I have no problem with MLB teams shifting away from gray jerseys, as in many cases they are simply lacking aesthetically. The Mariners don't really need 'em, I love their color scheme and the ID should focus on them.
There are teams that should/would never lose their grays (NYY, Bos, CWS, STL, etc.) because they have a classic or particularly nice set. But there are some really uninspired looks (as a Cleveland fan, it's easily the most boring look we have) and tradition is the only thing keeping them around. That said, people love tradition and I get the negative responses here.
I am likely in the minority, but I feel like a number of teams could make a mono-chrome road look work in different colors. While overdone recently, I enjoy a light blue road look. I think an all-navy set could work for a few teams as well. The Padres do it really well without using actual gray.
I actually love the Guard's gray uni's. It's the only uniform that I'm a fan of in their set. I cant stand the navy road alternate with no piping, and wished they would return to wearing navy at home (preferably with the script "Guardians") with white piping on the sleeves. They should just slap the Guardians wordmarks/logos/fonts on their 2016-2018 set (which they wore with red accessories) and call it a day. I would ditch the red jersey, and maybe add a cream Sunday home alternate.

Was it my imagination, or was there confirmation of the Browns moving to a white facemask next season?
The owner basically confirmed white facemasks permanently at some point. I’m not sure what the timetable would be because the logo would have to change as well.

I’d prefer contrasting socks for both teams, and certainly think that gold pants for SF would be a major improvement. However, I think Seattle’s green alts are tasteful when worn with blue pants.
I’m also a sucker for games with all white (preferably with contrasting socks) against a team that has contrasting jerseys and pants that are both colored. See below
while tonight’s game doesn’t look quite as good as any of these examples, I feel like it fits the same bill.

there is so much wrong with this hawks/niners game. that being said, it weirdly works and I think it’s a great looking game.

Ravens/Jags is going to look so great. Fantastic contrast.

Eagles are wearing white socks with green jerseys and white pants. Looks terrible.

I’ve never seen this site before, but this seems legit-ish.
I doubt this is it, but that looks nice.

I don’t mean to be rude, but I don’t think these work very well. I mistook the C for a lowercase e at first glance, and I’m not sure what effect you were going for with the yellow gradient. I think the mountain sublimation idea has potential, however. The road uniform looks solid, but the gradient is a little off-putting.

Looks great. Looking forward to the rest of this series.

That is absolutely not an unpopular opinion. The only time that you don't see the Bears' uniforms ranked near the top of the league is when the ranking is by some high-school-aged OMG MAKE THE ENTIRE LEAGUE LOOK LIKE OREGON SWAG SWAG FIRE EMOJI kid.
I’m in high school, and can assure you that no one talks like that

I think I would remove black from the scheme, or maybe just relegate it to an outline color for the numbers.

If this leak stands, this has got to be the least cohesive set in NFL history, and that includes the modern day Rams and Cowboys. Those white jerseys are the furthest thing from what a 90 year old franchise should be wearing. I’d be sick if I were a Washington fan,

That combo stinks. There’s no individual piece that looks bad, but that jersey is so gold heavy, whereas there is no gold anywhere else. I loved those pants and helmet, however. They looked really good in white over white, in my opinion.

It just looks too plain with the chest logo
Maybe a front red number on the same level as the LA logo?

In my opinion, this was an overall positive move by KC, albeit unexpected.
- their previous set was a bit messy. It is hard to fit powder and royal blue on to a jersey without it looking muddled or watered down. The new royal alternate looks great to me. I think the royal looks deeper and better without powder piping .
- I was never a fan of their road script. To me, it always seemed like an afterthought, and was only used to match the home script. I never liked the white outline, and thought it looked muddy. Again, I’m a fan of how the royal piping, wordmark, and numbers look on the gray background.
- the thick sleeve piping is unique, and has historical precedence with the Monarch’s style piping from long ago. I love how recent redesigns have trended towards thicker sleeve piping styles (Brewers, Padres, DBacks, etc)
- I wish the powder alternate was worn with powder pants, but I think it looks best with no number or wordmark outlines.
- I’m glad they chose to stop focusing on gold. Gold accents didn’t look bad, it was just hard to fit it in with their already full color scheme. I think they would look fine if they went with a royal, gold, and, white scheme, but I’m glad they stuck with royal, powder, and white.

“I know there's a lot of people that wish for them to get back to the Big Red Machine days, and I do get it--but that's also just too easy and too predictable.”
Easy isn’t a bad thing. There are so many cases (2015 Browns, 2020 Rams, etc) where the “easy” choice for a redesign was neglected in lieu of more “exciting,” or “less predictable” designs. Uniforms shouldn’t surprise fans, they should just look good.

The Twins definitely have never had a truly terrible primary uniform like some other teams.
Ya, I agree. I’d say the Marlins, Rays, Reds, Angels and Rockies all have worse primary home/away looks than Minnesota, and even most of those uniforms aren’t far from looking good. MLB is in a pretty good state right now when it comes to uniforms. Minus City Connect, and a few teams looking a little bland (ie. Cleveland, Tampa, Houston, etc.) there are very few horrible uniforms.

Cleveland will obviously have a new uniform. Not sure if the one they've shown is the final version or just a mockup.
I would love to see them go back to red accents (socks/belt/undershirt/batting gloves) at home. Navy looks so dull, in my opinion.versus

I love this series, but can’t help but notice that you have consistently used contrasting front numbers with almost every team. It works well as a quirky niche every once in a while (ie. Dodgers) but looks tacky with most uniform designs IMO.

This is so unnecessary. However, if it makes the Broncos wear white socks and sleeves with the color rush orange jersey and pants, I do think that’s a slight upgrade from the previous orange monochrome socks/pants/jersey look. It’s kinda like how Clemson’s all orange uniform kinda works because they don’t wear orange socks.
in my opinion, this:
looks a lot better and more balanced than this:
Simply due to contrasting socks
