Silent Wind of Doom 817 Posted October 28, 2020 We were discussing the dome and its effect on the Rays' uniform. Anyone else find them looking really weird under the lights in Arlington? Their Columbia blues looked so much more saturated and deeper than I've ever seen them before. Here's them under the lights at the Trop: And this is them outside under the lights in San Diego: I actually think the Trop lights make it look the best. The Columbia looks lighter and the navy looks a stark dark. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dodgers have never worn cream, and I don’t think they want to be copying the Giants Older Dodgers uniforms (this one from 1952) were definitely an off-white color. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's not cream as much as it is flannel that has aged for close to 7 decades. The original color for those would be much more white. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

White flannels weren’t as saturated white as modern polyester, but they were closer to that than the rich cream color left by fifty years of aging. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You see, it's much softer." 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's only a limited number of ways it's going to look. Heck, their version looks a lot better than mine! I really don't like the way I did the "w" and my "s" is too smooth. I'm looking forward to them promoting it in their style guide. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
