Team will wear new #IRONWOLF unis for Syracuse contest on Nov. 21
RALEIGH, N.C. - As part of NC State's annual Military Appreciation Day festivities on Nov. 21, the Wolfpack football squad will debut its new #IRONWOLF uniform. Developed in partnership with Adidas, the iron gray uniform will be worn to pay homage to the brave men and women who serve our country at home and abroad.
"Military Appreciation Day has become a very special event for our team," said head coach Dave Doeren, "We wanted to wear our next alternate uniform to honor those who serve and I think the color and design of the IRONWOLF uniform accomplishes that."
The #IRONWOLF helmet features a gray and black camouflage pattern, emblazoned with the classic red NC State logo. Red wolf claw marks highlight the shoulder pads and pants, the gloves and the pregame warmup shirt.
The inspiration for the name comes from one of the Wolfpack's team mottos: "Iron Sharpens Iron."
"When two iron blades are rubbed together, each blade gets sharper and more efficient," Doeren continued. "The same is true in the military and in football. We rely on each other to make each other better."
