I'm a huge fan, but I always preferred the 75th Anniversary uniform they wore a few seasons ago. Recent NFL legislation has banned the use of alternate helmets for throwback uniforms.
An NFL spokesman reported:
“This offseason, we communicated a recommendation from the Head, Neck and Spine Committee and the Player Safety Advisory Panel to those teams planning to wear throwback uniforms for at least one game this season. They recommended that players no longer wear different helmets as part of a ‘throwback’ or ‘third’ uniform. … Teams may continue to wear throwback uniforms under league guidelines, but players must wear their regular helmets. The outside of the helmet can be modified by removing or replacing decals, as long as it does not affect the integrity of the helmet."
So in honour of the Steelers' 2007 75th Anniversary uniforms, let's take a look back at the Steelers' kit in the 1950's and early 1960's:
