You would think they could have gotten him some pants that fit.

I like this one the best, too. It's totally trend chasing and reminds me of Marty McFly's Nike Air Mags, but that's not a terrible thing.

This shirsey implements the turquoise combo better than most of the jerseys do.

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.

If anyone on the Dbacks goes for high-cuffed pants, I demand snakeskin gradient stirrups.

This might be how the jerseys look on the field. Since we've only really seen them so far against a black background and the lighting is likely different from actual games.

The Diamondbacks are trying to do all this progressive uniform stuff, but aren't they also still the organization with Tony La Russa and the Baseball Police and all that crap? What are they gonna do, throw pitches at themselves for Disrespecting The Game with their dot-matrix-gradient pants?

♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫

Yes... and then La Russa will get pissed and throw at the hot dog vendor for disrespecting the game for handing someone ketchup with their hot dog. :wacko:

And then he'll have a completely uneventful drive home.

First off, before I make a small compliment toward this set, I want to open with some sarcasm: the new primary home and away snakeskin matrix combines the subtle artistry of the Jacksonville Jaguars helmet with the classy dignity of the Cleveland Browns pants.

Now that that's out of the way, I have my one positive: everyone's favorite turquoise (not teal) set makes perfect sense for an Arizona team. The beautiful artwork of many of the Native American tribes in AZ, including the Navajo and Zuni amongst others, contains a combination of silver, turquoise, red and black. These colors form a basic and recognizable look for that region, and really help salvage what little can be salvaged here. Even though I would prefer a return to the purple, teal, copper and black from yesteryear, the addition of turquoise is a good thing. I never liked the Sedona red set, especially while the Astros basically wore the same thing for years and wore it first. Eliminate the Jackson Pollock paint splashes from the new set and they're on to something.

I like newness and innovation--heck, I visit these forums every day to see just that--but to me I want all MLB sets to kind of look nice together as a cohesive whole. New colors are great, even new design elements, but this is too much all at once, and too randomly.

Man Arizona, you are my NL team and all you had to do was make some minor changes to the old look and it would be good, but I don't know if I can support this.

The pattern on the set is bad, the grey is too dark, too many options and adding a colour to the alternates which isn't anywhere else in the scheme.

I appreciate the bold move they made by choosing futuristic designs. But in order to help cool down all the negative comments like "That's not what a baseball jersey should look like!", they should have kept the crazy pattern ones limited to 1 or 2 the most and gone traditional with everything else.

Because right now, there's no telling if these are going to catch on. Radical changes like this are usually not welcomed with an open-armed embrace. And like someone else pointed, this can very well be just a cash grab. Which means, they might not care if it catches on or not because the whole plan was to change them in a few years anyway. It sucks for teams with solid identities when their look is messed around with for those reasons.
