It sounds like this weekend could be a big one for midseason uniform alterations, with college football programs as prestigious as USC reportedly updating their looks on Saturday. And add to that list annual Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy hopeful Air Force, who will don new headgear when they face off with rival Navy.
Eschewing the simplicity of solid styles, the new Air Force football helmet sports a glossy, almost chrome blue paintjob, which transitions, gradient-like, to white around the edges of the lid. A chrome blue facemask finishes the look, a perfect counterpoint to the white edges and logos.
Check out a couple more photos of the new Air Force football helmets below, and watch Air Force host Navy on Saturday at 3:30p EDT.
