The Mets have orange-on-white numbers on the front, and the patterned stuff on the back in white. Lordy, that's dumb. Exactly. This is why I say the spring name and numbers all look like they're unfinished. Like if someone colored in the front numbers but didn't get a chance to do it for the back on time.

mattr1198 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Looks like here's the official new Opening Day logo for this season. The jagged lines still look rather off to me... NYC x STL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But man does it look terrible... Honestly, it looks like a "Back To The Future MLB Opening Day" logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSU151 Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Did the Angels slightly darken their red?

Not sure why they'd have two product numbers for the same hat. not sure why one hat would be "New"; and both the older hat and the newer hat have the NE flag; Lids has both "New" and 2017 hats for high crown and low crown. If it was a photo problem, they'd just update the photo (as I give Lids the benefit of the doubt here). Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

No other team has random duplicate hats up. They might jack up small details on their exclusives, but this looks like a legit change to me. Could be wrong. EDIT: Just saw on NewEraCapTalk that the change is the NE flag going from white to silver. No change in hat color. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

I've had discussions with you about mixing royal and metallic gold (not with the brewers, but maybe it was the Rams?) and you were against it because of the "drabiness" of the gold (I think that's the word you used, but either way something to that effect. I get that baseball and football are different, but I think it would look "drabbier" in baseball because the gold would be so minimal that it wouldn't stand out the same way that athletic gold would, while in football, it'd appear in much larger blocks where it could catch the sun and "sparkle", for lack of a better term.

Hmm. I would think that the metallic fabric is used so much more sparingly in baseball that it would work better. I sure wouldn’t want to see a jersey made out of it. And in the case of the Brewers, it’s just an outline. No great patches of gold, no gold numbers. The Rams use the color a lot more than the Brewers. And, of course, using athletic gold for all flat applications would be key. Or maybe you just convinced me. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.
