Iowa State hoping to unveil new uniforms in 'next month or so'
- Thread starter Stewo
- Start date
My basic wish is the new look is it prominently features the school colors. Alternates w/ black, gray or silver based on the design are going to happen, but I don't want those to dominate the unveiling.
Helmet is probably going to stay basically the same -- I-State logo will prevail. We can cross our fingers that the ugly tornado isn't part of the basic set.
As for how the full uniform redesign will look, I can't guess.

Not my favorite logo but its laughable how much better this is than that upside down poo emoji.
Oh it's light years better than the bugle logo for sure. I just don't want to see either one on a helmet or uniform.
Yeah, if we are going TB look, the current look is no bueno. They do have one look that was good tho- it is one I prefer for us but most will find it boring
End of June, no announcement, no photos, no mockups, no nothing.
Geez, that nut cup is gonna chafe in this hot weather.

You will see probably all cardinal and gold in the main uniforms, both home and away, so don't worry. It's the alternates that might get a little crazy, which is fine IMO.
I also want to see at least a gold helmet be a part of the main uniform combos. CMC had blue, yellow, and white helmets at Toledo, so why not 3 helmet colors here? Get it done!
I think I hate the bugle-nado more because it makes me actually yearn for the I-State logo on the helmet. Not a fan of it but ANYTHING is better than the bugle-nado.
I think the alternate logo could’ve been better but the more I get away from the group think of the internet, the more I don’t really mind it. I think cyclonefanatic just convinced me I should hate it and now I don’t. I still think it wasn’t great on red helmets.
That logo is god awful and please do not be part of the new uni...
I’m cool with whatever as long as it doesnt include that disaster of a logo.
ISU color palette has some decent shades of gold moreso older type gold look which i prefer by far than the McDonalds yellow crap. We are not Bright Red and Yellow we are Cardinal and Gold!l

CMC must have gotten bad info from Nike.
Either that or there is a heated discussion in the AD on whether or not to dump the bugle.
The NCAA is finally stepping in and reviewing/approving uniform designs. It's possible that there is a backlog.
FOOTBALL RULES/COMPETITION COMMITTEE 2018 DIVISION I UNIFORM REVIEW
Overview: In the past few seasons, some uniform designs have become problematic, with the clear visibility of the number and contrasting colors between the teams being the most significant issues. Special uniforms to honor an event, cause, etc. also do not have a formal process for approval. The uniform review process is an effort to create a structure for uniform approvals with membership support and participation. The intent is to approve uniforms as far in advance as possible, which will give game officials guidance before game day.
Process: With an initial focus on Division I, these steps will be required in order to have appropriate reviews of uniforms to ensure compliance:
1. Required submission. All uniform designs (artwork, photos, etc.) shall be shared with the NCAA and the conference football administrator. The NCAA has created an online form and accompanying email address for submission. These submissions are due by June 15 for the 2018 season.
2. Initial review. An NCAA staff member and conference football administrator will review all designs. Those that clearly comply will be approved without further review. The NCAA will communicate by July 15 the result of the initial review. Any designs that are questionable or may require submission of an actual uniform (instead of artwork or a photo) will move to a second level of review.
3. Secondary review. A subcommittee made up of members of the NCAA Football Rules Committee and NCAA Division I Football Competition Committee will meet periodically to review designs. Any designs that require a secondary review will be processed as quickly as possible, generally within two weeks of receipt of a sample.
4. Decision/Communication. Feedback will be provided and approval/denial decisions will be shared from the NCAA on behalf of the subcommittee. The athletic director, conference football administrator and coordinator of officials will be included in the communication.
5. Special uniform designs. It is understood that some uniforms may be designed outside of this established time frame. Schools/manufacturers should submit such designs as quickly as possible and the NCAA subcommittee will review these as quickly as is reasonable. If a review is time sensitive, please note that in the request for review.
6. Confidentiality. All designs shared with the NCAA will be kept confidential and it is understood that some designs will be unveiled by the manufacturer or school at a later date.
Nice find! I love how they even make a TOE reference:
"Colors associated with other public institutions, such as the one on the eastern side of the state, should not be used. Even though gold is one of Iowa State's primary colors, use of black and gold together should be avoided."
I found the site once when trying to find the exact shades of the official "cardinal and gold."
