IndyPadsfan83 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Will the Pads use the yellow D hat with the road unis also? Is there any changes on the road or home alt? Thanks for the comments btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 The Arizona Republic is reporting that the old batting practice snake head logo is making a comeback with modernized colors.I always find the term "modernized colors" odd. To me, colors are timeless. It's how they are implemented on an overall design that can look dated.That said, I always liked that old batting practice logo and I'm glad it's going to be coming back. Seems the recent MLB trend has been to bring back older looks (Orioles, Blue Jays, Astros, etc.) I'm fine with the D'Backs on that bandwagon.

jp1409 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Logos are something from the current, the past, or modified of the current.What about the "A" logo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 The A logo isn't great, but it's worth saving since they've had it their entire existence (even though they don't use it on the primary caps currently). The current font, colors, wordmarks, D logo and db snakes all suck and should be jettisoned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it will suck then...Based on past history, that's a unfortunately a good assumption. The standard white and gray versions of MLB uniforms today (no, not the softball / BP tops) look the best they have since the 1969-71 era. I hope the Diamondbacks don't do something stupid and start a trend toward general ugliness in MLB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks nothing like anything associated with the team. That being said, if it were a dark chocolate and gold (as it looks), I'd be happy to see it.

In my opinion, the Friday black jersey and cap are the only things worth keeping. I hope they stress the A logo more and drop the D snake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a college for Uniformology at Oxford that we don't know about? How can I become a uniform expert?Why! It makes a lot more sense to have more fan input then it would be to have player input. They aren't recruits.The fans are the ones that are going to be buying the new stuff. I'm worried it's just going to be something that is trendy and falls in line with something similar to that of a college football uniform cycle.

If that's the case, I half expect the jerseys to feature a straight across single layered wordmark helvetica.

With the intriguing fauxback talk, even though it's a pittance now, I think they're stepping in the right direction. It's just very strange that with their past use or brown, orange, and yellow, yellow is the color they chose to bring back. I guess it fits better with the navy they seem to want to stick with.

mjd77 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 These hints are killing me!I don't see any of this being anything special. It seems like both teams can't decide if they want to commit to a full rebrand or not so what we will end up with are half assed "updates" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
