Nevada is trading in Nike’s swoosh for Adidas’ three stripes.
The Wolf Pack’s five-year apparel deal with Nike expires Thursday and the athletic department announced Wednesday at a press conference at Mackay Stadium it has agreed to a new contract with Adidas that will run through the 2024-25 athletic season. Nevada used Adidas from 2005-07 before inking the first of two five-year deals with Nike in 2008, which it re-upped with in 2013.
The Wolf Pack’s contract with Nike called for $400,000 annually in equipment and apparel, plus a $10,000 bonus for being part of the N7 program, which supports Native American communities.
