According to FSU athletics, the uniforms feature an updated design on the jerseys and pants, both of which feature elements previously worn by great FSU teams.
On the jerseys, the numbers move from the top of the shoulders down to the sleeve, while the tribal pattern moves from the shoulder cap to the sleeve cuffs and remains on the redesigned collar.
The pants will feature FSU’s primary Seminole head logo on both hips.

Growing up in Mascotte, Florida, Roberto Aguayo and his brother would go outside and imagine it was the last second of the Florida State-Miami game with a field goal needed to win it. In a rivalry that is defined by kicks more than any other, Aguayo is hoping to not join the list of FSU kickers who have missed important kicks. (AP Photo/Mike Groll, File)
Slight changes were made from the initial update until settling on the uniform combinations that have been used through the end of the 2022 season.
