Super Bowl 58 is 49ers-Chiefs uniform rematch, too
Get the uniforms ready: We know what the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers will wear Sunday in Super Bowl 58.
Kansas City will serve as the “home” team in the matchup at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, meaning it got to choose first what uniforms it wants to wear. The decision has been made, and the Chiefs will wear their home red uniform for the game. Meanwhile, the 49ers will don their traditional road white uniform.
What pants both teams will wear was not released, but the Chiefs will likely wear their white pants with their red helmets while the 49ers will likely wear gold pants to match the gold helmet.
Chiefs vs. 49ers Super Bowl uniform déjà vu
If the teams look too familiar when they play for the Lombardi Trophy next Sunday, it’s because it’s the same exact look both teams wore for Super Bowl 54 in 2020. Kansas City won that game 3120 at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.
Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl uniform history
This will be Kansas City’s sixth Super Bowl appearance and it’s had good results when sporting the home uniform. When wearing home red, the Chiefs are 2-1, with wins in Super Bowl 4 vs. the
Minnesota Vikings and Super Bowl 54 against the 49ers. The lone loss came in Super Bowl 55 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
In the white uniforms, the Chiefs are 1-1, losing in the first Super Bowl against the Green Bay Packers but winning in them against the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl 57.
San Francisco 49ers’ Super Bowl uniform history
San Francisco will be playing in its eighth Super Bowl and it’s also had favorable results wearing white uniforms despite losing the last time they were worn. The 49ers wore white when they won Super Bowl 16 against the Cincinnati Bengals and Super Bowl 24 against the Denver Broncos.
The 49ers have worn red more and are 3-1 in them. They won Super Bowl 19 against the Miami Dolphins, Super Bowl 23 against the Cincinnati Bengals and Super Bowl 29 against the San Diego Chargers in red. The lone loss in red came in Super Bowl 47 against the Baltimore Ravens.
Super Bowl uniform facts
For those superstitious fans, the road white uniforms have been the most successful in Super Bowl history, winning 37 of the 57 games for a 64.9% winning percentage. It’s been a recent dominance as well, with 16 of the past 19 champions wearing white in the Super Bowl.
