andrewharrington Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 New Honoring Black Excellence uniforms have started to pop up (men’s on left, women’s on right): This is the first time in a long while I’ve worked on basketball, and the first time I’ve designed a collection this large on my own (18 teams total, each with a men’s and women’s squad). Each one uses a different pastel color set off with a custom floral pattern. The flowers are either state flowers (like the goldenrods for Nebraska and the violets for Rutgers) or flowers that are native to campus (like cherry blossoms for UW). All the men’s wordmarks come from jerseys worn by the first black players at each school. 14 1 Quote I still don't have a website, but I have a dribbble now! http://dribbble.com/andyharry [The postings on this site are my own and do not necessarily represent the position, strategy or opinions of adidas and/or its brands.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's cool the designer for these in particular is on here - can you explain the Black Excellence tag and why its purple and orange? I was trying to figure it out when NC State showed off ours and was surprised that wasn't in the description. I don't think I recall ever seeing those colors used in a Black History/Excellence theming before and was curious as to why. Very cool sets too.

The HBE crew took inspiration from traditional African dress, specifically purple garments worn by historical kings and queens. The orange was chosen to represent vibrancy, sacrifice, and passion (sort of a red + yellow = orange idea, also colors common in traditional African textiles). There are probably better sources, but this was the easiest one I could find at the moment: https://www.sikaa.com/blogs/blog/the-meaning-behind-the-colour 16 hours ago, pepis21 said: Very 90's but in a good way.

andrewharrington Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Kansas got a win in their 1922 Reverse Retro last night, honoring their first championship squad.

Lights Out Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Their logo back then was blue and red, so I'd assume their uniforms must have been blue as well. 2 Quote POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We thought about trying to do something in blue and red, making the shorts the same color, adding a short logo, stuff like that, but in the end, this one seemed the most out there, and KU loved the idea. ASU, A&M, and NC State have also worn theirs (NC State was only willing to play with the trim colors, but I still dig it).

Kevin W. Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 So, being out on the west coast, I don't bother with a lot of SEC ball but I was flipping channels today and came across the Auburn/Tennessee game. Damn, Tennessee's court is gorgeous.

kabbey520 Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Arizona will have new uniforms next season. I’m hearing they’ll be similar to the late 90’s early 2000’s uniforms. I guess we’ll see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
