Will MSU get Pro Combats this year?

  • Giant Moose said...

    That's an old link with the 2009 pro combats.

    Oops, that's not right. My bad.

    I don't think anyone has Pro Combats this year. Nike is putting all their resources into getting their NFL gear off the ground.

    This reasoning has never made sense to me. Nike is an enormous company, and NFL uniforms are hardly changing at all. They're just putting out gear with team's logos on it.

    NIke has seperate divisions for NFL and NCAA Football. And NFL uniforms are all revealed and good to go. it's not like they still have to design them

  • It doesn't look like anyone is getting the "pro combat rivalry series" unis that are a huge hit every year, but people are still getting stuff.

    I really believe we will have something for the Boise game for sure and ND, UW/UM too hopefully. I don't buy "Nike is busy with the NFL", they have 2 seperate divisions for NFL and NCAA I believe and you know they have plenty of labor worldwide.

  • Yeah I don't really buy the no time for pro combat with the NFL into the picture...it's Nike.

    the amount of black apparel that has been coming out and I'm grasping at straws :)

    I wish I could invest more hope in that theory. Do you realize how much grey apparel has been out there too the last few years too.

    As far as hoops is concerned, those are the infamous "silver" jerseys. I'm referring to more of a charcoal dark grey color that Nike releases a lot of their gear in.

    No?

    Beal got it. Look at bottom right corner, above schedule. We haven't used that phrase officially in anything other than the PC game.

    I was at Nike a few weeks ago, and talked to MSU alumni who work there (a couple are quite well connected/high up)

    There will be NO MSU Pro Combats this year, period. They said that last years were very popular, etc, but that other schools are in line this year, simple as that. They love MSU but they had other focus going on this year, they said.

    the white is even more white while the colors stay vibrant proving that MSU now has a deal with clorox color safe bleach?

    Your average UofM fan and I have something in common, neither of us went to UofM. Though we do share One major difference, I got Accepted.

    I'm surprised they are doing them at all, the teams are usually announced by now. That whole thing is way too popular for Nike to just drop though. did they say there would be nothing special uniform wise at all for us? That would be a big downer after how jacked the guys were for last years alts.

    I think people continue to confuse Nike Pro Combats with alternate uniform/helmet options. I'm more than content with the latter.

    Oregon had ONE Nike Pro Combat uniform last year, but as well all know they had multiple uniform/helmet options. And I know Oregon isn't your standard comparison, so how about Oklahoma State. They technically didn't have a Nike Pro Combat uniform last year, but they still had several uniform/helmet combinations as well.

    So, it looks like everyone is keeping the new pro-combats for this year hush hush. Apple should look to Nike for learning how to keep new iphone releases secret.

    probably not, but I think we have a black jersey in the works (non pro combat)

    That would be news to me...

    All NFL jerseys had to be redesigned. Adidas doesn't just hand over their R&D, every material must be replaced and new factories had to be established.

    so what you're telling me is:
    1. the Nike NFL jersey is 100% from the ground up new and different from college offerings. nothing can be shared by either the NFL and/or the NCAA
    2. though this deal was in the works for years, Nike has waited until <4 months before the season starts to get to work on this monumental task
