Tonight, when the Gonzaga Bulldogs walk onto Butler's Hinkle Fieldhouse, the players will do so with a brand new swagger—dressed in the most cutting edge Nike basketball uniform to date.

Winning the NCAA title requires a ferocious attitude on the road. Nike's latest uniform, the Hyper Elite Road, grants equal measures of style and performance. The 3D-structured Dri-FIT pulls sweat from the body and added ventilation comes via the construction of the Nike Aerographics. Logos and numbers are applied via heat-transfer, making them as lightweight as possible.

11 other teams will wear the new Hyper Elite Road uniforms this season—North Carolina, Villanova, Southern California, Ohio State, Kentucky, Georgetown, Duke, and the women's teams from Baylor, UCONN, and Stanford.

Each jersey is made of at least 96% recycled polyester, and the shorts are 100% recycled in construction.
