Black pants, a comparison

[ODJ]

What do you wear under the pants? I normally wear McDavid compression tights under my knickers.
My crew bought the GD's. Haven't worn them yet.

I wore black compression shorts. When it gets cold, I'll wear UA Cold Gear tights.

I always wear UnderArmour ankle length tights no matter what the pants I have on over them. With the black pants (at least the ones I own) you can wear whatever under them you like. That is the beauty of those pants.

Peace

Yup. It's not like anyone will see what's under them.

I wear UA compressions....actually Heat Gear version shorts now, and then the UA Cold Gear full length base layer when it gets actually cold out.

We wore ours on Saturday in Milwaukee at Nicolet. A little warm, but were nice to have when the rain came down for a good half an hour. Awesome stuff, and much better looking IMO...oops. There's that opinion thing again.

Good for you. Far as I'm concerned, we've worn our knickers for the last time this season. It will either be short sleeves and shorts or long sleeves and pants the rest of the way. Only supposed to be in the mid-60s on Friday, so by the time kickoff rolls around, it will be perfect weather for the pants.

We're in Two Rivers this week.....just off the big pond. This will probably be our first go at it with the black pants. Looking around the field and even watching TV replays.....I think the pants are far and away a much better and more professional look.

For the record....opening kick-off temp was 53 degrees at the site. 25 to 35 MPH constant winds....3rd and 4th quarter there was lake-effect mist and drizzle. Water beaded on the outside of the pants...a beautiful thing.

Why both teams thought they could pass effectively is also beyond me.

Ashwaubenon on Friday....knickers are done for the year, I presume.

Wore my black pants (Hoing's) last night for the first time. 8th grade game, played in what was basically a swamp (it had been raining all day, and there were several locations on the field with ankle-deep standing water).

Must say, I was very glad to be wearing those pants. They held up very well, and my legs stayed dry throughout the entire game. Cleaning them postgame was a simple as tossing them in the washing machine.

My shirt and shoes, however, were a different story. Probably going to make that shirt my permanent "mud game" shirt.

Ya, really wishing mine weren't on back order. Why or why did I wait for the rest of the crew....?

It's 57 with a 29 mph wind. Guess what we'll be wearing tonight.

Cold weather. What's that?

What is this cold weather thing you guys keep referring to?

With this wind, I may be wearing Cold Gear and gloves tonight. Amazing -- yesterday it was in the mid-80s before the rain rolled on through.

I think they're talking about when it rains and drops the temperature down from the high 80's to low 80's.
