The Colts revealed a new uniform! It's also April Fools' Day!

The franchise announced Wednesday that they'll wear "crisp" white uniforms in 2015, which probably isn't happening, seeing as today is the one day of the year that jokes are thrown around like a rag doll.

Either way, the Colts have gone into great depth to show off their "new" digs, giving their reasoning behind going all-white and putting on a photo shoot with tight end Dwayne Allen.

Crisp. Clean Simple.

For years, the Indianapolis Colts’ uniform has been a near constant, a tradition beloved by all Colts fans. The groundbreaking new uniform design maintains many of the same iconic elements, but with a twist representative of the new era of Colts football. 

There is No "I" in Team.

The new base uniform color is white. In that same color are accents that in the past have been rendered in Colts blue: both the stripes on the jersey and pants, numbers, etc.  Though the colors are the same the shadows of the stitched elements add a subtle depth to the uniform. This strategy allows the individual to fade into the background and the unit as a whole to be seen. 

Well, what do you think?
