You're not seeing the other side.

Red stripe in the middle. White "gutter" on either side, followed by a blue stripe on each side.

Let's officially retire the blue helmets forever and their 15-43 record.


The last revision of the blue helmets looked pretty good but under the circumstances, I agree. :cry:

You are correct. That's what uniwatch (or someone else, or both) reported a few days back, at least.


So then it is not exactly like any other helmet before, correct? And have we ever had a non-symterical helmet before?

Thanks Pride my response was confusing. Thin blue stripe, white thice red stripe, white, thin blue stripe.

As for the striping, I seriously doubt it is asymmetrical. It looks like the same blue-white-red-white-blue pattern on these.

Black shoes are good, dangit. Seriously. Done correctly, they look awesome.

This is a great look. The "SMU" depicted on the new jerseys is kind of tiny, I hope the letters are bigger in real life.

I think the SMU will be that small, as the press release said they would be stitched on to the jersey.

I'm a fan of the stitching.

Now, now, this has nothing to do with wins and losses. The one thing I learned at SMU is that we must look good above all else. Any way we can work popped collars into the new duds?

This is another reason why I am hoping our new soccer jerseys have collars.

And by done correctly you mean 6" stilletto heels and after 5:00pm.

Why does "SMU" have to be so small on the front of the shirt? Don't we want to market the school?
