Wisconsin unveils new Under Armour men's hockey jerseys

The Wisconsin Badgers men’s hockey team unveiled its 2016-17 jerseys on Wednesday and man, are they great.

The new threads are Wisconsin's first hockey redesigns since jumping ship from Adidas to Under Armour. When Under Armour unveiled the football team’s jerseys back in July, Paul Lukas over at Uni Watch panned some of the features, including the "Forward" arrows (seen below in the stripes at the elbows and waist) and the font. I respectfully disagree with Mr. Lukas and his Watch—I think both are welcome changes, particularly here on the sweaters. The font is much cleaner than the shadowboxed lettering in years past (though admittedly not quite as crisp as the traditional font on last year’s offerings from Reebok).
