Actually the Giants throwback was from 1962.
They did a good job with them, but for some reason the NFL ordered the Giants to go with white pants with the blue jerseys, instead of grey. I don't remember why, I think it had something to do with TV but I don't recall. It never made any sense to me.

The Cowboys wore their 1960 throwback uniform in the 1994 MNF game against Detroit:
Notice they are wearing their normal silver-blue helmets. I never understood why they didn't wear a white helmet to match the 1960 helmet. Unfortunately, what they wear and call a "throwback" today is nothing of the sort. It is navy blue rather than royal blue, and the opposite-color shoulders don't taper to the neck like the original 1960-63 uniforms did:
I understand the requirement to add a nameplate that NFL uniforms did not have prior to 1970. But the size of the current throwback nameplate is much larger than the nameplate on the 1994 throwback; it merges with the opposite-color shoulders to create a much larger yoke-effect than was the case in 1960. I just wish would honor the original Cowboy team by using royal blue and taper the shoulders where they meet the collar and sleeve, exactly as was done in 1994.
