I just want to see the "Cat in the HAT" socks make a comeback. That was so unique and different. An eye catcher. Would love to see that come back.

Welcome Jake and kudos on the great design.  This version, with the new green, looks pretty dead-on to me.

If you wanted to take the time to look up old threads about uniform suggestions, you'll find that, by and large, we are a fairly old school bunch.  Generally, we've been pretty critical on change.  However, in my opinion (and several other "purists" eyes) your design nails it.  

The only thing I'd like to see is a white helmet version as well.  Would the sublimated effect get lost on the white, though?  I'm thinking it might give it a grey tone.

I'd also love to see what you had up your sleeve regarding pants.

Again, fantastic design and thanks for coming on and introducing yourself.

The NCAA rule change (following the '96 season) was that all players had to wear the same socks, right?

It's funny, I recall them being green and white... but, clearly those are black and white and I've seen them referenced as black and white in a few places.

I'll do a white helmet and post it here for you.

I prefer the classic stuff too. This one was meant to be a showcase one time use/pro combat type of uniform. It isn't my personal favorite mostly due to liking simple designs more, but is possibly my most popular one.

I usually upload my stuff to twitter here if anybody is interested in this kind of thing. http://twitter.com/jakenevill

Jake...these were awesome.  I am a huge uniform guy and this is by far the best anyone has done.  You accomplished something that I did not think could happen.  You have unified both the fans that want an updated uniform and also the traditionalist.

That tells me this is the uniform that MU should be wearing this year.  Now if you could only get us our old Marco mascot back on the sidelines.

That would be okay with me. Have the entire team wear them! It different, unique and eye catching. Bring them back! At least for the home games.

Jake, I am REALLY OLD SCHOOL. Your interpretation is MOST excellent.

I really like both the green version (if Kelly) and the white.

I hope the Team can get these for this year.

Perfect 10 in my vision.
