Ideally, the pants should match the silver blue patina of the helmet.<br /><br />Your 1993 photo is actually from 1985:<br /><br />http://s12.postimg.org/s9xvafn3x/50852314.jpg<br /><br />From 1971-3, they were basically charcoal grayish:<br /><br />http://s27.postimg.org/s05k5n3yr/84186840.jpg<br /><br />http://www.gameuseduniverse.com/vb_forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=61409&stc=1&d=1331243723<br /><br />In 1974-5 they got significantly bluer: <br /><br />https://dallascowboysdishingthereal.files.wordpress.com/2012/11/longley.jpg<br /><br />1976-7: the perfect shade of metallic blue, imo.<br /><br />http://s30.postimg.org/lemd58i1d/78198325.jpg<br /><br />1978-81: again, they got bluer (much to my chagrin).<br /><br />http://s24.postimg.org/vihn7df9h/102979649.jpg<br /><br />1982-85: Riddell took over and the front panels of the pants were made out of shiny spandex: <br /><br />http://s17.postimg.org/ud6yj8hz2/s_l1600_27.jpg<br /><br />http://s22.postimg.org/3jov2psgh/71205935.jpg<br /><br />As I mentioned at the other forum, the greenish tint debuted in 1986.
