illini1 Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I haven't heard any rumors of this, but every website I go to has the Illinois shorts and jerseys on clearance. It looks like they're going to be getting new uniforms, probably SOD. I wish I noticed this earlier. I talked to Bruce Weber a couple of weeks ago at an event. I would've asked him.

illini1 Posted June 11, 2008 Author Share Posted June 11, 2008 Wow nice job Illini. What does system of dress mean exactly?It's a style of uniform that Nike came out with a couple of years ago. It's basically really tight jerseys and super baggy and long shorts. If you do a search on here, you'll find lots of topics on the System of Dress uniforms.

lbr218 Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Wow nice job Illini. What does system of dress mean exactly?System of Dress is a series of basketball uniforms by Nike. Its main components are a (very) form-fitting jersey top and (very) loose and "flowing" shorts (if you can call them that- they're almost down to the floor!).Here is the SOD website:Nike System of DressEDIT: Oops, sorry Illini, you beat me to answering the question that was directed at you anyway... I shouldn't have jumped in there and stolen it from you. Sorry.

According to the site, they are optional to wear as a base layer beneath the form fitted jersey.I think I'm one of the few that actually really likes these jerseys.Except when they look ridiculously plain like West Virginia's: |Â BROWNS | BUCKEYES | CAVALIERS | INDIANSÂ | Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the site, they are optional to wear as a base layer beneath the form fitted jersey.They made these for the first schools that had the SOD uniforms (Florida, Syracuse, and Ohio State), but I don't think anyone ever wore them in a game. I think they stopped making them for teams since then. I haven't seen pictures of any since these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferrousoxide66 Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Sorry for sounding like an old codger, but those long shorts are utterly ridiculous. Pantaloons, I tell you. How is that designed for "maximum athletic performance" when everything else is getting tighter and more formfitting? Bring back the Stockton-esque nuthuggers.

CS85 Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 These look really boring. Imagine how these unis will look on really fat guys.

bowld Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 has anyone bought a swingman SOD jersey? im interested to hear how they fit on "normal" shaped people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harperdc Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I haven't tried one on, but I saw the Oregon ones at the bookstore after the Ducks debuted theirs. Really high quality, the fabric feels really nice and pretty soft and the numbers were nicely stitched. They're almost like a really nice soccer jersey than a traditional basketball jersey.that said, I think they probably run a bit bigger in the swingman set (they certainly looked that way) so no real worries for fatties.also, I'm really frustrated that Oregon's green actually are camo :x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
