3rd_Star_Brigade Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 BD started this trend, and it seems that Surf, Boston, Glassmen, Genesis, Revolution, Blue Knights, Pacific Crest, and Spirit are also doing it. Why the white plumes with dark uniforms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megadrive Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 (edited) It's a pretty good idea, accentuate the drill from up top with the white plumes, featuring all the benefits of black pants. Edited July 29, 2010 by megadrive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cainan Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Hardly a fad I would say. Corps from back in the day that I can think of off the top of my head...

BMBob Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I see it as a returning trend, the same way fashions in clothing seem to cycle over time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BD as well....they didn't go black plumes until 94. Almost every corps with shakos had white plumes...exceptions I can think right now would be Kingsmen and Suncoast at times.

Tyler C. Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Didn't Colts recently switch to white plumes as well? Hardly a dark uniform, but it supports the "trend" stance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeN Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Yes, Colts did this year, and Boston last year. I like it. It brightens up the field a bit, and helps make the forms pop out a little more. Much better than watching black blobs morph around the field. (Yay for white-capped blobs!) Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouooga Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Didn't Colts recently switch to white plumes as well? Hardly a dark uniform, but it supports the "trend" stance. That one made me sad. They really pulled off the red plumes well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCFan Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I always thought Blue Stars bright RED plumes were great. I wish they would try those again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
