Following our unveiling of the white “away” (more or less) gear mere moments ago, we now debut the new red Buccaneers uniforms for the 2014 season and beyond. (The Bucs, like some other subtropical NFL teams, often wear white at home during the warmer part of the season, so calling these the “home” uniforms wouldn’t be 100% accurate.)
Like the aforementioned white gear, the new red jersey represents a striking new look inspired by the Tampa Bay area, local culture and the rabid fanbase.
A red body is set off by contrast pewter sleeves and striking “Bay Orange” trim, the color worn by Bucs teams of decades past and long beloved by the organization’s supporters. The body’s numbers and letters also sport the team’s new typeface in white, inspired by buccaneer blade carvings and finished with a reflective treatment for maximal visibility, while the shoulders employ the same number-font rendered in red.
Though they won’t see their on-field debut until the preseason, of course, the new Bucs jerseys will be available on Buccaneers.com, Nike.com and NFLShop.com beginning in April.
