Miami is heading back to Nike. A report from the Miami Herald’s Barry Jackson states the Hurricanes are expected to rejoin the Swoosh once their current adidas contract expires, with the new agreement reported to be worth more than $200 million over 10 years.
The move would close out an adidas partnership that began in 2015, when Miami left Nike after nearly 30 years together spanning 1987 through 2015, a stretch that included some of the program’s biggest football seasons. Miami’s current adidas contract runs 12 years through June 30, 2027, and reportedly pays the school around $6.5 million annually in cash on top of apparel. adidas was reportedly given a chance to keep the Hurricanes and submitted a competing offer during negotiations, but the terms did not match what Nike put forward, opening the door for Miami to switch once its contract lapses. Nike is expected to officially take over as Miami’s apparel partner in July 2027. JustFreshKicks will track the rollout as more details surface, and readers can follow every upcoming Nike drop on our sneaker release dates page.
