They went very traditional as well. The numbers are kind of nod to their old school Clarendon font. I like em but actually think ours are objectively better. The released away uniform is all-white.

Should have gone with one shade lighter blue, but solid. They have good uniforms and don't need to do anything fancy.

I'm not sure if this is the same blue as the last one (especially since Ucla has changed their blue often in recent decades) but the last one was the subject of a lot of research and specifically designed to show up the best on TV.

We should let Moraga know; UCLA now has BLOCKED numbers on their new uniforms. I will bet some really "in fashion" person picked these BLOCKED numbers to give their uniforms the best possible look.

+1 Agree.

More traditional good look. Not Hi-Tech.

Maybe U/A couldn't design block numbers on a Navy or Yale Blue background. Wrong chroma. Unfeasible.

Another video breaking down the uniform:

I'd like to see us doing something like this.

Yeah, that video's a good idea. Would like to see something similar for Cal.

They're solid. I also think ours are better tbh, though I have a bias. Overall, their Cal and UCLA looks are a very good look for UA. They're uniforms both schools can keep for a long time.

If/when Joe Roth uniforms are released, they'll be the best look in the entire UA catalog.

Love the Roth uniforms and have a Roth jersey myself.

Would really like to see them use the same gold pants they use in the regular Cal unis, though. The blindingly bright yellow pants used in 2007 was my only complaint.

Is that the same yellow Joe wore, or did Nike just go extra yellow in the late 2000s?

I like block numbers as well, but I do not like UCLA's blocked numbers.

I can tell by the stitching that we have all the same stuff UCLA has, they just explained it in the video.

Seems to be brighter yellow





The 2007 ones were game-used. When they first came out before the rain, they were super bright.

Only one post about blocking... Perhaps things are looking up.

I think a lot of it has to do with camera quality and night vs day game more than anything.

Well, the UCla numerals are OK as far as font, but I think the white trim on the numerals will result in the numerals looking yellow from a distance.. I hate yellow on almost anything and prefer the darker shades of gold we used in the 40s, 50s and 60s. Yellow is Oregon's color anyway.....ugh.

While I like the overall look UCla has gotten from UA, I still think the Cal uni looks better overall. We have an advantage in color because dark blue is stronger than light blue, and I think the gold in our jerseys will look stronger since we don't have the white trim around the numeral.

On Moraga's picture (above) I prefer the darker, stronger gold Muncie has, but that picture also benefits from having natural grass which absorbs rather than reflects light. Notice the fade in the pic on the right (fake grass). I'm hoping the new "turf" will have less glare and less reflecting character. It will make watching games (both on premises and on TV) better as well as making the units look darker/stronger.

Moraga,

Just think how much these Joe Roth era uniforms are enhanced by having blocked numbers.

The Roth era unis are too "disco." Blocked numbers would look good as well as a true gold color. I hate the all blue combo and wished they'd kept the gold jerseys.
