The white jerseys have less dye than the blue ones which make them lighter thus enables our team to be a little faster.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Go Cowboys!

Old farts...So, this thread is basically super old and/or conservative types want the ugly green pants to stay while younger, more forward-thinking people want the uniforms to be cohesive.
Cool. Got it.

lol, I'll rephrase, then. Conservatives vs. Progressives: The Thread.
Better? (And I'm 46. Not a 'youth' but closer to death than birth.)

Still disagree. My style choice would not fit your characterization. Right, wrong, or indifferent - "Conservative"and "Progressive" have political connotations. This discussion has nothing to do with politics. Preferring a different style of clothing is not inherently progressive, nor is preferring the same style of clothing "conservative". Its a style choice.
I've always wondered how becoming old Europe was "progressive".
Elliott is such a bad ***. He's gonna tear the league a new one this year.

Seems to be apropos as it pertains to the uniform debate.

Old Europe implies existing in the past. Europe today is different than Old Europe, bro.
Then why is it officially listed as "silver green" in the team manual? To me, it looks more acqua green but it needs to be changed to silver blue - yes blue - dull gray belongs with the blue jersey only.This "green pants" thing has been discussed some time ago here before ad nausea.

Bottom line is the pants are not green.
If it were "officially" in the team manual then you would be able to do better than just saying it's in there. Show me, don't tell me. Anyone can say anything so until you do better than just say it's there... IT'S NOT TRUE!Then why is it officially listed as "silver green" in the team manual?

I posted a pic of the new uniform pants and they are NOT seafoam green.
Thank you for showing how Wikipedia is often inaccurate and needs updating, because the new pants are not green what so ever. They are silver.This is from Wikipedia:
Logos and uniforms
Logo
The script logo.
The Dallas Cowboys' blue star logo, representative of Texas as "The Lone Star State", is one of the most well-known team logos in professional sports. The blue star originally was a solid shape until a white line and blue border was added in 1964. The logo has remained the same since. Today, the blue star has been extended to not only the Dallas Cowboys, but owner Jerry Jones' AFL team, the Dallas Desperados that have a similar logo based on the Cowboys. The blue star also is used on other entries like an imaging facility and storage facility.
Uniforms
The Dallas Cowboys' white home jersey has royal blue (PMS 287 C) solid socks, numbers, lettering, and two stripes on the sleeves outlined in black. The home pants, according to the Dallas Cowboys official media guide, are a common metallic silver-green color (PMS 8280 C) that help bring out the blue in the uniform. The navy (PMS 289 C) road jerseys (nicknamed the "Stars and Stripes" jersey) have white lettering and numbers with navy pinstripes. A white/gray/white stripe are on each sleeve as well as the collared V-neck, and a Cowboys star logo is placed upon the stripes. A "Cowboys" chest crest is directly under the NFL shield. The away pants are a pearlish metallic-silver color (PMS 8180 C) and like the home pants, enhance the navy in the uniforms. The team uses a serifed font for the lettered player surnames on the jersey nameplates.
I won't waste my time trying to find it for you right now, but I GUARANTEE you it is in there. I have seen it several times. Whether or not you believe it is totally irrelevant. It aint that serious.
