There are a couple at the Co-Op web site.

I noticed last week that 's* had a few items with the new logo, including hats and shirts.

*Amazing that you can't even get the proper name past the filter.

I still don't understand how the main effort behind this was to unite the brand with one logo, one word mark and one color scheme, yet every Husky is different and every color scheme is different too.

For the love of God, they are going to make tee shirts in every color combination and variety known to man. That's not where they're consolidating the logos and wordmark.

For the original poster, go to the Co-op.

They had a bunch of stuff with the new logos. Tee shirts, golf shirts, regular shirts, women's shirts, men's shirts, football shirts, hats - they were putting more of it out as well.

You mean I can get the hat AND the shirt?

(Maybe 5 percent of the folks here will remember that reference - but I like to cater my humor to that 5 percent).
Maybe 5% of those who post here these days, but I'm guessing it's more like 50% of those who read.

Wasn't one of the dog-something posters here in the commercial, or am I misremembering?

I'd get the hat, but not digging the red outline on everything. I'll wait for some more selection.

Only slightly. It wasn't a dog-something. It was a cuz-something.

Oh that's a tremendous slip; I must have confused him with doggydaddy because of their epic battles.

Sorry Aussiecuz, wherever you are (am I remembering correctly that he passed?).

I heard July 1st. Guess what today is? Guess who still has 1 TShirt choice?

Come on UConn...I was about to throw money towards you - make it happen.

I think Uconn was just waiting till the last second to print stuff up, in the off chance they might be able to put "B1G" on the conference logo.........

I went to Gampel and co-op on Friday. Got a new gray shirt for me and Scot-e. I like it. Shirts are blue, Gray and a lighter blue. Went into Gampel they had some youth camp going on, I really like the court. My nieces didn't but my nephew that is a senior this year is converted to the "wolf" logo.

The "breathable" shirts were in short supply, they had a football one with new logo I liked, but no "L" so I didn't get one. New lids are pretty decent.

Saw TO walking the street by the field house. Also saw Travis Knight with his daughter on my plane back to ATL today, he was a friend of my best friends back in the day but I didn't bother him. He was all smiles though.

The Practice facility was very active in construction.

Was good to be there.

See?

Atlanta flew all the way up from, I assume, Atlanta, and he was rewarded with the new Husky gear that's being held aside for us megafans who show their dedication by going to campus instead of navigating to some online outpost.

Sadly, he is no longer with us.

But, not a day goes by where I am not reminded of his presence in some way or another.

Right, because one Husky is blue/white, blue/white/grey, blue/white/red, blue/white/blue eyes, etc. you get the picture.

All I'm saying is they switched the beloved all white Husky and said it was because we wanted one united logo, and we still have 4 Huskies and our default logo is a squished head abd a weird mark you can't read.

The reason you sell a varied product line is so that you sell more of said product line.

That's why you can buy a white Ferrari, a pink Yankee hat and yes, more than one version of a UConn tee shirt.

No one is suggesting you should only have one blue tee shirt that says UConn on it and call it a day.

Just after a massive rebranding of UConn, nobody knows still what our primary logo is and what color that logo is.

I liked the old logo better, I don't mind the new one, but I just wish they stuck to one Husky as with the old Jonathan were going to different versions everywhere. That just bothers me as a fan.

My God.

They have one logo.

Not sure why this is so hard for you.

There is currently:

Husky with a red outline and blue eyes with UCONN underneath it.
Husky with a gray outline and blue eyes.
Husky with no outline and blue eyes (hoop court).
Husky with all blue and white eyes (football helmet).

Look, I'm just saying you spend all this money 'rebranding' the school so there's one unified logo across the board and we have 4 different Huskies already, I think they should've just picked the one that you linked and gone with that on everything. I think it's just stupid to scrap the old brand because all the logos were different and then go and do exactly the same thing.
