As you may have heard, Michigan opted out of the long sleeve camo uniformz for March. However, it appears adidas had planned on having Michigan wear them and even made them available for sale to the public.

I was thinking this too (jersey only, shorts are awful). In fact, I think this design is solid for a variety of sports with a few modifications here in there. Adidas may have hit a homerun on accident here!
No thanks.

At first glance, I thought
At first glance, I thought the shorts were just very wrinkly. Then I looked closer and remembered the camo-theme from a previous uniformz thread and ran to the bathroom to violently wretch. Bullet dodged. Thank goodness.

If you kept what we have, those would look pretty awesome.

Let's
at least be honest. The current uniforms are template garbage. Our shorts looks to be created using some old mircosoft art program and the jerseys are way to busy. They don't have sleeves and that is good, but they are a big downgrade from the uniforms of the last three or so years. Michigan will have new uniforms next year.
Didn't
think the shorts concept was all that bad, but wearing the jerseys with sleeves is just a big no. We would probably look more like a mens volleyball team more than anything with the jerseys.
2013 will be the year.

Maybe everyone else has a fetish for athletes' sweaty armpit hair, but I actually like the sleeves. It's not a traditional basketball look, but I like it on Golden State, and I don't think I would mind it on Michigan.
The zubaz look on the pants and sleeves is terrible though. Whoever at adidas who keeps pushing it needs some style advice.

I like Golden State's too. The strange thing is they also have a pattern on the shorts, but it's a more sublte pinstripe. Adidas needs a big helping of KISS.
Keep it simple, stupid.
The people that thought those uni's...

Adidas would do well to get a few young employees in their 20s on the design teams for all their stuff. These things would have been cool on an elementary school playground in 1990. I suspect that was the last time the people designing these uniformz were dressing their kids and they still think it's cool. If the design team is younger than that then they just picked the wrong team. Big time.

Don't even
know why it is classified as camo... I'm mean what are we trying to blend in with, a rather colorful group of hipsters?
2013 will be the year.
Ditch the camo...
...and it's a classic look. Maybe we could bring back the two-hand set shot for a game, too. Or jump it up after every made hoop.

Like ace ventura, but if were going to bring anything,back it should be those snazzy belts!

Tiger Stripes
Cincinnati wore them and they didn't look bad. Then again, Cincinnati is the Bearcats and the unis were black and red..
Kill it
Sweet.
There's going to be a really happy local soccer team in Indonesia, when those remainders get boxed up and shipped out with the spare parts for the generators and the diesel fuel. Their new name; the Trenggalek "Michigans."
Minus the sleeves,
The top would be decent. The shorts... yeah, no. No! NO!!!
Seriously, contemplate how
Seriously, contemplate how many people - designers, marketing specialists, pollsters - were involved in creating the best-looking, hotest-selling uniformz for Addidas to make for the NCAA tournament...
... and they come up with these?????
Seriously, I know this is true, but I can't help but wait for a April Fools joke type of release. These are hands down the worst alternate jerseys of any sport, of all time.
And they wanted UM to wear this crap? And other Top 20 teams will be wearing them?
It's just unbelievable.
I am so fucking sad that MSU and OSU aren't Addidas. I would have almost wanted them to win just to see them have to wear those shit-garments one more time.

Great point. My guess is that the head design guy,whoever he is, liked them and everybody else was afraid to say anything That's usually how awful things like this happen.
And the irony is he'll probably now make his underlings life miserable because they didn't try hard enough to stop him. Aint corporate life fun?
