New Uniforms Revealed

So these Ames helmets can become a regular right

Replace Ames with script Cyclones and you've got a winner which should be in the regular rotation. Keep the stripe. I love lamp- I mean stripe

The daytime picture of the pants look like copper or a slight tint of pink. BUT.... the night time pic the pants looks really good.

Agree with you there. Jack had on a gold (yellow) jersey in the pic. But CMC HATES yellow... and CMC gets what CMC wants evidently.

I think most fans prefer red, you look at the crowd during homes games it's all cardinal... yellow sucks when used too much on uniforms, it is what it is.

Agree. So being 100% authentic isn't the goal. As the leather helmets didn't appear to have a logo or white in color. So we have made some compromises to authenticity for look.

If the goal is to blend Trice look with modern cool- all I'm saying is not a fan of the grey.

My guess this is a one-off jersey that will be auctioned off after the game. So I can understand the importance to use grey in the striping.

They literally can't be 100% authentic. The goal is to create an homage while using constraints and parameters set by both current NCAA uniform rules and coach preferences.

And I think they did that fairly well.

So, no nameplate on back?

Well, it's not awful...

They are amazing!

You can all disagree with this post, but it is the case

While the jersey is the new FUSE tailoring template, the fabric is definitely of a lesser quality - the seams look really bad

I'm not sure re: the pants tailoring, but again, the fabric is cheap

Also, the jersey is entirely screen printed

The stripes, of course, would have to be screened on, but the faux-stitched iron-on numbers would have looked higher-quality & also would have created a bit of pop & differentiation from the stripes - from afar & on television, especially two-digit numbers, will wash out - the front of the jersey will just look like a gray & white puddle...

A two-tone number would have helped too - maybe gold with a white outline or something like that (preferably not white with a black outline, b/c of the Ohio State jerseys... )

What type of fabric are they using?

100% agree - if they're not willing to do gold jerseys, then they should stop with the Trice uniforms

Would also like to see a Walden era throwback, but probably too much gold...

Too much gold and a bad era of cyclone football performance. I grew up going to games with those uniforms on the field.

This is the argument I've never understood. Too much attachment of logo/uniform to performance.

The 2000-01 uniforms were terrible. But since ISU won, people like them.

Conversely, there was nothing aesthetically wrong with the late 80s/early 90s uniforms except the on-field result. That's not the uniform's fault.

That’s fair and so is my opinion.

What games will this be worn? All home games this fall?

The red was way too bright. Couple that with the new yellow/gold, and not a good look. The design was fine, shade of color wrong. IMO.

Charlie, tellin' it like it is!

One game, on Oct 7th. And most likely might not ever be worn again... just like the last time we did this.

This is the gold we should be using. This is the way

This is the way.

Put Trice on the nameplates.

 

[ISUTex]

Maybe ISU can call Notre Dame and borrow their 2017 Shamrock Series helmets.

 

[CaptainClutch]

The trice jersey with our white pants would look so good. I’m hoping they didn’t put the gold in the jersey so they could experiment wearing that jersey more than once.

Pretty, pretty, pretty good.
