How to dress for a Utah game

Fall in Salt Lake City, UT turns cold quickly, so plan on layers: start with a tee early in the season and lean on the hoodie once the temperature drops.

• Early-season game: Warm early-season afternoons still call for something light. Wear: Utah Utes Essentials Oversized Tee, Utah Utes Varsity Mesh Shorts, Utah Utes Hat.
• Cold-weather game: Layer up over a long sleeve, add the hat, and you're set for the stands. Wear: Utah Utes Varsity Hoodie, Utah Utes Hat.
• Everyday on campus: The pieces you'll actually reach for all year. Wear: Utah Utes Varsity Hoodie, Utah Utes Essentials Oversized Tee.

Utah tailgate essentials

Tailgates are long, so comfort matters as much as color. Mesh shorts are the easiest piece to live in all day, an oversized tee layers over anything, and a hat handles sun and bad hair days alike. If the game runs late, toss the hoodie in the car.

Why the Utah logo is upside down

The upside-down print is UPSIDE's signature. It flips tradition for fans who want their Utah pride to look different from what everyone else bought at the bookstore, while staying officially licensed. Read more about the meaning behind upside-down apparel, or see the Utah collection launch.
