I am finally to the point where I can no longer deny that I need to be in large shirts rather than medium:(. What are some of you guys opinions on clothes you love to wear to practice?

I am a big fan of Under Armour shirts and shorts. I am lucky as there are a couple of outlets nearby. Picked up a shirt for $4 off the clearance rack yesterday. TJ Max or Marshall’s also has UA gear discounted as well.

I dont know if you can find them anymore since they are shutting down operations. But Russell dry fit shorts are the best shorts ever made.

Not cotton...it’s like having on a dang wool sweater after the invention of all this dri fit stuff.

If you have Academy Sports in your area they have good knock off tech shirts from their house brand BCG. You can also find good name brand stuff on their clearance racks at times.

Something I appreciated in my last stop as an assistant coach was that our Head Coach took good care of us clothing wise since we never were going to get paid a real hourly wage. This was a D1 school in Ohio with a nice budget so we ended up with 4-5 t-shirts, a long sleeve shirt, a pair of shorts, and pair of shoes every year in addition to stuff we could buy. Going into my 5th year as a head coach at a small high school with a much smaller budget, I make sure to get my assistants at least 3 t-shirts a year even though I wish I could do more. I have thought about doing a fundraiser that would all go to coaches gear but at this point, I am more focused on getting better helmets and shoulder pads and I think our coaches are understanding of that.

Honestly I stick to the big 3 (Nike, UA, Adidas) and just buy them at outlets. Find the deals. But it is so worth your time and money. When I stray away from those 3 I find that things fit weird and they don't last as long. I'm writing this before my workout right now wearing a nike shirt that is at least 6 years old. I have a couple that are legitimately 10 years old. Still legit. Definitely saved me $ in the long run.

All of the Russell stuff is great, especially for the price. I have a drawer full of their short and long sleeve t-shirts.

Bought a couple pair of their shorts from Walmart the other day for like 15 bucks. They’re fantastic. Bonus: they have the third pocket like the Russell shorts canesfan refers to. Shorts

Badger makes some really good stuff. And pretty cheap too. If your program isn't buying it go in together with some other staff guys and have a bigger order and your price should come down some.

I am finally to the point where I can no longer deny that I need to be in large shirts rather than medium:(. What are some of you guys opinions on clothes you love to wear to practice? I wear nike shorts/sweats everyday... i am pretty good at finding deals online and when i see one that looks good i'll buy some. Shirt wise i probably wear 3 a day during the season 1. Gym shirt - one of my football team t shirts... i wear it to the gym and to teach my morning weights class. 2. Dri fit shirt - i wear mostly dri fit shirts, i wear a nike or FB team shirt when i change around 9-10 Am (been my prep the last 2 years). 3. I always wear a long sleeve shirt to practice... same thing, have a few nike ones, have a few team ones...id rather wear the long sleeve than put sunscreen on my arms everyday I have 2 kinds of shirts 1. Antioch HS ... where i coach, been here a decade... you tend to accumulate shirts ... i have shirts from multiple sports. 2. Nike... a ton from nike outlets, a ton on sale online i have worn a Medium since i was 21, i am 31 now... the Dri fit shirts hold up better than normal cotton t shirts so they last years... same thing, i accumulated a lot over the last decade, just got rid of about half of them when i moved, still have a closet full of them

The Michael Strahan brand @ JCPenny. I can't speak for many of their things but I purchased a short sleeve hoodie sweatshirt for CHEAP!!! It is one of the most comfortable things I wear.
I am a big fan of the Russell wear as well. Shorts, shirts, 3/4 tights....I don't like how they seem to put a hood on anything long sleeved, but the cloth is usually under $10 per piece. I'm a big guy and I swear by their 3x shirts. Fit me better than anything else. I feel their shorts/pants run large. I can get away with a XL in those for some reason. While you're at Walmart getting those, go over to the camping section and get an Ozark Trail mug too. Just as good as a Yeti and worth the $8 investment.
