Uniform/Helmet/Shoe design thread (merged)

[YankeeVol]

Here is Tampa's uni's

They copied UT

I'm never normally one to complain about the unis, and I've liked most of the changes that have been made this season. There's one I've really cooled on though, and that's the grill-plate looking striping on the upper chest and shoulders of our uniforms. I thought pre-season that it wouldn't be very noticeable at all, similar to the checkerboard pattern inside the numbers, but it's really really visible and just... sort of jarring. I'm not really sure why we decided we needed it, since any performance benefits it may provide in terms of airflow, etc are more than likely negligible. I certainly don't see other teams suffering without it.

Like everything else, but I would not mind seeing the shoulder pattern go away for next year.

Yes. Do not like. Its definitely the most noticeable on the grays.

It's a standard Adidas template.

It sucks.

Yep, every Adidas school has them. I'm not crazy about it but I don't think they're that bad.

A&M is an Adidas school and I don't think they do? Or at the very least it wasn't readily apparent on their unis.

A&M has it on their gray unis.

Michigan doesn't have it on their unis either, and we don't have it on our away unis.

I sure hope we actually make the move to Nike. Just as a sidenote, does anyone else hate the red-orange color that the checkerboards in the numbers appear to have?it is especially noticeable on the grey fan jerseys sold in the volshop. The orange on the uni's look very neon when compared to our actual orange color on the helmet.

A&M has it on their gray unis.

Michigan doesn't have it on their unis either, and we don't have it on our away unis.

It is on all three of our jerseys and on all three of A&M's jerseys. It's a lot more noticeable on darker jerseys.

Michigan uses a different Adidas template that does not feature the pattern or the same fabric.

DeerPark if you can say, has there been any talk about changes to the helmet at all for any reason?

None.

If you do a little hunting, there's some pretty extensive discussion of helmets and the reasons why we don't have an alternate by DP12 either in this thread or in another thread around here.

DP you always bring the facts. I wasn't sure about michigan but I hadn't really payed attention to their uniforms.

I really like the look of the uniforms this year. The issue that I have is the quality. They seemed to tear up pretty quickly during a game. The shoulder pads seem to pop out more than other companies. It seems to be common with all Adidas uniforms.

 

[jimallvol]

I think it would look awesome if we had a orange helment with the smoky gray unis.

 

[Bob Mueller]

"It's been no secret that UT officials have spent periods of the fall exploring maximum apparel options with representatives from adidas, and other major players in the industry we're told.

All signs point to UT moving closer and closer to a shift away from adidas; so much so that some head coaches on campus already have told recruits to expect the Vols to just do it when it comes to making a switch."

Good job Hubbs

 

[Meachem]

Props to the guys that called it

 

[White Bread]

I'd like to see the Photoshop savy guys in here to out some Nike concepts together just for the fun of it.

Will the helmet also get any change?

I thought I saw somewhere that the helmets are under a seperate contract.

But, if they are part of this contract, I can definitely see a one off type of shell.

The best of my knowledge they are seperate contract with riddlel. Could be wrong but, thinkin that's what I had heard as well.
