koizim Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 These are supposed to debut next season. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3253/230619...44fa5bdb0_o.gifhttp://farm3.static.flickr.com/2137/230539...c764133.jpg?v=0Well, those sure are amazingly hideous. Its based off of the design worn by Secretariat's jockey. I say, didn't Nike realize the irony in designing a basketball template to mirror a jockey's uniform? Engine, Engine, Number Nine, on the New York transit line, If my train goes off the track, pick it up! Pick it up! Pick it up! Back on the scene, crispy and clean, You can try, but then why, 'cause you can't intervene. We be the outcast, down for the settle. Won't play the rock, won't play the pebble.

scottysprings Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I can't see those being legit. Nike usually puts out decent quality uniform mockups with their releases...At least for football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Danimal Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Considering all they did was put a couple of stripes on the back, these uniforms are hardly "hideous". Basically, some of you guys simply don't like anything new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I don't know if I can bite on this one yet, Paul Lukas or not. The template is incredibly poorly done in MS Paint, as are the colors, numbering, lettering - everything. Additionally, the branding elements are in the wrong places - the swoosh should be on the shorts, and the jock tag should be on the bottom hem of the jersey.That said, if this gets greenlit, it'll have Kentucky fans longing for the days of Converse denim. Put a sublimated checkerboard pattern in the shorts? And even worse not bothering to at least have the follow-through to also put it on the jersey? Not good at all.

STL FANATIC Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 What's everyone freaking out about?The backstripes look as goofy as the stripes the backstripes on the other System Of Dress unis. Which is to say they're not good, but not terrible.And the shorts are almost for sure a subliminated pattern like the Gators scales, not a striping pattern.In otherwords, it's meh. But not bad.I think we'll be seeing a lot more schools going with System of Dress.I have reason to believe that my Fighting Illini will be.

winghaz Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 For a team with so much tradition, Kentucky sure has gone through a lot of uniform styles over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlisle1974 Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 For a team with so much tradition, Kentucky sure has gone through a lot of uniform styles over the years.Actually, their current set is only their 2nd design since the beginning of the 1997-98 season. At the time Tubby Smith took over in '97, they became a Nike school. They wore their first Nike set for 8 seasons. They've been in their current Nike set for the last 3 seasons. Aside from the current set's goofy shoulder stripes, they've had a pretty clean - almost traditional - look the last 11 years.The Pitino years...well, they're a different story (i.e., denim in '95-'96, scalloped shorts in '94-'95, zubaz prints in '93-'94). They pretty much wore a different set, sometimes 2 sets, in each of his 8 seasons.The mock-up at the top of this thread is based off a blurry cell phone pic taken by someone who supposedly works at a sporting goods store. He claims to have seen this in a Nike catalogue. Here's a link to that pic:New Kentucky Uniforms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
