Why is it ridiculous ? Tech cancelled their contract.

No they didn’t. They just extended it until 2026

I see the thread has been hijacked again. This thread is for posting the latest GT adidas gear. Not for arguing colors. Please do that in another thread.

What color is that above the green hat?

 

[TooTall]

What color is that above the green hat?

Sand

I'm sorry I had too.

Fanatics does not make apparel for Tech. They are a retailer/distributor. Tech has cancelled them as the primary and given the contract to Legends. Whether Legends has contracted with them or not, I don't know.

Looks bad tho

Looks awesome. A lot of people think so. It's a major reason why navy gear is the most popular option available.

No it doesnt. Any sane GT fan knows we are the white and gold. just stop
The reason navy has the most items available is mainly because it’s cheaper to produce. It’s so crazy that some fans like you are ok with GT just completely changing our colors. Imagine if Tennessee stopped selling white and orange gear in favor of Navy because it was cheaper? They wouldn’t stand for it.

They actually did stand for it. When Nike rebranded them a few years ago, they standardized all of the uniforms to one consistent version of orange. They also introduced Smokey Gray to the palette as well.

Tech is basically doing the exact same thing. They are standardizing around "Tech Gold" (and ditching "Old Gold" which sucks to manufacture), White, and Navy.

I've learned that "yes dear" works great in that department

Shouting down rational fans doesn't work. Contrary to your opinion, many fans, most of them sane, like blue in the GT color wheel. I realize you've made it a mission to complain about every instance of colors other than Gold and White but you've lost that war. Shoot, that war was lost before most of us (probably all) on this site were born. It has been proven ad nauseum that GT has been wearing Navy Blue jerseys since before you were born. Dodd himself took GT to navy blue in the 40's and 50's. Heisman had GT wearing navy and/or black jerseys in his days. (How much more traditional can that be?) The gold in our brand came from fans wearing yellow jackets to games, not from the uniforms on the field.

Also, since Navy Blue is indeed a PRIMARY color according to Georgia Tech, telling fans not to wear or support it is an odd look.
