Tennessee Lady Vols Switch to Adidas, Unveil Bold New Uniforms

The team’s 12‑year Nike era ends as orange and Summitt blue take center stage

The University of Tennessee’s women’s basketball program has just rolled out a striking new uniform set that swaps the familiar Nike swoosh for the iconic three‑stripe branding of Adidas.

The kit is dominated by a vivid orange palette, highlighted with Summitt blue accents, and it does away with the side‑panel checkerboard that had become a visual hallmark of the Lady Vols’ previous apparel.

The redesign marks the end of a twelve‑year partnership with Nike, a relationship that began when the team first signed with the Swoosh in 2013, and signals the program’s return to Adidas as its official apparel provider.

A Bold New Identity

Coach Kim Caldwell, who took the helm last season, described the uniform as a blend of tradition and fresh energy, while senior guard Avery Mills praised the modern aesthetic as a morale boost for the roster.

Fans across the Volunteer State have responded enthusiastically, noting that the bold colors signal a new chapter for a program that has long chased national championships.
