The pure brown helmet I thought could have been done better. I don't think it'd have hurt too much to add some decal's to it give it a mild leather style.

They wore 'em today and I thought they were awesome. Looked like Notre Dame jerseys to be honest though, wonder who copied who....hmmm..

Lambeau, who had attended the University of Notre Dame, borrowed the team's colors of navy blue and gold from the Irish, much as George Halas borrowed team colors from his alma mater Illinois for the Chicago Bears. And like the Irish in the 1930s and 1940s, the Packers sometimes used green and gold before returning to the traditional blue and gold.

huh...so to all those "why the heck are they wearing blue today" naysayers, it looks like the team's true colors are blue and gold...we just stole green from the city's name.

I'm starting a petition, make the 1929 jersey's the Packer's official team jerseys...who else is with me?!? :)

The throwback jerseys did get some national attention, in Peter King's Monday Morning Quarterback column on the Sports Illustrated web site:

"Where'd you get those uniforms, Packers? Costco? And the helmets that looked like round FTD fall-bouquet vases? Without a question, those are the worst throwbacks I've seen, and there have been a lot of bad ones."

Personally, I disagree. They are the second worst throwbacks, after the brown and yellow (poop and pee) Denver Bronco uniforms with the striped socks:
