Denver Broncos ugliest uniform no. 2: 1966 throwbacks

I’m sorry that I’m going to have to burst the bubbles of so many with this one.

This might come across as a hot take, even. Perhaps this will go down as arguably my least popular opinion, maybe ever.

The 1966 throwback uniforms for the Denver Broncos are some of the worst in franchise history.

These are bad.

With all due respect to the designers at the time, these uniforms should never again see the light of day.

There’s a reason the Broncos changed to a different look as quickly as 1968.

The logo on the helmet made the team look goofy.

The combination and ratio of orange to blue on these uniforms is atrocious.

A lot of Denver Broncos fans revere these uniforms, and I get it. For a large section of Broncos Country, these were the uniforms the team wore when you started your fandom.

You’ve been with the team from the beginning. A true OG.

Unfortunately, from a design and aesthetic perspective, these uniforms are as ugly as ugly gets. The Broncos haven’t worn them since the 1990s and they should stay in the archives for good.
