Who's with me?
God it felt great seeing those uni's again. I would give anything to ditch re-brand and go back to those beauties.

Old school jerseys aren't bad but those helmets are hideous.

I like old school jersey. But the 70's era logo is very dated. I still like the one they had from 1997-2013.

I still prefer our current uniforms but I do like wearing the throwbacks a few times a year.btfu149 and Stringer Bell like this. -
I love all of the uniform. The helmet!!! the colors, the uniforms!!! LOVE THEM!! I would buy that stuff, have not spent a penny on this new stuff.

Continuing to wear them a few times a year and offering merchandise is their way to keep those calling for those uniforms full time somewhat happy. -
I think we should go back to the uniforms and helmet decal we wore when we were undefeated and never change the uniform again.

I don't care so much about the uniforms.
I love the field all painted up though! Do that every week!Pandarilla likes this. -

Okay, the 60/70's uniform is good for a throwback. The last logo before this one was trash.

You can bring back the uniforms, I guess, the new ones are better though, but burn the previous logos in a dumpster fire and never trot that heinous crap out again.
There is nothing good about them and people ONLY like them because they are used to them.MAFishFan likes this. -
I frequent a forum dedicated to uniforms and logos in sports because I'm a nerd and the number of people who post "they should bring those uniforms back" is astounding. Doesn't matter the team or the sport, fans just eat it up. It's a nostalgia thing, IMO. -
I'd love to, but I have a deep seated fear of being pepper sprayed by mascots... Flippus lachrymaphobia, it's a real thing.

Love the jersey and like the logo. It needs to be half that size on the helmets.

And so there actually is an online petition to go back to throwbacks - http://dailydolphin.blog.palmbeachp...i-dolphins-to-go-back-to-throwbacks-for-good/

Listen to Garfinkel's 10/26/16 interview about this. Sounds like we're locked in for a few more years of this current mess of colors & logo.

I'd rather we keep our current jersey but continue to wear these once or twice a year, perhaps add a white throwback too.

Per Mando:
"New uniforms and alternate uniforms will remain the same -- for now
Since the Dolphins donned their alternate "throwback" uniforms in last Sunday's victory over the Buffalo Bills, fans have been constantly asking me about the possibility of using that uniform the rest of the season.
That, uniform, by the way is a replica of the uniform the expansion Dolphins wore their fledgling season in 1966.
And the same fans and many, many more who asked me about the alternate unis also asked Dolphins president and CEO Tom Garfinkel. He's been flooded with requests to shelve the new uniforms, first instituted in 2013, and go with the 1966 uniforms.
But that is not going to happen.
Because the NFL will not allow it.
The Dolphins are required by league rules to keep their current uniforms for a number of years and they are still within that time period. Moreover, any change to the current uniform would require prior notice years in advance.
The alternate uniform also will not change for a period of time. It was debuted last year on the team's 50th anniversary season but was planned as early 2013. The alternate can be worn only two times per year, per NFL uniform rules.
So the fans that want the change to the '66 unis aren't going to get the change they wanted anytime soon. But they will likely see that popular uniform once more this season -- if the Dolphins are smart and want to please their fans.
Whether that throwback look becomes the next generation Dolphins uniform change at some future date has yet to be decided. That will be largely up to owner Stephen Ross, Garfinkel and whatever apparel company is doing their uniform in the future." -
It seems like I'm in the minority as I love our new uniforms/logo, don't get me wrong I enjoy seeing the throwback here and there I just don't want it every Sunday, it would seem less special to me then. It's a great part of our history but I was excited when we changed that I didn't have people making jokes about the "Special Ed" Dolphin or "Short Bus" Dolphin with his helmet on.
For those who watch South Park, it would seem that people wanting the throwbacks as our full time uniform are eating too many Member Berries.ChrisKo, Rocky Raccoon and Fin D like this. -
