Do you like Mizzou apparel options?

I've always been a little unsatisfied with the available Mizzou apparel.
Visited a B10 school a week in a half ago, went to their stores and couldn't help but think they have it much better.
What is our logo?
Is it the M, the M with a Tiger in front of it, or just the Tiger?
Are we gold, yellow, or mustard?
I like simplicity, and I'm finding it hard to find Mizzou gear that fits my tastes and I get aggravated by the strange lack of continuity across the board.
Am I just being a crabass? Or have others ever felt this way?

I'd like a better selection of shirts. I don't have a Mizzou t shirt. Haven't found one that appeals to my middle aged yearning for hipness vibe I'm going for.

This middle aged man has his hoodies. None with the new logo though. Couple of collared shirts. No tshirts that I can think of.

I personally like having multiple logos to choose from. I would like to see more gold instead of yellow though.

I think if Mizzou owns anything, it's obviously the tiger head logo. Big 10 shite is almost all letter based logos, which kind of sucks. However, there really isn't any confusing the Wisconsin W, the Ohio State O, Michigan State S, Purdue P, or even the Northwestern N with any other school. They own all of their shitty letter logos.
That being said, Iowa and Penn State are the best logos in the Big 10.
Also, I dislike black shirts because they show every crumb, piece of earwax, dandruff, whatever falls off of our out of my head, and the gold is just dumb to try to wear as a thirty something year old dude in a polo.
I was really hoping the uniform/brand redesign would give Mizzou a special third color like the "Action Green" for the Seahawks, so I'd finally have some option other than looking like shite in a black shirt or a douchebag in a gold one.
I guess Anthracite works, but I wanted something better.

I didn't like the over-emphasis on rebranding the tiger logo and Mizzou. It seems like years that I was looking for a classy shirt that said University of Missouri.

Finish Line had some medium weight hoodies last year with a large new Tiger head on the chest and SEC circle logo on the arm that I liked well enough to buy in black and gold. Otherwise, I agree. Lots of product out there, but not much that's appealing and definitely all over the map color wise.

We could do much better in this area. I think most of our athletic gear looks lazily and hastily put together.

Same here. However, my black block M hat is pretty faded, so I guess I understand.

I go to the lake once or twice a year and stop at the university store when I'm driving through. Last year I picked up a bunch of good stuff. Didn't care for most of what they had this year. Too flashy - not really adult type stuff.

I think this is why Mizzou got away from the block M. They're trying to brand Mizzou as it's own school, not one that gets confused with Michigan. I agree with them in that regard. The new Mizzou helmets are awesome, the chrome one is especially cool.

I get that, and I like the tiger head. I was just saying they could have also added a new M in a purely Mizzou font. Something other than that "edgy" abortion of a mid major looking font that they put on the baseball team's hats.
