​Tennessee continued its rollout of Adidas football uniform combinations on Thursday, this time unveiling the Vols’ dark mode look. The new design marks another step in the Vols’ ongoing collaboration with Adidas, as the school and the athletic brand expanded their partnership with a 10-year agreement that began on July 1. Adidas serves as the official footwear, uniform, apparel, and sideline partner for Tennessee athletics, reinforcing the long-standing relationship between the two programs.
Adidas previously partnered with Tennessee from 1995 through June 30, 2015, before the department shifted to Nike from July 1, 2015, through June 30 of the following year. The renewed collaboration with Adidas signals a renewed emphasis on innovative gear and fresh aesthetics for Tennessee’s teams as they prepare for upcoming seasons.
“Our mission is to build the nation’s premier athletics department and set the standard in college sports,” Tennessee vice chancellor and director of athletics Danny White said. “Partnering with Adidas is a natural fit, as their commitment to being the world’s leading sports brand aligns with our vision. We are excited to unveil our new Adidas partnership and showcase a fresh look to Vol nation in the coming days.”
Accompanying Thursday’s announcement are photos of the Vols’ dark mode Adidas uniforms, highlighting how the program plans to integrate Adidas’ design language with Tennessee’s iconic branding. The release invites fans to anticipate additional reveals in the near future as the partnership unfolds.
