84BDsop Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 gosh, almost everyone is going for the tuxes!!!! (including me) they were hot!!! Actually....they were rather cool on a (ok the only) hot day show (Whitewater prelims). dunnno about the 88-93 version, tho. inh 76-87 the ruffled front was a dickey, not a full shirt...not a lot of material to hold in heat there. 88-93 meebs would hae to tell if it was a full tux ####. And it wasn;t a tux uni...it was a modified version of a US Marine officer's formal mess dress uniform (to see an original....watch the end ballroom scene in "True Lies") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the latest is more now and better than the one before it. That one was too Blah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Laubhan Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I liked the 99-03 version the best. The one where they trimmed the sash at an angle to keep it from drooping down the side of their hips. It was so clean, sleek, and perfect for the Dev's identity. Dark, cool, and flashy. It was a good backdrop for the colorguard costumes, too. I would have prefered the 04/05 version for this year. While I didn't really, really like it, it looked very mob-inspired to me, with the lapel and the pinstripes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 The 1994-03 Era Unis anyone? most definitely. where's the "other" option on this poll :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PioSop06 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 I think he meant the 94-03 Unis when he said the current one w/o the stripes, they're pretty similair, so I voted w/o stripes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
