25 Years of Uniforms Gallery II

South Shore Drill Team, Chicago, IL
 
The uniforms are a very big part of the South Shore Drill Team look and experience! Each uniform is custom-tailored for marching members, and the cost for the uniform, footwear, and all accessories is generally $350 per youth. Members have input into the uniform design, which changes every year. Because the team performs year-round, the outfits need to be cool in the summer and warm in the winter months - and very sturdy! Each year, the new uniforms are unveiled at the Bud Billiken Back-to-School Parade in August.

In 1999, the outfits were modeled after the movie The Matrix.


For the Millenium Year 2000, South Shore Drill Team members wore silver jumpsuits.

In 2001, the team borrowed ideas from another movie, Gladiator. Keeping track of the eight different components to each uniform was a challenge!
