This uni has blue pants with the white jersey/helmet on the road. Trust me, it looks really good.

...and as for the white pants/jersey/helmet...Jack Kemp took the Bills to three sraight AFL championships wearing all white...

no matter what the best bills uniforms are the ones from the early 90's maybe because the were good then

but the colors work on the field for me from the early 90's

I like the new ones so much better than the recent uni's. The two sets of uni's I like the best are the ones used in the earlys 80's like Dozer showed and the SB years uni's.

Above all if I had the power to do so they would be wearing the 60's style all the time with the standing Buffalo helmet. Traditional AFL baby :up:

love em. still would rather have the standing red buffalo but other then that, the grey facemask and the old style jerseys look great. even like the whites, and it's been forever since i could say that.

I don't see how these jerseys could remind you of the 90s jerseys in any way.

Also I can guarantee you the Alumni jerseys were supposed to be the same as the ones the soldiers where wearing. I am sure they just didn't realize they were different.

the 2002 to 2010 jerseys were a joke. the road ones sucked. i remember how confusing the whole unveiling was. I remember looking at my pal and saying, "but the uni blue and logo blue don't even match"

In a perfect world, i would have liked to see the blue pants with the white tops. i hate the all white look.

but overall this whole thing is so much better than what we had that i'll take it with no questions asked.

if the blue pants do eventually show up, great. if not, i can deal.

I have to admit that jersey design is probably the area of football that I am least interested in.

As of yet, I haven't tried to find a picture of the jersey. I figure I'll see them at some point, but it won't make one iota of a difference in how I view the Bills.

It's not my intent to suggest anyone else shouldn't care. If you love 'em or hate 'em, you have a perfect right to your opinion and it doesn't change who you are as a fan.

How hard could you possibly have tried? There are tons of pics on this site, and then there is a place called Buffalobills.com

The answer is, I've not tried at all. I did happen to check out Buffalo Rumblings for other reasons and saw one picture of the home jerseys. I'm just not into fashion, football or otherwise.

Overall the new uniforms are a big improvement compared to the ugly ones we had to look at for the last 10 years.

If I were to get picky I would prefer more horizontal stripes on the shoulders rather than the diagonal ones they have.

Also I would have preferred a blue facemask over the grayish white one they settled on.
