By the looks of it, UC didn’t make too many drastic changes to the design but appears to have replaced the flat white fill in the C-Paw with silver leaf or something to give it that shiny, chrome effect. Not bad. Can’t wait to see these donning the heads of the Bearcats as they run out in their all-black uniforms tomorrow night.
