I personally like Nike but I adidas has came out with some good looking shoes recently. I'm not a big fan of UA shoes but I like the rest of their clothing. Nike definitely the bigger name and most popular among kids I would assume.

Yeah while Nike and UA have had some so-so uniforms (nobody is perfect), Adidas has had some real duds. I like Miami's uniforms and they have done a good job with the Army All-American bowl, but when Adidas is bad, they are BAD. Louisville is one example.

Under Armour has always been a pretty "cool" brand, but they continue to push the envelope and challenge Nike. Considering these are usually pretty long-tenured deals, Under Armour's upward trajectory is something to consider.

Are yeezy's a reference to a rapper or an athlete? I'm super not into celeb news or trends so pretty clueless here and not motivated to google it. But if not athlete related, which I don't like either (jumpman) then I'm just naturally opposed to that concept. Quality products shouldn't need stupid personal endorsements but I'm a damn old fogey now I guess. Probably a good thing I'm not the decision maker:cigar:

Yeezy's (the rapper) are some super limited shoes by Adidas that resell on the secondary market for $600+

Well you're going to be even MORE pissed that WalMart sells RA apparell with...UGA. Seriously, given that we're RA's "major" college partner, and Walmart does not carry any RA GT gear, but does carry our most hated in-state rival's gear.

Guess it depends on the Wallyword in your area. RA gas GT Logo cloths in metro Atlanta.

I think you're right; perhaps we should be focusing on the word "gear" in the photo and the uniforms aren't included...
