    We have mostly white uniforms this year. They look fantastic out on the floor. But getting the red lipstick out isn't fun. Ours have red and black in them so you have to hand wash only in cold water, but while treating the uniform for lipstick and dirt stains (don't know how because my daughter takes off her uniform after every comp. and I wash it) I have had the uniform bleed. My daughter's uniform still looks clean except for a tiny spot where it bleed under the arm and wouldn't come out. Some of the other uniforms look dirty after only one comp. season. Also, since the uniforms are white under the arms, you have to be careful with yellowing even with wearing under arm shields because none of them stay and they slip and bunch up because they are placed on a seam. While I like the look of these uniforms better then previous years, I don't know whether or not it is worth it.

    Our current uniform us white under the sleeve and we've had no problem at all keeping them clean! However, we had MAJOR issues when the uniform had mistique white fabric instead. It just soaked up all the dirt! Maybe the type of fabric and company make a difference. May I ask who made your uniforms? We order from varsity.

    my team wore mostly white uniforms a couple years ago. They look so crisp and clean but also are a pain in the butt. They get dirty sooo easy, especially when your stretching/sitting in a dirty competition venue. Also when a girl would sweat in them, you would get a gray looking stain in the armpits. I know its gross but just the truth!

    I think everyone else has pretty much said what I think about white unis. They can look great, clean, and sharp on the floor... but if a team isn't sharp and on point with their motions and whatnot, that can break them. I also imagine that they don't look great on everyone and they've got to be such a pain to keep clean!

    with a white uni, you have to be tan or else you look like casper.

    they don't look good if someone is really really pale IMO, it just makes them look whiter. but they look so good on the floor!
