I'm in the same boat. Problem is, most of my Nike gear was all M/L from 15 years ago and I'm closer to an XL/2XL now lol.I like Adidas too, but this is about money and I understand the why. I’m loyal to The University of Miami, our corporate partners only matter if they help us be a world class University. Time to stock up on Adidas merch, while also adding some Nike stuff(I’ve always preferred Nikes cold weather gear). There’s also some Nike gear in my basement that is about to return back to the main closet!
I love Adidas on the shoe front. The Ultraboosts are my go-to shoe...****, I'm wearing some as I type this. Honestly, that probably won't change for me on a day to day basis unless I find something Nike that works better for me. I'm even open to some OnClouds, Brooks, Asics, Hokas, etc for daily wear. Adidas has me covered on that front for now.
That being said - if the Canes are wearing Nike, I'll have Nike Canes gear on next year. My loyalty is with the Canes, not with a specific brand. I'm glad the deal is so lucrative and puts us near the top of the college apparel world in terms of value. Like others...I just want Nike to not put us in clams and palm fronds...let's keep it classic just as Adidas has for most of their deal (yes, I recall the feathers and swirly fonts...those sucked).
I think I'd like to look at some NFL unis for ideas now on where Nike might take us in terms of design/looks. Get some ideas from there...
