The Green Bay Packers are set to once again wear their 50s Classic Uniforms this season, with the uniforms returning to Lambeau Field for the Week 9 matchup against the Detroit Lions on Sunday, Nov. 3.

The 50s Classic Uniform is inspired by the team's uniforms from 1950-1953, which was the second time the team wore green and gold in its history. The uniforms are all green, with gold numbers and stripes, matching green pants with gold stripes, and green socks.

While the early 1950s were not a particularly successful time for the Packers on the field, it was the dawn of an extraordinarily eventful decade off the field, a decade that began with the departure of the team's founder Curly Lambeau and ended with the arrival of Vince Lombardi. In the 1950s, the NFL was growing quickly and gaining nationwide interest through television exposure. The Packers organization was at a turning point and a franchise-saving stock sale helped lay the groundwork for the eventual construction of Lambeau Field and set up the team to stay in Green Bay through modern times.

A variety of items from the 50s Classic Collection are available for fans to purchase at the Packers Pro Shop, both in-store and online at packersproshop.com, including jerseys, t-shirts, sweatshirts, jackets, caps, knit hats, helmets, can coolers, pins, decals, coffee mugs, tumblers, pints and shot glasses.

The NFL's third jersey program permits teams to have a third jersey that they can wear for up to three games per season (no more than two home games) over a five-year period. The 50s Classic Uniform is in its fourth season, after debuting during the 2021 season.

Next Sunday's game will also highlight the NFL Votes initiative, a reminder to fans that Election Day is coming up on Tuesday, Nov. 5.

Also ahead this season, when the Packers face the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12 on Nov. 24, the organization will highlight the Salute to Service game, presented by Fleet Farm. In Week 13, the My Cause, My Cleats campaign will be highlighted to bring attention to causes Packers players are passionate about. During Week 16, the Packers-Saints contest will serve as the Inspire Change Game, which will honor an award recipient for their community efforts during pregame. In January, during the Packers-Bears matchup, the team will celebrate the annual Fan Appreciation Game.

More information about each game's theme and features will be announced as the games approach.
