MikeD Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 The Cadets former uniforms... especially the colors chosen 80 years ago... were just perfect, imo. The Colors initially chosen by the Corps were not just willy nilly either. But my Colors were well maintained by Aunt Nellie. ...and about 10-12 safety pins to hold me together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bossop Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 In 1962, I was blown away by the turquoise cadet uniforms of St. Rocco's from Brooklyn, NY. As a member of the Lt. Norman Prince "Princemen", I felt our uniform was the best among the senior corps of the day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Holland Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 My favorites... Bridgemen Cadets (maroon) Madison 90's era. (or this current one that's a throwback to it) Crown 90s with the purple jackets & white pants Anaheim Kingsmen Troopers (when they wore vests over white shirts) Caballeros silk shirt red sash. (yeah... dropped DCA in a DCI forum. boom) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xandandl Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Lol, I had been trying to look for that angle of the uni for forever. That's me in the middle. Sir, you wear it proud. GR would have liked that a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cappybara Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Can't really say "best ever" but here are some of my favorites: Phantom 2006 - my favorite of all time. I can only pray that Regiment returns back to this style of uniform and gets rid of all the extra bullsh*t frills and fringes that they've been adding onto the uniform lately. Last year's uniform actually would've looked really great if it didn't have all the stuff hanging off their shoulders. Bluecoats 2014-2015 - The Bluecoats' uniform pre-2013 was a little too simplistic and looked too much like any other high school band uniform. Bluecoats' new look makes them unique and is actually a literal blue coat. SCV 2013 - What a classic look. It screams SCV and has enough "extra" flair on it so as to not appear bland like past SCV uniforms did. Cadets 2012 - I am not a big fan of Cadets' classic uniforms, I'm pretty vocal about it. The color scheme reminds me of McDonald's. But these altered unis for 2012 were awesome. Took the basic design of the Cadets' uniform (which I do actually like) and used a color scheme that works a lot better (in my opinion) Blue Devils 2013 - Can't say enough good things about it. Had everything I love about BD's new style. Huge, in your face plumes, an exposed sparkly sleeve, half cape, and pant stripe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cadet altered uniform wasn't actually altered yet borrowed from what was the guard captains uniform of early years. Was a DM uniform also .
