The Navy MIDSHIPMEN have revealed a special astronaut-themed uniform for the Army vs Navy game. The white uniform FEATURES red stripes and the American flag MIMICKING the marks on the NASA spacewalk suit. The Helvetica font used for the numbers and wordmark has been used by NASA extensively for decades, from the space shuttle to signage and printouts.
The pants for the special look are highlighted with side-panels that feature the NASA astronaut pin which was adopted in 1963. The silver pin is awarded to astronauts after completing basic training and the gold pin is awarded after completion of a spaceflight mission. The pin was first given to Mercury 7 astronauts. The gloves also have the astronaut pin on the palms.
The crown jewel of the uniform is the hand painted helmets. The right side features the iconic photo of McCandless untethered with the Earth in the background, while the other side features the classic NASA logo with the Moon behind it. The center stripe has the ASTRONAUT pin.
