EUGENE, Ore. (KMTR) -- Oregon Ducks Football rolled out photos of their new uniforms on their Win the Day Facebook page today. Here are the details according to the page:
  • The armored wing design rests on a new high-tenacity material engineered for maximum lock-down strength. 
  • Chain Maille Mesh is used in strategic cooling zones throughout the uniform for unprecedented thermo-regulation and lighter weight without sacrificing strength.
  • Flywire technology in the collar eliminates layers, reducing weight and providing a lockdown fit in a uniform tailored to minimize grab points.
  • The Nike Pro Combat System of Dress reduces weight in every detail, even down to the aircraft-grade aluminum D-ring belt.
  • Nike Deflex padding built directly into the pant adds lightweight impact protection at the hip and complements the base layer garment in Nike's lightest and most flexible uniform to date.  
KMTR reporter Chris McKee went to the Duck Store and took these photos of the new fan replica jerseys, now on sale for $90.

Do they come with a secret compartment that has game tickets in case they are caught smoking dope, stealing laptops, speeding etc.

The new “wings” (feather design) on these uniforms look like the pattern on that metal flooring they used to use in plywood mills. Can you say U G L Y ? Sorry, Ducks, but this “improvement” fell flat, in my opinion. Won’t be buying THIS years new design! Hope they bring back the other design, and soon! I don’t mind the new materials, and, if the colors are a form of yellow and green, that is OK, too. But those feathers? YUK!!!
