Rams Reveal Two New Alternate Uniforms

 By John Turney

The Los Angeles Rams continue to "evolve" their on-field identity in 2026. Following the refined primary uniforms revealed in April, the team will showcase two new alternate uniforms at a special event for season ticket members at the YouTube Theater inside SoFi Stadium.

This marks perhaps the last phase of the Rams' 2020 uniform refresh that was dubious in a lot of ways. The Rams started this year's iteration in April with updates delivering a "cleaner, bolder, and more streamlined aesthetic" to the royal blue home and white away looks. It seems "cleaner, bolder" meant fixing the errors introduced in 2020.

The Rams removed chest tags and gradient numbers/pant stripes. Now the numbers on the royal blue jerseys are solid yellow. They also added "full modern ram horn sleeves 

The team retired the polarizing "Bone" alternate, keeping the popular Midnight black Rivalries set in the rotation alongside the refreshed primaries. However, they did not tweak the Ram horn on the helmets, instead using the Fibonacci-style wave horn.

Today, the club added these:

Essentially, they are modern versions of the early 1950s uniforms and the 1960s-early 1970s white-over-white uniforms. They are using the "C" horn, choosing not to do a throwback horn on either kit, but that was expected. Clearly, the Rams are committed to not doing a true throwback.

The 1950s version (they call "Classic Sol") is yellow with blue numerals and an attempt at Northwestern stripes, as much as the jersey cuts will allow. The numbers are block, not rounded. The pants are white with blue and yellow stripes. The helmet is the same as the usual helmet. The odd thing is the socks. They show all white, not blue and that detracts from the look. But no indication if that is official.

White socks are a mistake. Hopefully they will go with blue.

The "milkman" uniforms ("Fearsome White") the Rams wore from 1964-72, jerseys are also block letters (with dark blue and black trim) with a fat shoulder stripe. The nameplate lettering is black and a fat blue stripe on the pants with a dark accent on front of the stripe. 

In the reveal photos, it looks like white socks but like the yellow jersey kit, blue would be better and it seems they can do either. The white mask on the helmet also detracts, but actually, not as much as the ones they wore in the late 2010s. 

Black (maybe a deep blue) nameplate lettering.

Blue numerals with a darker blue and black/deep blue trim.

So, there it is: the latest in Rams uniforms. There may be details in coming days. Press released often explain subtle elements so we'll await that, but overall decent attempt, the details a little odd but passable.
