After a year of waiting, the University of Oregon has finally debuted the carbon Oregon football helmet, albeit in practice. No logos attached to it yet, but they’re still looking absolutely superlative. Check out one more view under the cut. (A close-up, to boot.) To clarify, this is a carbon-dipped silver helmet.
