New USC Uniforms Support Military

Under Armour and Wounded Warrior Project honor our nation's military with apparel and footwear.

Three NCAA teams will sport a new look when they take the field this season and honor veterans at the same time.

The University of South Carolina, Texas Tech and the University of South Florida will wear uniforms specially designed by Under Armour to support the nation's armed forces on Oct. 1, Nov. 12 and Nov. 19.

The head-to-toe uniforms are part of the Under Armour Freedom Initiative launched in 2010 to support the nation's military through a partnership with Wounded Warrior Project, a non-profit organization that provides programs and services for injured service members and their families.
