Louisville unveils new uniforms that look like Houston Astros throwbacks
The Louisville Cardinals were one of a few college baseball teams to debut new Adidas uniforms over the weekend, and they caught the attention of a lot of people. As you can see from the concept photo above that Uni Watch passed along, the new threads were supposed to include fantastic red pants.
The Cardinals should have looked like a combination between the 1980 Houston Astros and Rickie Fowler. Unfortunately, they didn’t actually wear the red pants during a game.

Don’t get me wrong, the rainbow jerseys were still awful. But we all know it was the red pants that separated the new uniforms from everyone else in the nation. The fact that the Cardinals wore standard white pants was a major disappointment.
