"Just to be clear, the Padres' new home whites are for the 2016 season only. The road uniforms are expected to change after next year, too."

Looks like they will be bringing back the brown full time!

Or modifying the A in the San Diego script of the road uniform and calling it a revolutionnary rebrand... I feel sorry for their fans seeing the way this franchise is handled (and I'm a Detroit Lions fan).

As someone who would prefer the Pads to go to the brown and yellow, I have to say that Navy blue and yellow is really sharp and I'd have no problem with them switching to that. It's simple, clean and that's how you design a classy uniform.

In a day when it seems like every team is either blue or red, I REALLY tried to get on the brown train. I just can't do it. I'm not a fan of the brown/yellow. My favorite Padres look was the blue pinstripes with orange.

Look, if you try to force it, you're going to sabotage every relationship you have.

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

Has any other team EVER worn a special jersey for an entire season just because they hosted the all star game? What kind of Harry high school crap is that?

It also implies that the usual time frame for making changes will be reduced for them, unless 2017 changes are already completed and they're just sitting on it for a while.

Also, why is the D broken?

So, if my math is correct, according to the mothership, since 2010, the Padres have had: 4 primary logos, 8 alternate logos, 6 versions of the cap logo, and 12 different jerseys. And this is ignoring BP logos and uniforms.

This franchise is the biggest branding mess I've ever seen. That being said, I actually like how the "commemorative" jersey looks. Blue/Yellow was really missing in the league, though I'd probably prefer the Brewers in it.

I've got a dribbble, check it out if you like my stuff; alternatively, if you hate my stuff, send it to your enemies to punish their insolence!

Not surprising. The blue and orange from the 90,s was the best looking and most cohesive uniform the Padres have ever worn. The Browns were always too garish or just plain ugly, and the blue and sand/nothing was too bland.

The Padres are becoming baseball's equivalent of the WWE writing team. Tease the fans with something they like but don't commit to it entirely then turn around and do the opposite.

ATTENTION PADRES BRASS: In 2017, make a white version of the brown alternate, recolor the current road to match, change the navy to brown on the new home cap, slap the swinging friar on the sleeves and use him in an actual primary. Is that so hard to ask?

And you could even do a yellow alternate with a brown "SD" monogram.
