Carolina Cobras Unveil New Uniforms

Cobras Unveil New Uniforms At Fang Fest

Over 3,000 fans were on hand at the Charlotte Coliseum on Saturday for the second annual Fang Fest event, which allowed fans an up-close and personal look at the 2004 Carolina Cobras. The highlight of the day’s festivities was the unveiling of the team’s new uniforms.

Fang Fest began with an open team practice and performances by the Snake Charmers dance team. After the unveiling of the new uniforms, both players and Snake Charmers took the field for an autograph session. Fans had the opportunity to take a behind-the-scenes tour of the team’s locker room, training room, media room and television facilities. Offensive Coordinator John Gregory also gave fans an in-depth look at the Arena Football League with AFL 101 classes. WCCB-Fox 18 Sports Director Ari Bergeron was on hand to emcee the day’s events.

Keeping the same basic colors from a year ago, the Cobras new uniforms emphasize the team’s gold color scheme. The team will wear gold pants for both home and away games, red and gold jerseys for home games and white and gold jerseys on the road. The Cobras’ helmet will also be gold this season with the Cobra-head logo inside a red oval.

The uniforms were created by Riddell. The Cobras have entered into an agreement with Riddell which includes practice gear for the team’s players and coaches as well as promotional material such as mini replica helmets. The players will wear Riddell’s The Revolution helmet, which was designed with the intent of reducing the risk of concussion, this season.

Advance orders of replica jerseys will begin online at www.cobrasfootball.com later this week.
