Kentucky unveils new uniforms for 2016 season (Photos)

The Kentucky football team will have a new look in 2016.

In conjunction with the new “updated graphic identity” announced by the athletic department, UK unveiled three new football uniforms. The new uniforms include a checkered pattern on the shoulders and the school’s new alternate wildcat logo on the pants.

“We gave our team a first look at the new uniforms yesterday and the players were very excited,” football head coach Mark Stoops said. “We can’t wait to wear them this fall. I want to thank Nike for always making us look good.”

The new wildcat logo will debut on the warmup shirts for the UK men’s basketball team for the rest of the 2015-16 season.

The school has also added “black, cool gray and metallic silver” as a part of its secondary color palette to go along with royal blue and white, the school’s classic, primary colors.

Kentucky went 5-7 in 2015 and are entering year four under Stoops.
