Not the worst thing in the world I guess. Maybe they'll even bust out the 2nd navy alternates. The less I see of their regular white set, the better.

fouhy12 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Why are the Red Sox wearing red again? Only the white and grey jerseys should be seen in the postseason. fouhy12's NFL Concepts 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroCree Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 The Red Sox are surprising me. Of all teams, I thought they would be wearing their whites. Why are they suddenly breaking out their reds? Are they gonna be another one wearing navy when they play away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that logo has been limited as a patch to the gray jersey. The hanging socks logo was on the hat that they wore with the red and the navy alts when they were first unveiled in ... 2008? But everyone hated that hat so much that it got ditched after a year.

Regular hat and then the socks on the sleeve would be nice, same goes for the red jersey, can't believe how bland it is, no navy piping or socks on sleeve.

Digby Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I like the logo but it never looked right on a cap to me. Gotta be the B. If they need an alt cap I’d rather see the 70s red crown come back more frequently. if they absolutely needed to put the socks logo on a cap, the navy outline on a navy background just looks very off to me. Needs a white outline, which the fashion caps seem to have figured out: Fan Style ShirtsShowcasing fan-made sports apparel by artists and designers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Can’t agree there - the red socks don’t need a keyline any more than the Infians’ “C” logo does. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 They both need it. The hanging socks make a good batting practice cap and a good dugout jacket logo. Wouldn't want it on the hats in games that count, though; there should be no alternate caps (and no alternate uniforms for the Red Sox, either). ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m with you except that I don’t mind a hypothetical better red uniform. The Sox logo is perfect for a dugout jacket. Unfortunately all we’ve got now is those faux heather hoodies with a hashtag slogan or the generic raglan pullovers, so it’ll go to waste.

The_Admiral Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 A team as classic as Boston should only be in white at home: if you make it to Fenway, the Red Sox should look like the Red Sox. (Same with the Yankees, Cubs, and Dodgers.) A red batting practice jersey would be fine (maybe with Tuscan numbers instead of the old-timey block numbers) but their base color should be navy in all other instances. That's a change the Lucchino regime made that I was never on board with, the red undershirts, jackets, and seemingly everything else. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a change the Lucchino regime made that I was never on board with, the red undershirts, jackets, and seemingly everything else. But what about the red socks? At least back in the 2000s, that the Red Sox weren't so strict about their "classic" look was something that set them apart from the Yankees. The New York team is stuffy, with their facial hair rules and lack of alternate jerseys, while Boston was more freewheeling. And even then, their alts are pretty mild. And if nothing else, if the Red Sox were still a navy base team, the most famous rivalry in baseball would look a lot more monochromatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just going to guess it was Starting pitcher Price's choice, try something different to change his post season luck. I hate both the alt jerseys, too plain. Maybe if they had the piping like the home whites it would be ok.

Digby Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 I don't mind the red accessories part. I think wearing more red outside of the uniform itself was an upgrade -- greater contrast with the Yankees (which is more important than the Cardinals), looks really nice contrasted with Fenway green, the color is in the name, etc. I could really do without the dual scheme red at home/navy away schtick, but I suspect that'll stick around to sell more crap since they can't get away with all the alternate caps and jerseys other teams can.
