GeauxColonels Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 These are pics taken from the Nike Store in Las Vegas with some LSU pro combat unis on display. I'm not saying they're real...but they look pretty legit.Items of note include the use of "old gold" as they used in 2009 as well as sublimated tiger stripes on the white helmet.Get rid of the hideous "pit stains" and the large purple area to accentuate the "fly wire" and I LOVE them.

nuordr Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 If this is legit, I hope they do not wear the white pants. That is just too much white! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knnhrvy16 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Love 'em, love 'em, love 'em. Along with thier last go-around (which still ranks as one of my all-time favorite Pro Combats) LSU is proving they know how to make a sharp Pro Combat uniform. And I actually love the all-white...I'm personally a sucker for "stormtrooper" uniforms. Don't know why, but I find them very appealing. Last but not least, purple and old gold go SO well together. They really look great here, as they did on the Tigers' previous PC uniform. The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyopokes2 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 I absolutley love the sublimated tiger stripes. I just wish they were a little more noticable. Overall this may end up being one of the best Pro Combats this year....and that's kinda sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 As much as I love a purple/yellow color scheme, I wouldn't be opposed to LSU using old gold full time instead. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burgundy Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 So it is still possible to have shoulder loops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriffinM6 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Wow. That has to be legit, too legit to not exist. That would be the best Pro combat this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 One thing I don't get, however, is why Nike refuses to use the updated tiger head on the helmets.They used the ugly, too-detailed classic version on their last ProCombat helmets as well:What gives?

IceCap Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 It's up to LSU, ultimately. If they want to use the classic tiger on the helmets they will, and Nike has to, at the end of the day, go along with it. I agree, the updated tiger would be a huge improvement, but the blame falls on LSU not Nike.

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Why wouldn't LSU just wear these tonight? I'm assuming they aren't because it would have came out like Boise, UGA, and Oregon. Nike coulda had 4 pro combats going at the same time in the 2 biggest games of Week 1.

Jamikel Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 The new tiger head isn't very good either. At least the old one looks like it was drawn by a Schizophrenic, which is sort of cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSky Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Interesting that the jersey has Billy Cannon's name and number. A nice juxtaposition of past and present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powersurge Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 I might be part of the minority here, but I generally LOVE most of these Pro Combat designs. I think they push the envelope of uniform design in good and bad ways, but enough so to continue the evolution of uniform design. Love them or hate them, they are still pretty interesting and eye catching. My only gripe about these nearly perfect LSU jerseys is the dumb collar that they've designed for what seems to be all of this years incarnations of Pro Combat unis. Change the collar and you have a winner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDmo Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Interesting that the jersey has Billy Cannon's name and number. A nice juxtaposition of past and present. Judging by that pic it seems like that is the look they were going for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where exactly are these tiger stripes? I don't see them at all.EDIT: N/M, a simple tilt of the laptop screen did the trick.
