Packers announce games for all-white uniforms, throwback uniforms in 2025
The Green Bay Packers will wear their all-white uniforms for a primetime game in September and their new throwback uniforms for a noon game to open November this season at Lambeau Field. The Packers announced they will wear their "Winter Warning" white-out uniforms featuring white helmets, jerseys and pants against the Washington Commanders on Thursday, Sept. 11 and their 1923-inspired throwback uniforms -- which includes an all-new, faux-leather airbrushed helmet -- against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, Nov. 2. The Packers want attending fans to wear white to the Week 2 showdown at Lambeau Field to "create a blizzard effect in the stadium under the lights" against the Commanders. The team will also honor Sterling Sharpe, a 2025 Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee, during halftime. The ceremony will include Sharpe's name being unveiled along the facade inside Lambeau Field. The Week 9 visit from the Panthers will feature the debut of the Packers' 1923 throwbacks, which include the leather-inspired helmet -- the first of its kind at the NFL level -- and blue and gold jerseys. In Week 1, the Packers are planning a tribute to the Super Bowl XLV team for the 15-year anniversary. The Packers have a specific theme or celebration for all eight home games this season.

Packers' new throwbacks feature helmets resembling those worn in 1923
The Green Bay Packers revealed their new throwback uniforms Thursday − and the Pack have gone all the way back. Dubbed the "1923 Classic," the uniform is meant to celebrate the club's first season as a publicly owned corporation, a stock sale rescuing the club from debt. The throwback helmets are meant to resemble the leather ones the team wore more than a century ago, painted in a manner that also makes them look distressed and shows the stitching of the day. Washington attempted a similar helmet during the 2012 season, but it didn't have nearly the level of detailing that Green Bay's new one does. The "1923 Classic" ensemble will also feature navy jerseys with dark gold numbers and striping along with tan pants and gold socks. The uniforms will be debuted for a home game at Lambeau Field, the date yet to be announced. The Packers, along with every other team, will be permitted to wear alternate and/or throwback uniforms a combined total of four times this season, up from three in previous years. Green Bay has expanded its uniform closet in recent years, adding an alternate green jersey and pants in 2021 and a predominantly white (helmet included) "Winter Warning" version last year.
