(probably)notabandwagonfan Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Alright, I'm going to give this another go, I know the last thread got sent graveyard, but I think it was a good thread until a member began posting propaganda about pullovers.I miss (the look, I'm far too young to have actually seen them) zipper fronts, I think a couple of teams (Cardinals especially) could use one as a alternate. I also like the look of striped socks.Note: Certain member, please refrain from turning this thread into your pullover campaign, if you post one, please give reasons outside of the ultimate baseball look crap, and this isn't for your propaganda.

mattb6 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 PULLOVERS ARE THE BEST! CREAM AND BLUE AND GOLD IS THE BEST LOOK! UPSIDE DOWN TRIDENTS ARE KEWL!Kidding, but I really miss contrasting panel hats and I love that the O's brought them back. I also miss when teams only had 2 sets, not 5 (I'm looking at you, Atlanta) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a Braves fan and I feel like our primaries are in the top five, but our alts have diluted our brand so much. I don't hate the cream, but the navy and the Stars and Stripes are awful. And I loved when the road was paired with the navy and red cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigers6884 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 I miss the teal and purple that came with the old Arizona Diamondbacks color scheme. The copper color was also a nice accent on a nice looking set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawk36 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 For me it has to be the pants. I can't stand the long, sweat pants looks. Just doesn't seem baseball to me. Thankfully there are a handful of pros who still are holding the torch for proper pant length. Design Hovie Studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash61 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Friendly, cartoon logos.I'm glad they're starting to make a return, with Happy Bird, Mr. Redlegs, and Mr. Met getting some face time.

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

IceCap Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 I miss being excited to see an alternate jersey. It used to be a treat to see the Blue Jays in their blue jerseys or the White Sox in their black jerseys. Now these things are worn so regularly I'm excited to see teams in standard white or grey.

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 I liked some of the vest looks of the early to mid 2000's. Some teams looked terrible with them (Rangers, White Sox come to mind for me) but I don't think they should have been ditched entirely across the league.

kestrel79 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 I miss striped socks. I was never a fan of stirrups. But really like what the Cardinals have going with their striped socks and wish every team had something like that available. Or do they and most players don't wear them?

SFGiants58 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 The arched NOB's were always nice, especially when they weren't on nameplates (which would be easy now with computerized embroidery):Also note the lovely striped socks (which would look just as good if the pattern were on solid socks, not stirrups).

johnnysama Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 I liked how tight baseball uniforms were in the 1970s/80s- but there was still room for freedom of movement in those things then. It looks a lot more better than the bagginess that is prevalent today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 I miss being excited to see an alternate jersey. It used to be a treat to see the Blue Jays in their blue jerseys or the White Sox in their black jerseys. Now these things are worn so regularly I'm excited to see teams in standard white or grey.This is one of the biggest things for me. I loved alternates when they actually were alternates, worn every once in a while. When I was a kid, I thought it was cool when the Sox wore the black jerseys at home. Eventually, they started wearing them for half of home games and about 90% of road games. They weren't so cool then.I will also second the vertical arch lettering. You can get rid of all the awful alternate jerseys and caps, but the Braves just aren't the Braves without the vertical arch. It's amazing how such a small detail could make a huge difference. Not all teams should switch to that style, but the Braves definitely should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
