hormone Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Aside from being bfbs, the Miami nights have slowly gotten worse. The OG ones were just their normal uniforms blacked out. I think they used them two years. The 2.0 featured the orange chrome mask and neon tube stripes on the lid, and these 3.0 are kinda lame using actual neon colors and a blacked out logo. That being said, any of the three are miles above adidas first go around with silver and the tire tread template (and a corresponding white version). Where it gets totally ridiculous is when they wear black, green, some recycled ocean garbage uniform and end up wearing orange like 4 times max.

You must be reading Reddit way too much. Outside of some kind of alternate identity, I doubt UCF would revert back to Citronauts. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TenaciousG Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I cannot believe I actually like the new Miami BFBS. Did they get permission from the heat to use that Miami script, or…?

Not sure who owns it but it could be public domain to an extent. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, neat. I didn't realize that either FAMU or Louisville had done this. The first (and to my knowledge up to now, only) instance I noticed it was the Ottawa Rough Riders back in the 60s. (I was bored once while working out and picked a random Grey Cup on YouTube to watch (1966). Ottawa was one of the teams, and that was the first time I'd ever seen forward-facing numbers like that.

lilgump Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Another adidas release. This time for UW. These aren't my favorite but at least it's only purple and gold school colors. Just a recolor of their normal road jersey. 3 2 1 Quote The World Basketball Championship, the Davis Cup, Ryder Cup, Iraq: Every day there's further proof that we, as a nation, are not very good at international competition.

QbDuck Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 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. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germanshepherd Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 No way that UW uniform is gonna be readable. Also, I agree with the one-time Nike Pro Combat being the best way to show off alternates. Give them one game a year to go crazy, and it’s fun. Doing it basically every week is just a damn mess. 2 Quote i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. The Pro Combat line was a bunch of uniforms that not only were designed poorly but were super gaudy and had strange details like the fat, truncated pant inserts, nonsensical armpit inserts, and the flywire. They were anything but "elite." I don't need Nike doing another batch of this, I need the Nike schools to make uniform decisions that make sense. When I think of where most are at in general, the trend is traditional: UGA & LSU have gone from custom font to block, Tennessee switched from the checkered-stripes back to traditional, Clemson's uniforms should not be touched in their current state, USC's only tweak has been the really nice pewter facemask. I could go on and on, but just like with the NFL (Browns, Bucs, Jaguars, etc), there's been a trend of teams basically telling the Nike creatives to sit down and taking back the autonomy over their identity. I don't want to see that change. I'm all for new stuff, I love it, but time and time again Nike has proven it can't be handed off a project without spewing out something that's overdesigned and clearly more of a canvas for them to highlight their own "technology" as opposed to designing something that looks good 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adidas would be amazing if they just stuck to throwbacks, these are really good. One very little thing I'm interested in seeing is if the rubber conference patch will come off like the Dodgers rubber helmet logo did 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
