Damnit Adidas...

Is it safe to assume that some one/group at the university has to approve these designs? Surely we dont just let them ramrod us with anything they dream up.
That person might be as deaf as me.
Adidas rep: We want to do something with the Right Sleeve.
Deaf MSU guy: The White Sleeve????
Adidas rep: Yeah, that’ll work.

That is hideous, but there is a Sixpack Special on the White Polo with the MState logo.

Only $55. 100% polyester and only 4XL and 3XL left, so might be a little tight on the typical sixpacker, but surely we have some health nuts on here that could squeeze into one.

Reminds me of Under Armour about 10 years ago. A UA rep told me they had some deal with the Brazilian soccer team. UA bought massive amounts of green and yellow fabric in preparation for the massive amount of gear they were about to produce. When it hit the shelves, it flopped. For the next couple years, they started throwing pieces of leftover green and yellow fabric on their camo underwear to make use of it. The hunting line was bedazzled in lime green. They developed a whole visual package from it. It made no sense but people bought it.
I'm not one who usually complains about shirt design, but this one is warranted. A lot of "what were they thinking" on this one.
We can always count on adidas pulling some kind of weird sleeve stripe, shoulder stripe, or weird sleeve of some sort

The folks at Shipley's would like to let you know that they find this an outstanding shirt.
Does someone at the university have to approve this or do they just have to accept the crap Adidas comes up with
Well how about that
I bought an under armor base layer shirt about that time. Didn’t understand why it had a big bright green patch on one shoulder. Now I know, and I’m impressed with that production team who did their best to bail out the stupid sales team.

I think I saw someone post an NC State version on Twitter? If so, I can’t imagine they polled all their schools to get their ok. I assume someone from adidas just tells them that “this is what this year’s design looks like.” And I hope that person gets fired.
Adidas has never given us anything but money and ****** looking unis, shoes, and "sideline attire". Oh wait, then there's Ben Howland that so many of you chimed in on and said we'd have never gotten him without Adidas" Just look at this shirt, The maroon part could be purchased at any rural AL or MS WalMarts. Then they said "what's their other color, white? Ok sew a plain white sleeve on the WalMart's shirt, have the boss's high school aged son come up with a catchy slogan. Triple the WalMart's price and ship it out. Now let's change the logo and do the same for A&M, no sense wasting time with art department just do the same like we always do".
