I've always like the home more than the away. 
 
I think the away jerseys look like WV's....but I'm cool with it.
 
Go Blue!!
Don't mail it in, don't pack it in, give it everything you've got. Grind it out, I don't care what kind of game you have, somehow try and find a way to get it done ... That's part of my attitude and belief, that you

There not the same by any means. The only white unis Michigan has had that I ever liked were the ones that had a block M on the sleeves. I always prefered the home uniforms.

It's actually even less like WVU's new jerseys (introduced last year)



All of the "OMFG!!!UMLOOKSLIKEWVU!!!" comments on the web crack me up, because had our coach not come from a school where we had similar colors, no one would say a word. Hell, no one said anything when we wore the EXACT SAME STYLE as Illinois, Clemson,  etc. for the last 3 seasons.

i'm tired of hearing people say that RR is the one that changed the uni's.  can someone get me a link to an article that says otherwise?  I mean, i swear I read somewhere that the jerseys passed through his office for "approval," but he in no way had anything to do with the concept.  Am I correct in thinking that?

Well said big d!!!  I too am sick of hearing everyone bitch about how similar our unis are to WVU's!  I guess if Michigan would have hired Jeff Tedford, we'd be hearing whining about how our unis look like Cal's?!
 
The only difference I see from the Nike jerseys of the past 2-3 years is the side stripe.  I hardly think that is cause to start drawing comparisons to those hideous WVU unis.  I mean, did you look at that god awful font for their numbers???

I believe you are correct.  The designs were made long before Rodriguez became coach.  He did get a final say on them, however.  But I highly doubt that he made any changes or said that the away jerseys need to look more like WVU's as all the naysayers seem to be implying. 
 
 
At the same time, I don't think we can give credit to Coach Rodriguez for the embroidering on the inside of the shoulder pads either.  Unless we're giving him credit for staming his final approval on the design when it passed through his office...

They have audio from Doug Karsch interviewing the head designer of the new Adidas uni's. 

Look for...
Doug talks to the head designer of the Michigan football uniforms.

These are pics I saw and was trying to describe a few weeks back.

Sorry I couldn't post them early.

I know the person who puts together the M-Den catalog.

I actually like the screen-printed better.  The older Nike jerseys before the most recent style were all screened.

Well, maybe this will ease some people's fears about switching to adidas since the unis have been pretty well received by most people. I especially like the little touches of tradition inside the jerseys.

So I know I'm coming into the conversation late, but I really feel as if some people(no one here specifically just other comments I’ve read) are being slightly nitpicky/  I love jerseys, and quite a I’ve always enjoyed how teams change logos, colors, etc…; to me it’s one of the cool things about sports.  Now this doesn’t make me an expert by any means, but it looks like more of a tweak than a "change." Other than the weird yellow stripe on the away jerseys they look exactly the same to me.

I actually think the ones in that mden link look like crap. They look exactly like what they are - replicas. They look like novelty jerseys you get at Wal-Mart. I'm very glad they aren't the actual gameday unis.

Arkansas has the exact same ones... so much for focusing on Michigan is our top priority. They are nice but I prefer ours



FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- The new look for the 2008 University of Arkansas Razorback football team was unveiled at the 2008 on-campus football media day.
The official supplier for the Razorback football team, adidas, created a unique new uniform that combined several traditional parts of the Razorbacks with a couple of new twists.
The most notable was a pair of up-swept stripes that evoked the look of a pair of Razorback tusks on the sides of the torso.
The state name remained above the numbers and the player names were on the reverse. Jersey numbers were larger, and more legible with the edition of an outline to define the white numerals on the traditional Cardinal background.
