Spider-Man is getting his black costume back in this week's historic Amazing Spider-Man #800, Jean Grey currently has an outfit that resembles her 90's attire in X-Men Red, and now it is time for Sabretooth to get the nostalgic treatment. During Marvel's August solicitations the villain turned anti-hero was seen sporting a familiar, yet new costume on the cover of Weapon X #22.
If you watched X-Men: The Animated Series back in the 90's or played X-Men vs Street Fighter, maybe even read the comics, you will recognize this new outfit Sabretooth has. It's technically a "new" costume since the color palette is different but the shorter hair, trench coat, headgear, and gloves are all a clear tribute to his older outfit.

The August solicitations are hyping up a new version of the group currently in the comic, calling the group Weapon X-Force. Old Man Logan left the group some time ago and it looks like the roster will go through some shuffling, though it's clear that fellow 90's villain Omega Red is joining them.
Now that Wolverine is coming back and getting his own series in September, it will be interesting to see if Sabretooth stays an anti-hero. The character hasn't been a true villain for some time but that could change when Logan returns.
Weapon X #22 comes out this August.
