Nike: what do you want to see from them?

Script Michigan hockey sweaters

A nice, high quality (but comfortable) pair of Jorts.

Football away jersey from the late 90s

Script Michigan hockey jersey

Traylor era basketball jersey

 

These were hideous

Hot babes and Countachs.

1) Cotton hoodies/crewneck sweatshirts that say 'Michigan Football' in our normal font with a swoosh. It is amazing how adidas screwed up the most basic designs by trying to be edgy. Classic is timeless. It sells. Don't mess with it by adding extra stripes or other nonsense. Make high quality basic pieces, and let the kids eat up the more exotic stuff.

2) You'll notice the first word for #1 begins with 'Cotton' - I looked at Tenneesee's athletic apparel site (http://shop.utsports.com/) and was disappointed to see that many of the hoodies/crewneck sweatshirts are polyester. Polyester sucks. If I'm going to drop $60-70 on a hoodie, it better be made with at least 70% cotton.

3) These home jerseys - use the same design from the 1995 season; 

Subtle, classy. Only those looking for the M could see it.

Use the 1999/2000 away jersey (but move the swoosh to the left shoulder- 

Do these three things, and I could live with a 'uniformz' jersey they wear once a year during a night game.

 

Harbaugh!

I've always liked the Block M on the sleeves. That with a classic look with very little piping and I'll be a happy panda.

Them to provide us with athletic apparel

I hope we still use the football jerseys with the swoosh at the neck, it makes it a little more unique than what most schools are doing

No more got. damn. piping on the jerseys

With a brand like Nike I'd like to see a massive 1 month splurge of say 14 football recruits in 30 days. 

Adidas held us back from such things so thankfully we have a brand that kids like so they will actually consider Michigan in the future unlike now.

This shirt.  I only wore it after victories, and luckily back then I wore it quite a bit.

I know they kept using maize as a color name, I think I remember talk on here about the name maize. 

I hope Bball gets to wear some of the retro Jordans w/ black socks. I don't really care for the newer Jumpmans.

any uniform from 96-03 and I'm cool. When it comes to jerseyz, they'll want to try things but it's up to us to decide what is ok to wear. IMO, no more than once a year (never in bowl games if the home team) we can wear some slight alternate. If "bumblebee" was an 8 out of 10 - scale is not about quality but distance from original - then nothing more than a 2/3. I'd actually love home unis that were straight up dark navy, knee high dark socks, dark cleats & a basic or darkened matte helmet. The away unis being the same but white being used life the home blue with very minimal maize piping. Finally, larger numbers on both unis. Seems odd but I'd like the numbers back to when UM & osu both had huge numbers but osu kept them. Go back to that or the opposite and make them smaller, very minimalist. Basically remind everyone that Michigan is Maize & Blue but that what really makes our unis is the helmet. I'd even be ok going back old-school with the helmets by avoiding any matte, chrome, etc & having stickers. Never "clean" the helmets, leave the chipping and paint trading on them all year unless it ruins the wing. In fact, maybe only repaint them after a loss.....almost like a psychological punishment. How boss would those unis look st the end of the year with helmets that are just beat to shit? the way I see it in my head looks awesome lol.

Nike Michigan shirt that had Michigan Football, engineered to exact specifications! I hope they remake this one since I'm a BSE graduate. I really liked that shirt!

I only want the maize color they choose to match throughout the entire uniform. INCLUDING THE DAMN HELMET!

I need me some maize and blue Nike Elite wear...

What I want to see with Nike:  Maize (real Maize) and Blue jerseys done in classy style, black shoes and swooshes, red roses and glittering National Trophies.  But that's just me.

Everyone go look on the um_tykes Twitter page. They have a pretty good pic of what the uniforms could look like

of Nike products and $$'s.  Can we haz all your money now, plz?

These were hands down the best away jerseys:

Get the colore MAIZE correct on everything from the jerseys to the M Club banner that the palyers touch when taking the field.

Just basic, no-frills stuff that is comfy and fits well. Adidas crew neck collars are too narrow for my thick neck (I'm 5'7 and 150 lbs so I wear a size small but my neck is almost 16"), the short sleeves are usually too baggy, the tank tops are too long, and the hoodies all make me look fat. I would love a plain blue or yellow fitted t-shirt with just a block M. Same thing with tank tops - just a solid color with a block M.

I would love to see better academics-oriented apparel too! My favorite Michigan sweatshirt is a solid blue crew neck with just the University of Michigan academic crest in yellow. I get compliments on it all the time and I wish I could find it, but I haven't even seen it in t shirt form in 4 years.
