MEGA New Miami Adidas Ultraboost🔥 - The Shoe and Nike/Adidas Thread.

[OriginalCanesCanesCanes]

Authentic Casio wrist watch AND braided leather belt on the jorts? You don't want to be competing against that dude on a Tuesday night after last call at Grog House.

He got ******* filling up the glaze barrels at Krispy kreme.

It’s the way he tucks in that Costco polo that gets the ladies.

They love to see it, for sure.
Plus it shows off that sweet braided leather belt...

Yes, shout out to our boy @Hurracanes. It’s going to be an interesting summer, but I’m fully focused on Adidas x ASU right now.

I want to see how they’re being handled.

Arizona State bouncing?

Also, nothing like some high waisted denim shorts for that classic look

Just screams "Big Lots" money.

I also want to give credit to our fellow shoe enthusiast @Hurracanes for the tip-off on the timing of the adidas meeting. I knew it would happen, I just thought it would be in the summertime.

I am curious to see if the change does occur, when will it take place? I would imagine Nike (or the next apparel brand) needs time to make the gear. I doubt they have the gear ready by summer time when camp starts unless things are already moving.

That boy got Ross and marshalls money. How you supposed to beat that ****?


You throw that braided belt on and these ***** mouths start frothing.

When we announced the adidas deal, it was in January 2015, and we had enough time to get apparel by August of the same year.

I'd expect that if we can't hit the "2023" window, that we will quietly part ways with adidas now, but not announce Nike until part of the way into the 2023-24 year, so that adidas can sell football merch (which is most of the merch money anyhow).

Here is what I personally expect...given the groundwork that was done a year ago...if we conclude business (negatively) with adidas this month and can get something in place by next month, then you might be able to announce something in time for the spring game.

Which would be nice.

If not...then the calendar rolls over to "2024 by the earliest".

8 or 9 years is a good run on a 12 year deal. Good enough, anyhow.

But I defer to @Rellyrell on how fast Nike can make shoes and print shirts. A lot of that stuff is "template" now, just use different colored-material and ink, and insert the right logo...

That would be awesome for The Spring Game, actually. However, if something like that were to happen, we’ll most likely still rock the 3-stripes for the 23-24 season, with the new apparel company taking over for the 24-25 season. It’s not material that’s an issue, it’s logistics of product placement w/ approved stores, approved designs, fitting team needs for on field & off field products, templates to customize jerseys for the NIL era, enough merchandise for fans whether that’s t’s, hats, different quality jerseys, shoes, etc.

For instance, even though Harbaugh’s contingency with joining UofM was switching to Nike, that first season in 2015 they were rocking Adidas, even though it was announced they’ll be switching that same football season.

Can't possibly be intentional, right?

Right???

I'd imagine that Miami's request for a lot more money fell on deaf ears...
