The Minnesota Vikings unveiled their highly-anticipated Winter Warrior alternate uniforms on Thursday, embracing the state's frigid winters with a uniform set they're calling the "coldest in the NFL."
The all-white jerseys and pants are paired with the first-ever white helmet in Vikings franchise history. Metallic gray accents, including the face mask, provide a touch of contrast alongside the classic purple.
"This uniform celebrates Minnesota and Nordic Vikings," said Vikings art manager Jackie Ramacher in a statement. "We are not only bonded by our harsh, cold winters, but we embrace them, so it's fitting that the Vikings wear the coldest uniforms in the NFL."
Several unique design elements nod to the winter theme. The jersey numbers feature "icicle drip" accents, and a Nordic Knots pattern adorns the back neckline.
