Nike & NFL Officially Kick Off Partnership


Tuesday April 3rd in Brooklyn, New York Nike and the National Football League officially kicked off their 5 year partnership during a photo shoot. Most of the team uniforms remained the same, however the Seattle Seahawks have gone over a Oregon Ducks type of makeover. Seattle will have up to 9 color combinations this upcoming season. Reebok was the previous uniform and sideline provider for the NFL. Similar to Nike sponsored NCAA football teams, each NFL team will have their logo on their gloves in the palm area. Everyone will see the logo when players hold their hands in the diamond position. Nike first began to make NFL uniforms in the 1990's however only for select teams, prior to Reebok taking over the entire league. Dallas, Pittsburgh, Oakland, Green Bay, Denver and Miami wore the Swoosh.
