Miami unveiled its new uniforms Monday with a nod to its proud history, a retro look that mimics what the Hurricanes wore during their dominant decades in the 1980s and 1990s.
Dubbed "Legend of the U," the uniforms make their debut on Oct. 8 when the Hurricanes play rival Florida State at Hard Rock Stadium in South Florida.
The collaborative design between Miami and adidas Football paid close attention to the detail the teams wore all those decades ago, when they won four of their five national championships. Jersey numbers, stripes and logos were measured from archival products worn by the Hurricanes for an accurate representation in the new design.
