UW to leave Nike; signs with adidas for seventh-richest deal in college sports | The News Tribune

If you're fond of the Nike logo on all things Washington Huskies, well, you might want to look at getting a new wardrobe.

The school announced Tuesday it would be ending its partnership with Nike after 2018 and in 2019, it would start a new 10-year pact with adidas in a deal that's worth roughly $120 million. Switching to adidas gives UW the seventh-richest apparel deal in college athletics with the largest being UCLA which has a massive 15-year, $280 million contract with Under Armour.

UW also becomes the 12th collegiate program to partner with adidas, the school said in a release.
