With Chicago’s known gang violence problem I’m not a fan. Gangs have adopted the White Sox imagery. Adding a look that is very much within their own brand language doesn’t mean they’re adding gang imagery, that’s what the Clippers did.

I'm not a fan or anything, but I see why they did it in LA and see why they carried it to Chicago. It's not my aesthetic, but it definitely has its marketplace. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 I actually really like that White Sox uniform. If they ever want to update their look, they should go with "White Sox" and "Chicago" wordmarks in that font and use those blackletter numbers. That "Chi" cap should become a full-time alternate.

burgundy Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 With the all black jersey and pants, they really missed an opportunity to have actual white socks. That would have looked so nice. Overall, these look okay. They still look like the White Sox, even if they do look like a GTA knockoff, and I'm sure those hats and jerseys will be extremely popular with their target market.

_DietDrPepper_ Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Yikes. I hate the “southside” thing. Really opens the door to a lot of bad things. They’re mildly better then Boston, but they still aren’t good. Nike’s got 3 swings and 3 misses so far.

Not sure if anyone realized it but Miami had new pants, they just had a single blue stripe, Miami's regular pants have a blue, black and red piping normally.

SilverBullet1929 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 One thing I've noticed with both Miami and now the White Sox City Connect, even if the uniforms have faults, the really strong wordmarks are making for some excellent hoodies. I'm a Marlins fan and can't see myself wearing their city connect jersey but I'd love to eventually grab the hoodie version, and I can see the same for the White Sox one. The hoodie displays the best part of the CC jerseys and let's you get away from whatever doesn't work about the jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverBullet1929 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 The only thing I don't like about the White Sox one... it feels like this is for a very specific target audience, like more specific than usual. I can't see a Chicago businessman grabbing one of these jerseys when he visits the ballpark after leaving the office early to catch a game. It's too "street" for my tastes, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
