New Nike Uni's for UCLA game.

Post by Macho Grande »

http://news.nike.com/news/nike-basketba ... ball-teams
Each school’s home uniform will feature a white base with school-specific color lettering and a 26-degree speed graphic of an iconic symbol of each school across the side of the game short. The 26-degree angle of each school’s graphic was inspired by the chevron on the classic Nike Windrunner track jacket that debuted in 1978. Each graphic represents a distinctive basketball point of view, based on the roughly 1,000 directional changes, or "cuts" that a player might make in the course of a game.

The uniforms will make their debut on-court on the following dates: Kentucky (vs. Auburn) on Feb 21; Arizona (vs. UCLA) on Feb 21; Baylor (vs. TCU) on Feb 21; Oregon (vs. Utah) on Feb 22; Duke (vs. Syracuse) on Feb 28; Florida (vs. Tennessee) Feb 28; and Syracuse (vs. Virginia) on Mar 2. Connecticut is expected to debut its uniform during the conference tournament.

At least I don't hate them. I don't really like them because they're plain to the point of being practice jerseys, but understated is preferable to crazy art experiment.

Think those are too ugly for most fans who can afford them.

Don't get the socks at at all.

Not a big fan of these uni's but we've had worse. Too plain looking for my tastes.

Don't understand the hate for the jersey. I like it, I like that it's understated, which isn't to say I don't like the busier shorts and socks, because I do. I even like the corny "Marty McFly" vest as someone else called it.

How is that symbol on the shorts "iconic for our school"? I'm obviously not gettting something here.

I appreciate that the jerseys are traditional tank type jerseys, worn up until ~2005 when the cbb world inexplicably decided to make everyone wear basically t-shirts with the arms cutoff aka women's jerseys

The A should be bigger on the helmet.

I don't give a flying fuck if we dress like GWAR, I just want to crush the soul and legacy that is called UCLA.

Does look practice jersey esque, but definitely like the "tank" jersey, never been a fan of the cut off shirt look.

I sound like an old guy but what was wrong with keeping the same uniform for many years with two versions - one home and one away. Fuck Oregon football for turning college athletics into a constant fashion show.

True, but more importantly - it is what Nike wants.

I wonder if we will wear these again this year? I would like to see them for a game or two. Oregon, duke, Kentucky, orange have all wore them this year again. Do you think we will be chosen to wear what ever special uniforms Nike comes out with this year? I would think so with signing out new contract with Nike and fully expect new football uniforms this year!

I'm a big fan of minimalism and I'm really digging the jerseys. Not really down with the shorts though.

I'd like to see alternate Arizona home uniforms in a kind of metallic red with shirts distributed to fans made out of actual tinfoil.
