The Green Bay Packers will wear their blue and yellow throwback uniforms Dec. 5, when the team hosts the San Francisco 49ers.
A cold weather game was chosen because the team wanted to make sure the jerseys werent uncomfortable in warmer temperatures.
The uniforms are a modified version of the Packers 1929 uniforms. The team has the option of wearing them for the next five seasons, although they will apparently only wear them for one game in 2010.
New alternate uniform added, based on 1929 uniform: Navy jersey with navy numbers in large gold circle on chest, gold name and numbers on back. Canvas-colored pants, navy socks, brown helmet with gray facemask (to simulate leather helmet). The 1929 details have been updated to reflect current NFL uniform regulations: the circle, which was originally ~5 inches in diameter, has been enlarged, and the Reebok and NFL logos are retained in this uniform. The Packers have not yet announced when the alternate will be worn.
NFL regulations require each alternate to have a 5-season lifespan, so no other alternate can be introduced until 2015.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)
