Last week, adidas announced that it has extended its partnership with Mississippi State University.

"Our goal at adidas is to help athletes perform better and we look forward to continuing to bring the best in performance footwear, apparel and accessories to Mississippi State and their passionate fans,” said Mark Daniels, Director of Team Sports for adidas America. “We are very proud to announce our partnership extension during Super Bulldog Weekend, one of the greatest college sports experiences in the country.”

In conjunction with the press conference, adidas unveiled new uniforms for the school’s football and baseball teams. The baseball team wore their new unis over the weekend, while the football team will debut theirs in the season-opener against Southern Miss on August 30.

MSU’s new football uniform celebrates the 100th anniversary of Scott Field with “Hail State” across the chest, the Mississippi State patch on the back neck and “Bulldogs” as player names. The design incorporates a vintage look of MSU’s 1990s uniform, including the jersey worn when the Bulldogs won the 1998 Southeastern Conference Western Division championship.

The uniform features adidas TechFit ShockWeb technology, designed to keep the Bulldogs faster, cooler and winning. The adidas TechFit uniform is the only true compression uniform system in the industry; tighter to the body making the Bulldogs more difficult to tackle, lighter to make players faster and an increased range of motion allowing athletes to perform at the highest level.

“Our partnership with Adidas has been outstanding for our program and student-athletes,” said MSU football coach Dan Mullen. “Our players will enjoy wearing this uniform to start our highly anticipated 2014 season. I think it’s appropriate that the uniform is a design similar to the classic look of our 1990s uniform that the fans love.”

The Super Bulldog Weekend baseball uniform is designed to have a vintage look utilizing modern adidas technology. The Code cream uniform features true maroon tackle twill and piping, a Climalite engineered body to keep the Bulldogs cool and dry in any condition and Formotion Raglan Seaming to increase range of motion for players at every position.

"The highly ranked Mississippi State baseball team will debut new Adidas uniforms this weekend and showcase our lightweight adizero cleats and game-changing EQT bats," said Mark Daniels, Director of Team Sports for adidas America. "Super Bulldog Weekend is the perfect example of how we partner with the Bulldogs and their athletic department on product design and creation, helping their student-athletes perform at their very best, celebrating their rich baseball tradition and getting fans and alumni excited about the action on field."
