Beginning this season, adidas will design and create all official on-field uniforms for all seven of the Little League World Series events throughout the United States. Additionally, adidas will outfit all teams with adidas cleats, training apparel and accessories and all coaches will be supplied with athletic footwear and apparel. This will apparently supercede their existing agreement with Easton , who was supplying footware and runs 2022. Easton will still supply equipment.

Clintau24 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Important to note that Russell has recently attempted to exit the uniform-manufacturing business. They stopped with college, planning to do just high school. They've dialed it way back due, I assume, to inability to compete with the other companies.

Last fall they stated an intent to re-enter the uniform business but this deal probably happened before that. Too bad those 3 striprs will probably be all over those uniforms.

MJWalker45 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 My biggest fear was the 3 stripes treatment would conflict with the jerseys but they kept it demure and have them touching each other. It's a good touch. Not a fan of the contrasting sleeves though. They should be one color if there's no side piping. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEANS Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I had a little hand in these, my "Grandstand" font is being used for all the team word marks. Each of the first letters have a little notch that connects with the top corner/cut of the keystone shape which is used in the LL logo. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East is for Baseball Mid-Atlantic is for Softball Great Lakes is Baseball Central is Softball The World Series uniforms for both sports are present in the photo, but the regions are not the same for each sport.

They look more like batting practice jerseys than soccer jerseys. They almost remind me of the jerseys I wore in Little League. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
