  1. What looks like an H is just a navy Nike swoosh – you can also see it in the reflection. The red appears just to be an inlaid stripe.
  2. I could totally see this being a planned leak, intentionally using the away uniform. If they are indeed using four different designs, you'd have to think the road combo would be the tamest. Leaking gets people talking and them some publicity before the big "splash" unveiling.
  3. I feel like the numbers would be a little more palatable if they weren't so thick. There's not much room in the interior of some of those digits, and double-digit number, especially with a 3, 6, 8, 9, etc., could look really clunky. Is it just me, or is that navy not as blue as their old navy? It looks a little less saturated.
  4. Vandy has unveiled an updated take on their 03–05 script for their throwbacks this season.
  5. A speculative update on the specualtions risen above:
  6. What a shame, in my opinion. I always thought the Jets’ current look was a good modern set – restrained and simple with just enough flair to make them unique. All that y he “legacy” jerseys have going for them is just that – nostalgia. Without that they’re boring, nondescript, sporting goods uniforms.
  7. Vandy has updated their lids with the new V branding unveiled a couple of years ago. Previously, they had a baseball-specific block V. This year, both the football and basketball teams have used a darker, richer gold compared to the khaki-like color used by most programs. Not sure if that will be the case for baseball (and doesn't seem like it will be based on the above photo, but we shall see). I'm also interested to see if they update their script – the tittle of the 'i' was the old Star V logo.
  8. I’ll throw in the caveat that this game had some heavy rain, so that combined with the shiny fabric skewed things a bit. They were a much closer match on normal days.
  9. I broke that down back in August. Basically, the new gold pants are a completely different model than their other pants – a model not found in the public Nike catalog or worn by any other college or pro team. That led me to believe they were outsourced. The second tweet in that thread really shows the difference, and the Saints definitely lean toward Vandy’s 2022 gold. The change was much more pronounced on the field than I anticipated. I think it showed best in their games against Florida – definitely gold and not “pale khaki”.
  10. I feel like this used to be somewhat common, but it's definitely making a resurgence. My hypothesis is that turf teams, mainly LA, started doing it to avoid trying to perfectly align the painted edge with the permanent white edge of the turf. If you look at the Houston image, the green-to-white line isn't exactly straight since the different colored fibers get bent in different directions. Painting right on that edge may be too difficult or time-consuming, so it's easier to give the painted background a little margin. Then, teams like Denver liked the look and hopped on the trend.
  11. First in-action look at the throwback Oilers helmets for the Titans. Initial thoughts – the stripes look extra large and modern helmets cause some awkward logo placements.
  12. This is somewhat unrelated, but I noticed that Oregon has a custom neckpiece on their regular uniforms – not the standard mesh like all other F.U.S.E uniforms, including these throwbacks. Looking back, it seems like that's been the case since 2021.
  13. Do we think it's just a coincidence that the V-seam is the same angle as the Nike swoosh on the F.U.S.E. template?
  14. Not the first time. The last uniform set also had a "black jersey but everything that's white is gold" jersey. Coincidentally, that uniform was also first worn against Kentucky back in 2021. Also of note – this jersey is in the FUSE template, but the rest of the set debuted this year is in the Untouchable template.
