Just out of curiosity, is this another move by Honig's to then get everyone under the NFL level to buy these uniforms, thereby making a ton of money? Honig's has done this with the MLB unies--twice.

Not involved with Honigs in any way. The NFL had Reebok develop them, and holds the licensing.

They won't be selling this license to Honig's or any other distributor.

This way, you won't see any Miller Lite commercials with "refs" being mocked. At least not in the actual uniform anymore.

I was just at Honig's. The guy showed me the NFL cold-weather pants. Oh MY...they are horrible. Black with a HUGE white stripe.

He mentioned that there have been Reebok troubles and that they are the ones selling them this year.

These uniforms highlight the fact that the average NFL official is a bit chubby except for Ed Hochuli who looks like Mr. Universe.

Not only does he look, but he is! ;)

Alright, I've came around and I guess they are ok. But, what I won't change my mind on is the black kickers. Yuck...

These uniforms are just awful. What the hell were they thinking with those stripes the way they are?

I didn't care for them at first, but the more I see them, the better I like them.
