kkuenn 3,597 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 http://allfans.co/chiefs-wearing-red-49ers-to-don-white-and-gold-in-super-bowl/ Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers know which uniforms they will be wearing as they chase the Lombardi Trophy on Feb. 2 in Miami. The 49ers will wear their traditional road uniform of a white jersey and gold pants, the team confirmed to NFL.com’s Kevin Patra on Monday. The Chiefs, the designated home team, will wear red jerseys. The 49ers were expected to lobby to wear their all-white 1994 throwbacks, even though that’s currently not allowed, according to The Athletic’s David Lombardi. San Francisco successfully applied for an exception to wear them in Week 17. The home team designation rotates between conferences. Last year, the NFC’s Los Angeles Rams elected to wear their blue-and-yellow gear, so the New England Patriots played in white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balto 723 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 All white vs all red would of be interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sith13 1,746 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 If 49ers want all white we should simply oblige and go out with all red. That would be a win-win for both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know all the rules, but the NFL doesn't allow teams to wear their non-primary uniforms in the Super Bowl largely for marketing and merchandise reasons, because they sell versions with the Super Bowl patch, etc. When teams have done so in the past it was because the "alternate" was their "primary" for that year, like when the 49ers wore the all whites against the Chargers in Super Bowl XXIX. Check out the Uni Watch blog for more information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense to keep only the current uniforms but there doesn't seem to be anything stopping them from using this year's white jersey with this year's white pants and this year's reds in our case. With the way our DL has been playing lately all-red would give them a very mean look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamixoye 604 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Their standard white jerseys and their alternate white pants are mismatched. They don't have normal white pants to match their normal white jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamixoye 604 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I like the all red but we've had a couple of bad games in it (and some good ones, to be fair). I'm cool with the standard home look from this playoff run + SB IV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won our only SB with red on white but our DL would look really mean with all-red, for some reason it gives some nasty attitude to the roster.

They just looked good, and there's a degree of intimidation with the look of the all reds I think. The white just seems so passive. sith13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I remember it the first ever red over red game was in Reid's first year against Dallas.
