Neon hot! Adidas releases new Miami Hurricanes ‘Miami Nights’ uniform

The topic of Miami Hurricanes football has been neon-hot since Mario Cristobal took over in December. Now there’s a neon-tinged uniform to add to the excitement.

Adidas on Friday released news of its new all-black alternative uniform for the Canes. “Neon Lights. Miami Nights,’’ UM football tweeted with a 45-second video on the newest “Miami Nights’’ unis.

The video shows all black with neon-orange trimmed jerseys and neon-lime jersey numbers.

The black helmets have one thin neon-orange strip and one thin neon-green strip with what appears to be a thick, lighter shade of blue strip in between. The word Miami is written in script on the front of the helmet.

According to the UM post, the jerseys go “on sale 08.15.22.” That’s Monday.

UM did not initially reveal what game the uniforms will be worn.

All in all, a pretty cool look for those who like alternative uniforms.

On Thursday, the Hurricanes teased to the announcement with a social media post that said “Dark Mode. Tomorrow.” There was a button graphic saying “Dark Mode Off” over a graphic showing the orange-and-green U with the Miami skyline behind water. It switched to “Dark Mode On” with the U lit up in neon and Miami’s skyline at night.
