Some more info on Michigan's new font

Submitted by Wolverine Devotee on

An eagle-eyed user on Twitter pointed this out to me this morning.

On the Michigan Athletics twitter page, they have been releasing a graphic every day counting down to the Nike launch.

In those graphics, they have been using the font we have seen on the new gear that's been released. Have a look-

I gathered together the new jersey number font and put it together.

Not only has the #2 changed drastically, but the #4 has severely changed along with the #5 that has been slightly altered.

I'd be surprised if WD's guess on what the 5 will look like is correct. The top horizontal line in his 5 is way too thick and doesn't match the top line thickness of the rest of the set.

WD, take a close look at the 2 in the tweet and the one on your mockup. They're slightly different. The 2 in the tweet actually looks like a hybrid between yours and the old one.

Obviously the #2 had to change in order to fall in line with the Jordan version of Nike font...not really understanding the #4 though, it doesnt even look like it belongs with that same style of font
