College football spring practices are getting underway nationwide, a time to preview new personnel, adjust to lost players, get acclimated to new coaching staffs, or debut new looks. Or, if you’re a certain college, located in Corvallis, represented by castors, a time to do all four. Behold, the new Oregon State spring practice helmets.
The Beavs already boast impressive headgear variety: a matte black helmet sports stripes and no logos; an ultra-reflective orange helmet features numbers on either side; and a white helmet is adorned with the Beaver head logo.
In contrast, the new Oregon State spring practice helmet is timelessly simple, as a blacked-out lid is emblazoned with orange-outlined white “Beavers” script on either side, aesthetic understatement at its best.
At the moment we’re just expecting these to be a spring-exclusive, so don’t look for them come regular season. We’ll let you know if that changes, of course.
