WSU151 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 9 minutes ago, dont care said: They are faux packets with a 1/4 button up like a polo style collar with hidden buttons like in your picture. The Arkansas unis have what looks to be a full placket...are the buttons only above the wordmark? The Nike website says the Vapor Prime template uses a "full snap placket"...which would obviously create a button-less placket as well. https://niketeam.nike.com/en/en_US/p/builder?styleNumber=CT8928 Smart is believing half of what you hear.

Digby Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 At what point does the modern function of a baseball uniform move fully past the traditional form?

As you can see just above the wordmark is a seam on the placket that indicates that’s where the button up starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this mucking around with plackets just looks odd to me. The snaps would provide the added function of being able to rip it off Hulk Hogan style after a walk-off HR, so I'm all in favor of it. None of this faux-placket mess. Hidden buttons or snaps are OK, even if it seems like wasted material, but if it's going to be only one or two buttons on the top, then just make it like the old Mets tops were rather than faking it the rest of the way.

BBTV Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 This looks better than with the seam, but sorta clashes with the more classic looks. The holes are so defined that they look like dots that are part of the design, like how the DBacks had those weird tops and pant legs a few years ago. EDIT: are the numbers transparent? YOu can see pinstripes through the 2, and dots through the 1.

Digby Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Nike was doing that on their soccer jersey numbers in the late 00s and early 10s, until it got to the point where there was more see-through than there was number printing material. Then they stopped because I guess they weren’t saving much back sweat after all, idk.

BBTV Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 It might not be the worst idea if Nike introduced "jogger" style pants for baseball - especially if it gets rid of the pajama look. There's no non-dorky middle ground between blousing high or wearing down by the shoes.
