I disagree with your 95% estimate. At least half of the fan base prefers something more modern

You disagree with his 95% estimate, yet quote a 50+% stat....just curious, where did that come from? ;)

They're clean and consistent. Not blown away but definitely not disappointed either. They have all the pics up on the bleacherreport app if you want a few more angles

Sometimes....hey, he likes the front-facing Hog, I don't particularly care for it. Am I dumb because I think it resembles ASU's logo? I just think nike could have come up with something better. But I like everything else.

The uniforms are ok, not great, but that secondary logo is an absolute joke.  Can we not just go back to the font/style that 95% of our fanbase liked...the 2006 football uniforms.

Baseball uniforms didn't need changed, loved the cream throwbacks they wore this weekend.

Just because they liked it then doesn't mean that we need to go to it now. Recruits love this stuff, and I think it looks pretty sharp.

Part of "re-branding" is standardizing the font. I like the new font and I think it really improves the football uniforms. The casualty is the basketball uniforms, which were nice as they were, but that's how it works. I like all the changes overall.

I like them a lot.  Big fan of everything!

Thank you for taking out the fading of the helmets.
The biggest plus.

Lotta teams use front facing logos. No big deal.

That being said, I don't really care what our uni's look like for the most part. As long as they stop well short of that Maryland train wreck a few years ago. Not if the guy who suggested that or the guy that approved it needed slapped more in that mess.

Love them! No more helmet fade or unnecessary black accents, just cardinal and white with a few modern touches. Looks clean and ready to rock. Like the font too.

I like them. Good mix of classic clean and modern. The forward facing Hog is not bad. It's a secondary logo afterall and in comparison to the early leak of the hat embroidered patch, size does matter on it's execution/effectiveness. Overall, I think they did a good job.

How is any of the reasoning provided here directly related to post count?  I think the secondary logo is dumb. It doesn't look like a wolf. None of it has anything to do with how many times I've posted on hogville.

Seems to be somewhat evenly split among older fans and younger fans. I figured 50% give or take 10% either way was fairer

Sounds good. 95% seemed a tad high. Ha!  ;)

I really like them.  I would have liked to see a black football uniform, but I'm guessing we will see them at some point, even if it's a year or two. 

I would prefer black to anthracite and had heard that they were adding black as a secondary school color, but maybe not.  The B-Ball jersey still looked anthracite to me.

I also think I like it the least for baseball.  Something about baseball and modern don't mix to me (and I like baseball!)

That was cream? It was nearly identical to Vanderbilt with red highlights. They were awful.

Really miss the logo on each sleeve. I hope on the actual uniforms it doesn't say Arkansas on the back of every player.

Duh...surely Nike could have come up with something better. Yes, still a Hog, but still very similar to the Red Wolves logo.

Really, all there fans could say for three years was that it looked like a Hog.

Simple solution.  If you don't like it don't buy anything with the now logo on it.  See how easy that is?

I think the all white uniforms look the best.

Im sure they wont. They do that for prototypes so they don't actually put a certain players name on it

If you go to the branding site, it lists red(cardinal) and white as primary colors, with black, anthracite, and grey as secondary colors.

I agree. Heck, it's probably a rules violation to put player names on a jersey meant for promotional activity and/or new design launch.

Maybe I was trying to spell three, haha. That is their number of fans, isn't it? I said a few days ago that I probably wouldn't buy something with the front facing Hog on it, I haven't seen anything in the store yet to change my mind. I do like the font, sticking with the white helmet, and the clean look. I'm not crazy about the shoulders, but it's better than last year's.

A lot of folks have been getting some severe cases of the redass around here about nothing.

The extremes folks go to are an absolute joke.

Now . . . here's a reaction from the "old fogey, traditionalist" sector . . .

Basically, I'm OK with the new uni's EXCEPT for the white helmet, which I'm sure I remember Bielema saying were out; guess he got over-ruled.  Otherwise, not bad.

I do notice that none of the pictures have the back of the red helmet.  The while helmet shown from the rear does NOT have the "fade", so I hope the red helmets don't as well.

If I were the "king of design", I'd have a few changes - but there is nothing about the new uni's (as far as I can tell) that I can't live with.  I'm resigned to the fact that we will - occasionally - wear black/grey/whatever.  Seems like virtually all college teams have alternates they wear maybe once a year.  I don't like it but I can live with it so long as that's all it is - an occasional alternate.  I guess we'll see soon enough.

I'm not a big fan of the front-facing Hog and probably wouldn't buy apparel with that being the primary logo. But I like the rest of the uni's. I'm happy the gradient look is being replaced. I'm pretty much a traditionalist, but if the "powers that be" feel the need to re-brand, so be it. I'll be at Baum this weekend, regardless.

No anthracite uniforms for football for 2014, they haven't said anything past that.

ACTUALLY Confirmed by Waddell the associate AD that the Arkansas Razorback Football Team will not have a grey/anthracite uniform for the 2014-2015 season.
