While you were busy opening presents on Christmas morning, Kentucky Basketball gave the gift of denim uniforms, or, at least, confirmation that the Wildcats will wear denim uniforms later this season. The program’s social media accounts announced a February 7, 2026, return date for the throwbacks, asking, “How about this for a Christmas gift?”

The denim comeback coincides with the 30th anniversary of the original Converse Cons Blue uniforms. Kentucky first wore the unique look on February 11, 1996, in a home game against Arkansas.
