johnnyzip84 Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 I think it'll be the more traditional Blue (Top) and Gold (Bottom) for the 1st game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 I agree. Traditional and classic blue jersey w/ gold pants. Though I'm sure a couple times this year they'll break out the all blue look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zipsrifle Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 Rumor has it that Akron will be kicking off it's new Nike contract tomorrow. IN the spirit of one upping Ducks, the Akron players will be dressed as giant kangaroos to raise the rediculous uniforms competition to a whole new level!

But when they ran onto the field they had changed into brand new all-blue uniforms. It was a cool way to unveil them and kinda reminded me of that amazing Mighty Ducks movie from the 90's, when they switched from team USA to the ducks....priceless!!!

ZachTheZip Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 The team didn't know that they had new uniforms until right before the game! They were practicing in old unis with the wrong numbers and no names. The lockers were all locked before warmups, but unlocked after they came back in with the brand new unis in them and that's how the team found out about them. Pretty neat, and I think it went over pretty well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 THAT...IS...AWESOME!!!Oh, and they looked great too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fear the brown roo Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 i'm more of an old school uni guy. but damn, the zips did look great in the new all blue uniforms with "akron" in the front of the jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xu9697 Posted September 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 More of an old school guy myself, and not a big fan of the all one color. But I really liked these. The white down the side keeps it looking sleek, and the "Akron" wording is awesome! Great story about how they found out too. Pretty impressive that they kept this a secret and kept it from ZN!!!!

Blue & Gold Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Ok, was there anyone on ZNO that knew, but who was sworn to secrecy? Lol.That is epic how they pulled that one off. Yesterday just had to be an absolutely amazing day to be a player for the Zips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday just had to be an absolutely amazing day to be a player for the Zips.I think when we all watched the PSU game we just assumed no uni changes. I am wondering if this means we will have a different away look now too? Will there be other options?Beacon Photo Albulm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbozeglav Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 The new uni's looked fantastic. I was never a fan of the gold pants and I thought this was the perfect blend of all the school's colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see an all-white version with blue down the side (basically, the reverse of the home unis). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
