I don't play football, but I train in Muay Thai. I wear a UGA official practice Under Armour shirt with the vents and it makes a world of difference. They are basically strategically placed at places where you would sweat the most, and honestly, it feels like I'm wearing a light cotton t shirt, even though the thing is long sleeved.

I have one of these and holy god drat gently caress those vents are the best thing. I mostly wear it as an undershirt with jerseys but it's also amazing when mowing the lawn or working out or something.

It's even better with the new Nike football jerseys, the vents kinda line up a bit with the vents on the sides of the jerseys, makes it a lot more comfortable in Texas heat or a crowded bar.

On the jerseys, I love the fact they have the student's individual rank on them. Great touch.

Aside from the black visor those helmets are probably the best looking thing I've ever seen attached to a football team. The uniforms are awesome, but the helmets make the whole thing work.

Or football playing midshipmen that have a distinctly militaristic look to their uniform, one that was co-opted by the police force to instill the same sense of order and respect present in much older institutions. But yeah police also wear hats with symbols

Under Armor from the looks of the logos on it.

That is how you do a two tone helmet.

Are the same footwear rules still in place since the Nike deal with he NFL? It just always seemed crazy to me that Earl Bennett got fined for wearing orange shoes with his Bears uniform.

The visors are always black on promo shots, so the photos could technically be of a generic player, due to NCAA restrictions. Every team does this with this kind of thing.

Again, I'm pretty sure that's Paul Posluzny's helmet, which already looks weird because it has to fit on his funky shaped head.

Navy switched to UA this year, Nike had the deal for Annapolis and West Point for the past 3 or so years at least.

I know that it's the stupidest god drat thing in the world, but I still think the logo on college gloves is cool.

Also the Battle of the Bulge map is insanely cool.

Everyone I've talked to today, regardless of how much they care about football, thinks the Navy uniforms were totally loving sick. UA nailed this one.

Forgive my ignorance, but is the only difference 1st and 3rd class, just the angle/slant of the stripe?

By the time you're into your senior year if you're just a 1st Class Midshipmen then you did something wrong. That year is the year they place you into leadership roles in the Brigade. With the leadership roles there's other specialized looking ranks.

But yes, pretty much the 3C mid insignia is diagonal, where the 1C is horizontal and parallel to the shoulder boards end/sleeve of the jacket.

I ordered a Luck from whatjersey back in December and it just got here in June :downs:. I got a Reggie Wayne from there a year or two ago and it didn't take nearly that long. Not only that, but this time they only sent two out of the three we ordered and stitching on Luck is horrendous, but it's actually more accurate to the on-field jersey than Wayne's. I'll see if I can get some comparison pics up tonight. Earlier in the thread someone also suggested oknfl but the group I was with voted for whatjersey instead so I can't comment on that.

I'm going to chalk the really terrible Eagles green knockoff I got in March to the uniform problems.

And never order green knockoffs again
