rmackman Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Nothing beats this... "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you'd better be running." - Unknown | Check out my articles on jerseys at Bacon Sports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCap Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Too much teal. The 1997 version was the best. Enough black to bring it back down to Earth but enough teal to keep the identity intact.

TruColor Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Allright, but if you buy a jersey from various shops : - ... Coming back to this...that "Firebrick" designation is probably something Majestic came up with. Possibly their own name for that color fabric. It's also possible that the Marlins call this color "Firebrick"; it really doesn't matter. Here's what Pantone calls the textile/fabric that Majestic uses for matching: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonFromMiami Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Thanks ColorWerx, i think it´s pretty nice with a color no other team uses, i don´t even think there are other pro or college teams that uses it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I still don't like their uniforms. Reasons: - the logo is gigantic on the hats and looks silly- the logo isn't visually pleasing. It grates on me. I miss the old one. - I don't like how the secondary colors work together. I think they vibrate off of one another. - too much emphasis on black- they should commit to orange- wear the gray road tops 100% more often- I still resent their moving away from teal. Now they're the third black and orange team in the majors. - If they're going to use all of those colors they should go the full spectrum and have jerseys and hats in each color. Their identity could be that they have 7 different colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBubba Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Hell, you might as well go with a different uniform every day of the week. Seven different-coloured caps and jerseys.Better yet, you could start pairing them off. 49 different uniform combos! Have fans fill out cards as they try to guess today's combo. Winner gets to pick tomorrow's outfit! Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WavePunter Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 I hate everything about it. The logo is absolutely ridiculous, they not only added orange, which I hate for the Marlins, but they just threw in yellow for the heck of it.. I shudder to think of a teal, orange, yellow, and MAGENTA future!Their look was classic and probably my favorite in the league (depending upon which year), and what probably annoys me personally the most, is they actually had a logo with the "F" replaced with an "M".. that logo annoyed me at first, because I hate having a letter represent your mascot (especially when the letter actually contains said mascot), but with the switch to "Miami", I instantly saw a perfect opportunity to rectify the poorly chosen logo letter and right the wrong.. but alas, they went wronger.. WAY WRONGER in my opinion.. the Marlins have gone from being one of my top 5 favorite teams to one of my most despised teams, solely due to their rebrand.

AnPheitseog Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 When they released them, I did like the new look. I loved the orange hat especially and the orange jerseyNow?They need to wear grey for at least 8-10 games a year (preferably 41, but better than 0).Also, ditch the orange caps, which is one thing they did right Formerly known as DiePerske Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jungle Jim Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Looks like you're going to get your wish. I, too, am glad to hear they're going to use the gray jerseys more, but I hate to see the "official" end of the orange caps. They don't have to wear orange caps, specifically, but they need to wear something other than black. So many awesome colors to choose from and they're going with the worst color possible.
