There’s certainly a lot to like here. Some of the adjustments are certainly more subtle than anything. The crossing ‘X’ of the swords on the shorts is a neat touch. As is the navy blue trimming up on the ‘collar’ area of the jersey. The jerseys now have a new ‘lightweight’ material on them and, like many of the new Nike jerseys, they’re of the ‘Rio’/track-style cut.
What’cha think, Xavier fans? Yay or nay?
