Do you think the conference pushed for teams to get new uniforms as part of the “new big 12”?
I don’t see many teams outside of the Big 12 getting new uniforms and there have been 6 this year plus OSU and Cincy last year off the top of my head. Seems intentional.

JFC, are Nike and Adidas sourcing their uniforms from the same sweat shop? Outside of Tech getting a pant stripe these look identical to ours.
Minnesota did as well. They look like all the other new ones.
There goes my theory that all the new Nike unis look the same because Nike is using cheaper factory. I was expecting adidas to do better.
I get that retro is in right now but it's already old. Pun intended.
Traditional/retro/vintage is in. It's not laziness. It's just the trend currently. If some team came out with some cartoonish new jerseys, they would get roasted and rightfully so.
Unfortunately for ISU, I felt like we got the short end of the stick on the font size of the "Iowa State" and most importantly, the numbers.

our fans can't even clap to a simple beat in unison. Do we really think they can coordinate on colors?
The fanbase has actually done a pretty commendable job with the color themed games at Hilton. White Out games, in particular, have looked great.our fans can't even clap to a simple beat in unison. Do we really think they can coordinate on colors?
"Average' color sampling of the cardinal jersey here, is RGB 213, 4, 13, which is pretty bright. [It's even brighter than our "university' cardinal, which is RGB 200, 16, 46, and we don't use that on our uniforms.]
Have they accepted a brighter cardinal (mistake) from Nike? Or is this just a 'lighting' issue again?
Contrast the above image with the cardinal (which we have had) in the 2018 release.
Will be just another shade that are players and fans wear. Add it to the several others that already exist.
I'm hoping it's a lighting issue. However, that is easily fixed if you want to edit a photo. Or the folks that release these pics don't notice them. I find that hard to believe though.
If the cardinal in our new unis winds up being brighter than before, by mistake, or if intentional, I will have questions as to "why", either way. If 'a mistake', this should not happen. It would not happen to almost any other school. We let it happen, or we keep changing shades.
I find it hard to believe that JP has intentionally changed our cardinal shade, when he has repeatedly said he was not going to do so.
With these 4 pics of our players, there is a slight lighting difference. I selected my average sample (Beau Fryler's Rt shoulder) from the darkest one, Fryler's. Even so, it is way brighter than what we've had recently.
There is no apparent change in our official colors. See our trademark colors again, here, revised 2022.
