The Football Gear That Defined a Generation

Football Before the Flash: The Gear That Defined a Generation

Vince Lombardi once said that football is not just a game, but a way of life. A game of courage, a game of sacrifice, of dedication, and a game of love.

Everyone must contribute to the spirit of the team, from the last man on the roster to every fan in the stands cheering them on every fall Sunday.

Inspired by the era in which Lombardi coached, and the classic team practice gear from the 1940s, 50s, and 60s, the HOMAGE NFL Gridiron collection features bold, simple looks built for the daily grind.

This is the era of jerseys so muddy you can barely tell which team is which. Caked-on dirt that was earned in the trenches. Coaches wearing suits on the sidelines. The early evolution of helmets, phasing out the classic leather helmet for plastic and single-bar facemasks. An era that produced legendary names like Jim Brown, Johnny Unitas, Dick Butkus, Bart Starr, and so many more.

Gridiron Gear With You From the Start

From early morning practices to bus rides, bowl games, and every touchdown in-between — be there from the beginning with a vintage-inspired Gridiron look built for grit, grind, and gameday glory.

The will to excel, on and off the field, dictates every facet of life. You can’t savor victory without putting in the work. No matter where you are in your journey, this is the shirt that will stay with you. From the beginning of the season to whatever triumphant conclusion you aim to achieve.

This is as much about life as it is about our fandom, about the battles we face each day and the perseverance to meet those challenges. It requires that same courage, sacrifice, and dedication Vince Lombardi spoke of. It was a timeless message meant for anyone willing to hear it.

Pay homage to the true Gridiron mentality today.
