Uniforms (or Costumes if you prefer)... Hits or Misses over the years.


Recommended Posts

DIBS ON TROOP!

The hit: Tie between the classic 60's/70's uniforms and 2013/14. The classic uniform IS the Troopers. Plus, you know, the Black B#### color guard. With the latest version of the uniform, I thought it was a very good way to bring back some of the classic vibe while also keeping it very modern.

Also, the Troopers drum major from any year.

The miss: 2010.

And I marched that year! The uniforms were just very bland and didn't show ANY color from the stands, which is why they added the yellow stripes and drop sashes for 2011. As a bonus, here is a photo of me in said uniform:

Honorable mention: that time in the 90's that they wore white shirts and vests or something like that. I don't have a picture. If I did, that one might actually win the "miss" award, the more I think about it.

Up next: The Crossmen

The shame you must feel. Follow the rules!

This is DCP, have a little respect.

How do you sleep at night? No one has ever deviated like that on this forum.

Shocking.

The new "VK" is not the VK of the past.

This is true. But the VK of the past never looked that bad. But, to satisfy everyone, I can pick a uniform from the VK of the past that might qualify as a "miss."

1996:

No pics to offer, but:

The good: 92.

The bad: 85, duh!

Up next, in a purely self-serving manner. BD!

to help you out (without necessarily endorsing your 1992 selection):

I had the "privilege" of marching in the hostess cupcake uniform of 1985. The tenor on the far right next to the snares is me.

Hit:

Unfortunately, I caught someone massively ticking (check the feet), but the 1992 uniform is one of the iconic looks in the history of DCI:

1984-1990 (the miss)... not so much.
