Blue & Gold Posted November 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 (edited) Sharp. Pretty sweet. Roo Head on shorts. Pretty cool. No "Z." That surprises me. I love the "Z." No gold. Kinda disappoints me. University seal on left leg? Script "Akron" is sharp. Edited November 17, 2016 by Blue & Gold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morris buttermaker Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 I don't like that they are not blue and gold... again. I do like that they say Akron... and not "Z" The lack of any consistency in brand building by the athletic dept is confusing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akzipper Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 (edited) I feel like the football team's uniforms get better every season, and the basketball team's get worse. Our school colors are blue and gold. Not blue, silver and black. Why does the kangaroo head just randomly get cut off below the eyes? The University seal is ugly.

UAZippers Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 I really like these uniforms, especially the home version. The white with just blue trim looks really sharp. I also like the small Z on the waistband. It is a nice like call to it, while not being overbearing and making all the "traditionalists" angry. The seal on the shorts is a strange choice though.

ewbrooman1 Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 (edited) Why the continued disregard for gold? They look pretty dull to me in the picture. Very disappointing. Edited November 17, 2016 by ewbrooman1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpsjugglerdude Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 I like the script Akron a lot. I hate the roo head and seal on the shorts. Looks very tacky to me. We continue to get in our own way of building our brand. Ever since someone decided to do away with Fear the Roo because they weren't involved in coming up with it, our brand has swirled around in an endless pool of branding failures, spitting out new, unrelated ideas on a yearly basis.

zippy5 Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 I think they're awesome. Regardless, as long as the players and recruits like them, who cares what we think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue & Gold Posted November 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Btw, I like the "UniverCity" tagline. Cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72 Roo Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 I don't especially like the new uni's. First, we are blue and gold not white and grayish-blue. Second the university seal on the shorts cannot be recognized because it is too small. It looks like a blotch on the side. I would rather have had our Z in it's place. Can we please get back to a gold uni. I do like the Zippy head on the other side of the shorts. That's cool. It's unique. It's us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doccomet87 Posted November 24, 2016 Report Share Posted November 24, 2016 Script Akron is excellent. What I don't like is the white on white numbers with a very thin blue outline. Can be hard to see especially on crappy video feeds... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue & Gold Posted October 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 (edited) New uni's for 2018-19 Beautiful. Me like. Blue & GOLD in the color scheme. Beautiful script Akron on chest & right leg. Zippy Fear the Roo head at drawstring. Z (literally one of the coolest logos in all of sports) on left leg.

Let'sGoZips94 Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 (edited) I can't wait for the season to start. Unis are sharp, boys look to be in serious shape yet again - let's go Zips! P.S. And our secret weapon is back - Lucas Smith. Edited October 9, 2018 by Let'sGoZips94 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJGood Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 I like the uniforms overall, just never been a big fan of the script Akron. I'd rather that be bold print to represent the U. Also, not a fan of the white numbers on white jersey trend that seems to be taking place in the sports world but I am sure something else will be trendy before long. Still, having the school colors in the uni is a huge plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illini Zip Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 I like the new uniforms. Very solid. My suggestion would be to create an additional alternate uniform that is all gold with navy letters and numbers (white accent). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monrowe Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 The script letters, look high school,and are playing out,bold letters are better.the color scheme is finally right, a nice golden alternative uniform might be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
