    The Ducks have finally revealed their long-awaited throwback uniforms:

    They’re the exact same as the ones worn in 2014, just executed on the FUSE template. The only change is the addition of the front and back bumper logos. They’re going into a bye week, so this is an interesting time for them to do this reveal. They won’t be wearing them in their next game, at Washington, but they will be worn soon after that (very soon). 

    What will they wear at Washington?

    It may well just come down to team or player preference, but in the CFP I didn’t see any Georgia or Ohio State players wearing them. At Oregon there have only been a few players opt for the conventional pad pockets, so it’ll be interesting to see this year which other schools have them at all and how many players wear them.

    Do they offer the same protection compared to regular pads? It just looks like it’s very minimal. I really like the look though

    Back before 2015/16, the Ducks used to be on a 3 year uniform rotation. Things were a little out of sorts between 2015/16 and 2019/20, but they’re returning to that 3 year rotation with this uniform set. Wouldn’t shock me at all to see a glimpse at the next uniforms in the bowl game.

    Gotcha. Any idea or rumors on what they’ll look like next year? More traditional, or a wing redesign?

    Same unis as the last two seasons. Throwbacks coming at some point in the fall. 

    Any reason for no change? Is that coming next yea or will we keep these for awhile? Potential bowl game redesign ?

    Yeah, I’ve heard the same rumors. As much as I like color vs. color, it would be a curious choice in this instance given the color blind issue. Yellow lids and pants would help, and I do think there’s a good chance we’ll see one or both of those with the green jerseys.

    Chances it’s a brand new set/template? I’m really hoping for a new template with wings or something to bring that swagger back. It’s been too bland the past few years.

  6. Any chance we ever see Nike make another iteration of the "Nike pro combat uniforms"? I just wish that Nike would come out with a elite set of uniforms for all the major schools. Update the templates, keep it the same across the board, deep research in what to have on the uniform etc.  Would help to create that hype again and show off their new technology every year.

    I did watch it, and yes you’re right that he said there’ll be all new stuff next year. But that likely means next calendar year, as in 2021, which is exactly what I expect. All he said about this upcoming season was that the full season’s uniform choices had already been selected (this was of course before the season was shortened), and that there’ll be a couple of surprises mixed in. That suggests that there’ll be a new alternate or maybe a couple new uniform elements mixed in, not a full new set. In addition, new 2020 versions of the same jerseys as last year have recently gone on sale on Fanatics, on Nike.com, and on the official Duck store site. If there was going to be a new set they wouldn’t have created new versions of last year’s jerseys to put up for sale (by new versions I mean new jersey numbers - #3 and #58 this year as opposed to #10 and #35 last year). And on top of that the players just had their photo/video day a few days ago and were wearing the same apple green uniforms as last year, with the only difference being the removal of the CFB150 patch that was present on last year’s uniforms. By and large the uniforms will be the same as last year, but I would expect there to be a new alternate uniform and/or some new pieces added to the rotation. Expect the full new set to come out in 2021.

    Makes sense! Thanks for your answer. What do you expect for the new set next year? Wings on the shoulders? completely new direction? back to old design but reimagined? what colors? Just wanna build some hype :)

    There is supposedly a new alternate uniform, and there’s always a potential that there could be new helmets, but the main set will be carried over from last year. I have no idea whether or not there was supposed to be a full new set this year that got delayed due to Covid, but it’s certainly possible. Even before Covid I really wasn’t expecting there to be a new set until next year, and now it appears that that’s the most likely scenario.

    Did you watch happy hour with the ducks? In july 2020 Kenny farr said there will be all new uniforms next year.

    If they aren't shooting promos with them, they're probably delayed like everyone else this year. Ohio State and Tennessee were supposed to get the new template this year but didn't due to Covid. 

    True, or they could be not showing them off yet?

    Yup pretty much, lol. They even had a photo shoot with one of the players in that combo (that’s where the photo I posted came from), which they usually don’t do unless they’re planning on wearing that combo at some point during the season. I’m guessing they had planned to wear that combo during the year, and then decided not to for whatever reason (likely as a result of some player input, as I know the players had a hand in the nightmare green being worn in the Pac-12 CG and Rose Bowl). They’ve shown off that combo in several promotional graphics over the last year, including the graphic for the original 2020 schedule, so I’m hoping they actually wear it at some point this year (if not this week then later this season against UW).

     

    Back to the speculation about the uniforms for this week, a few players appeared to be breaking in the new nightmare green cleats at practice yesterday, which could be an indication that they’ll be wearing either the nightmare green or yellow jerseys on Saturday (I would guess the nightmare green) instead of the apple green. If that’s the case then I hope they reprise the yellow/dark green/yellow combo from last year, or at least go with either the yellow helmets or pants.

    I’m pretty sure that in a interview with Oregon’s equipment manager he says oregon will have all new uniforms this year.
