Yeah, I think it's supposed to have more blue in it than red and green, it looks awesome!I met with my rep today and did some mockups. This one is my #1!
Our colors are maroon and white and we have used metallic silver in the past as an "accent". I'm getting tired of metallics so I'm pitching the new Varsity charcoal grey to my AD. It looks a little blue in the image. I'm obsessed!
Gray sleeves. My favorite.Let's see if these will hold you over. These are our old uniforms, which will still be used for football/basketball games:
These are our new uniform mockups, which we are hoping will be used for competitions, assemblies, and other (less messy) events. Waiting on the AD to decide which one he likes most before we can order:
Let me know what you think. It boils down to what the AD wants, in the end, buuut I'd love to hear opinions. Not a fan of the fact that the Rebel one doesn't keep the design consistent going to the back. That is a huge pet peeve of mine.
These look gorgeous! I too am sick of the metalic silver accents, I feel ya. Yay charcoal gray!I met with my rep today and did some mockups. This one is my #1!

Looks more classic and sophisticated, too.
The rule in Australia is school teams (our teams only compete we don't do sideline), have to have full tops. For us mesh doesn't count as a full top and I believe there's a penalty involved.
oh ok.
Our oldest one in rotation is 7 years. It's still in awesome shape and I can see it being used another two years at least if not much longer! I think if they look good, are holding up, and aren't dated then why replace them? That being said, I've "retired" other uniforms that were newer because they didn't hold up as well. Specialty fabrics/braids or anything white doesn't really last in my experience.
I started cheering in middle school in 99. Personalization like what you're talking about was already gone, at least here. I did cheer pop warner in the early 90's and we did have somewhat custom, so I think it had to be sometime in the early-mid 90's? I think it depends on the school though as to different uniforms for each squad. Some programs like having distinct uniforms, others like looking unified as a whole program. To each their own there. Costs wouldn't really effect that since most uniform companies don't give bulk or number discounts on uniforms.
My favorites are the first one (wouldn't it be awesome if it was actually only $19) and the white sleeve AF one.Let's see if these will hold you over. These are our old uniforms, which will still be used for football/basketball games:

I see this all the time, and it feeds heavily into my bias toward UCA-styled things. Post pics when you can!
Noooo I hate hearing this, I have a love-hate relationship with white uniforms. Has anyone hadown a better experience with reusing white uniforms over time? And how long did everyone's last?
I also have love/hate with white! After having all white, it's more of a hate haha! To clarify white polyester holds up decently well. White motionflex is looking rough after one season. We only wore ours to comps, no games, nothing outdoors. We had to test and buy many different lipsticks that wouldn't get on the uniforms.
