Since making their debut in 2011 with the Trinity Trojans in Euless, Texas (They wear black for home games and to shocking gasps from the crowd came out in dark red) the NIKE Pro Combat Uniform System has caught fire in the high school ranks and it is revolutionizing the way players look on the field of battle.   Whether you like them or not they definitely create a buzz.  The system is complete with everything you need for ultimate protection.  It is also designed to be lightweight and breathe better.  The following is from NIKE:

The Nike Pro Combat System of Dress incorporates the latest in performance innovation and design from the world’s most renowned athletic outfitter.  The redesigned base layer facilitates the uniform’s overall innovation, delivering the ultimate in lightweight protection for maximum speed. Strategically placed seams, pads and cooling zones also help minimize distraction and optimize protective coverage.

The Nike Pro Combat System of Dress integrated uniform system provides enhanced durability and innovation from the inside out.  Robust padding without the bulk offers optimal low-profile impact protection specifically throughout the crucial “hit zone” between the knees and shoul

ders. Nike Pro Combat Deflex padding has also been integrated in the hip and knee areas of the pant for crucial impact protection that stays in place. The base layer now features customizable protection, incorporating a thin, incredibly strong carbon fiber plate that can be placed on the thigh padding where needed.

The uniform system design also emphasizes improved thermoregulation, including the Nike Pro Combat Deflex padding layer, which is constructed with fabric selected for its ability to help keep the body cool and wick away sweat – making the uniform, and player, lighter and dryer. The jerseys are made of four-way stretch woven twill that sheds moisture. A Flywire collar eliminates two layers of fabric for improved breathability, providing a more stable anchor to keep the jersey in place.
