WordsOfWisdom Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 The legacy green jerseys of the Leafs have been trotted out lately for St. Patrick's Day/week/month?... My thinking is, they messed up because they didn't include the tan colored trunks. It's not supposed to be all green. It's supposed to be green and tan. If you're going to "kick it 1926 style" then get the pants right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WordsOfWisdom Posted March 17, 2019 Author Share Posted March 17, 2019 Tan and green are meant for each other. Case in point: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WordsOfWisdom Posted January 2, 2020 Author Share Posted January 2, 2020 Fortunately, the Dallas Stars decided to wear Toronto's St. Pats uniforms during the Winter Classic, so we can finally see what they look like: There you have it folks. The green with the tan colored pants. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IllaZilla Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) My feeling on throwbacks is if you're going to do throwbacks, then do throwbacks in all their simplistic and/or ugly glory. Don't edit it because someone in marketing did a survey and decided that people liked the throwback jersey but not the throwback breezers, so we're going to change the breezers to match current taste trends... Toronto should have made them just as they were. No green breezers. Otherwise to me it's just a third jersey...

So MLSE got them wrong both ways! At no point in time did Toronto ever wear uniforms with green pants. They wore green and white, then green and tan (brown), then they switched to blue and tan (brown), and then finally just blue. Here are most of the examples: All pictures are from the NHL Uniforms database. See the website!
