OMS Leather Vests

USASA Nationals is definitely a scene where hundreds of teams from 30+ different regions throughout the country attend and try to make a statement.  Each region (and sometimes team) participates in the annual ceremonial parade that kicks off the event on the first day.  Teams are creative and sometimes dress in flannels, neon hoodies, and other attire that draw attention to their region and/or team. Well,
OMS snowboarding joined forces with the brainpower of Roy Spaulding to do something very new and creative for this years Nationals parade and competition.  We purchased 30 leather (real leather at that!) biker vests and had VT Tees put a large hunter's orange OMS Snowboarding logo on each vest.  They turned out awesome and we definitely made a statement and received hundreds of compliments, laughs, and high fives from doing something that no one to this date has accomplished.  Shoot, we even had a couple of coaches (dare say who) not from OMS rocking the vests.  Kids wore them at awards and throughout the week, parents sported them everyday, and the coaching staff rocked them day and night. Good times to say the least!! Here are a few snapshots of the vests and we've got something bigger and better planned for next year...
