Earlier this morning, the Texas A&M Aggies and adidas unveiled their 'Honor and Support' uniforms. The desert camouflage design is inspired by the khaki uniforms of the Corps of Cadets, the dried grasslands, and the rolling hills of Aggieland.
The Aggies will debut the alternate uniforms against the Arkansas Razorbacks on October 3. The game will also serve as Texas A&M's celebration of the university's 150th anniversary. The jerseys hit retail this weekend at adidas and 12thManShop.com.

No city can throw a party like New Orleans, so it is only right that the Tulane Green Wave sweep up the entire sport with its new alternate uniforms. Tulane's 2026 City Edition uniform and hand-painted helmet are an homage to Mardi Gras. The Green Wave will debut them during the Uptown Kickoff game against South Alabama on September 12.

The helmets and uniforms are one-of-a-kind, to be worn only once, making them highly collectible. A limited number of helmets and jerseys are available for purchase now through the Wave Warehouse, though fans will receive them after the regular season concludes.
