This year, the Wildcats will wear the uniform for three home games:
The senior class contributed elements from their favorite elements of retro jerseys. The NU logo on the chest is a throwback to the mid-1990s logo of the Seattle SuperSonics, while the flag striping down the shorts draws inspiration from the 1970s New York Nets threads.
