The “Warp Speed” set is effectively the road version of the Ducks’ all-black “Fly Era” uniforms, which combine various elements from their previous uniform designs and debuted in their 32-31 win over Ohio State on Oct. 12. 

That includes the wing pattern with a carbon fiber infill on the shoulders of the white jerseys, the diamond plate pattern that fits into the V-shaped seam of Nike’s Vapor F.U.S.E. template and the iridescent numbers, along other smaller details.

The diamond plate pattern, specifically, was pulled from Oregon’s 2005-08 uniforms, and the decision to debut them in Ann Arbor isn’t a coincidence, either, as the Ducks notably beat the Wolverines, 39-7, in 2007.

While our sources previously indicated the Ducks would wear dark green helmets on Saturday, just like they did in 2007, we’ve been told their equipment staff decided to switch up some combinations based on our reporting.

That’s why Oregon’s new “Warp Speed” uniforms are now complete with silver chrome helmets that feature silver wings and a green “O” on the back, creating a combination that was most recently worn in last season’s 38-30 win at Texas Tech.

Interestingly, this won’t be the first time the Ducks wear the white pants from their “Warp Speed” set this season, as they also appeared in their 37-34 win over Boise State on Sept. 7 and 35-0 win at Purdue on Oct. 18.

The other iiterations of Oregon’s new “Generation O” uniforms include the aforementioned “Fly Era” set, the “Gang Green” and “Mighty Oregon” throwback-inspired designs and their yellow and black “Heroes” uniforms, which are dedicated to those who have battled cancer.
