I agree the black PT shirts are nicer. The shorts are almost exactly the same except for the logo embroidered on the bottom. I'm having my wife see if she can embroider the same logo on my 24 pairs of old shorts.
The one thing I don't like about the new PTs are visibility. I can't count how many times I almost ran over a black soldier running alone in the morning because from the back, he's completely invisible until you're close enough to see his belt.
