The Wisconsin Badgers will debut their 2024-25 ‘By the Players’ alternate uniforms on Tuesday vs. Michigan.
For the fifth straight season, UW’s players collaborated with Under Armour to produce a unique uniform that will be featured several times throughout the 2024-25 slate. That tradition began in 2020 with jerseys designed by Brad Davison, Aleem Ford, Micah Potter and D’Mitrik Trice.
This season, veteran guards Wisconsin native Kamari McGee and Max Klesmit spearheaded the design effort. The jerseys feature Madison’s skyline above the players’ last names on their threads, a pair of enlarged Bucky Badgers on the shorts, and a red emblem of the state on the athletes’ waistbands.
The uniforms also include a black and red zig-zag design on each side of the torso. Similar to last season, the jerseys include a white background. The lettering, however, will be a red with a shade of black surrounding the edges.

Outside of looking distinct, the initiative also UW’s players to feel connected to the product. McGee and Klesmit’s involvement as senior Wisconsin natives also makes the jersey’s all the more special for a roster poised to make a postseason run this season.
UW’s game vs. the Wolverines will commence at 8:00 p.m. CT exclusively on Peacock.
