Tennessee Athletics will continue their uniform releases throughout the week. UT will unveil white uniforms on Tuesday, Summitt Blue women’s uniforms on Wednesday, and Dark Mode uniforms on Thursday. All jerseys and merchandise will then go live in stores and online on July 10.
“We appreciate adidas recognizing the power of the Tennessee brand and we are excited about the future of this transformative partnership. Both current and future Vols will benefit from this historic deal,” Tennessee HC Josh Heupel said in a statement last week. “adidas is providing us with world-class resources and apparel that will continue to push our brand to the forefront of college football for years to come. We can’t wait to showcase our adidas uniforms this fall.”
Tennessee previously partnered with Adidas from 1995-2015 during a stretch that saw Tennessee football win the 1998 National Championship and the Lady Vols’ basketball program win National Championships in 1996, 97, 98, 2007 and 08. Tennessee made the switch to Nike beginning July 1, 2015, and wore the famous swoop while winning the 2024 College World Series.
