cleanup[edit]

I tagged this article with {{globalize}} because the notion of a third or alternate jersey is used in the National Football League and other sports leagues. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 22:14, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Safe to say the new perspective's been added. Doogie2K (talk) 19:23, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]


"The National Hockey League will suspend the Third Jersey Program after the 2006-07 NHL season."[edit]

I think this needs a citation. Do we have any proof of this? It says nothing about it on the external link at the bottom of the page, and I haven't heard anything. Britishenglish 20:25, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Manchester United's Grey Kit[edit]

I did not read in the citation that 'the grey away kit was found to clash with the referees' in the first half'. However, there are several references online to the difficulty of the grey kit being seen by other players. Brenont 05:08, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I read an article that said that the NHL was going to suspend their 3rd Jersey program, so yes, there is proof of that statement. Also, I have a question if anyone can answer it. Is the NHL planning on going back to having white jerseys at home & colored jerseys on the road?Mr. Brain 18:27, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure if this is still relevant; but the link associated with Footnote 1 (which seems intended to provide support for the statement that the United squad changed out of their grey kits at the behest of their manager) directs one to a seemingly bogus advert page. Might be worth a double-checking second look, if any one's so inclined. M.Christ.Lyons (talk) 01:56, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The NHL's uniform situation[edit]

Can anyone please find out if the NHL is going to have the home team wear white at home and the visiting team wear colors on the road?

Third Jersey v. throwback uniforms[edit]

There's a fair amount of overlap between these two articles, particularly in the NFL list. Any reason not to remove references to throwback uniforms as belonging to that article, not this one? SixFourThree (talk) 20:27, 27 May 2008 (UTC)SixFourThree[reply]

high school use?[edit]

I do not know to what extent, if any, there is use of third jerseys in high school sports in the US. At least at one time, the use of "light" and "dark" jerseys was mandated by National Federation rules. Some of the reasons for third jerseys (i.e., to avoid wearing dark uniforms in hot weather) would apply to HS teams too. Wschart (talk) 19:41, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

College alternates less common than in NFL?[edit]

This is written in the College section "Although uniforms are much less regulated at the collegiate level compared to the NFL, alternate uniforms – and even regular uniform redesigns – are generally less common...." I don't think that's true, even taking into account the larger number of college teams.--Jeff (talk) 05:07, 24 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Change article title to Alternate Uniform?[edit]

All third jerseys are part of an alternate uniform, but not all alternate uniforms are third jerseys. The NCAA has several football teams that use four or more jerseys during a season. Also, in college football many teams have alternate helmets or pants, some of which are used with the primary white or color uniform.--Jeff (talk) 05:17, 24 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
