Academy Sports = Proto?

[Vex]

You read that right. I was browsing my local Academy Sports last week and came across a rack with '06 Proto pants and jerseys on it. They only had one color (black/gray) but they had quite a few of them--and for damn good prices. The pants are $60 and the jerseys are $40. That's cheaper than I could find them online by $10-$15.

Anyway, I just thought I let everyone know about what I thought was a pretty good find.

I hope you got some of them then

I bought a pair of pants. I don't need a jersey, but for the price, I may get one.
I must say that I am impressed with the overall fit and features of the pants. They were worth the money.

if I had the cash and need Id ask you to get me a pair, but I have a pair of slightly oversized very comfortable 05 protos that Im pretty happy with

I'd say that they had between 15 - 20 pairs of pants in sizes from XS to XL. I'm a 38 in. waist and around a 32-34 length and the XLs have plenty of room for me to be comfy. I really like the adjustabilty of the waist. If I ever shed a "few" pounds, I'll be able to adjust the waist accordingly and not have to get new pants.

ya Im more of a medium large guy, large would probably as tight as it goes (32 waist) and they might be a little long

I was able to try them on in the store, so that was the biggest factor for me buying them. Pants fit me wierdly. Different brands all fit differently... :D
I'm the type that has to try them on first.

[RoamingStorm]

I kind of want some empire brand stuff now

[etjoyride]

yes, the academy by me has sold proto clothing(and i believe harnesses) for over a year now

Phazeshifter, was it the one by Macain Mall? I know there is a Academy Sports down that service road, but I can't remember what the name of the one is on the other side of the bridge.
