CaliforniaGlowin Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Yeah I was questioning if the pants were navy also. But there's no navy in the color scheme so probably not. Last updated 5/23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Wind of Doom Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 That piping detail. It must be some kind of light they're shining on them. Huge difference between that and the color detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korkie Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 The jersey is gorgeous and the hat with a blue brim provide a base for a new primary set. 3 "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."Dr. Kelso: My son is a big baseball fan.

Obviously white pants would have been better. Because this is baseball. But the black pants are preferable to pants of the same colour as the jersey. The modified angular trident cap logo goes well with the Pilots-inspired "Seattle" lettering. Just as the original rounded trident logo paired nicely with the original lettering.

BBTV Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Royal or maybe even yellow pants (and obviously white) make this great. A blue-brim on the cap would make it even betterr. 1 "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

I think CaliforniaGlowin mentioned them dropping the pants eventually. If the normal white pants didn't have the navy pinstripe down the side, then the white pants would be a fine substitution. And my wallet definitely took a hit. Completely worth it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coco1997 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 The decision to go with black "slacks" for this set is made even weirder by the fact that the most recent team to unveil their City Connects less than two weeks ago also had black pants. Also, for claiming to honor "100 years of baseball in Seattle," the references to the Rainiers and Steelheads are dubious at best. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adsarebad Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Ridiculous Seattle CC uni. There are already so many blue teams. Navy, silver and green is awesome! This is a garbage look for the Mariners....... not everything old is good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aawagner011 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Up until now, I thought the leaks showed navy blue trim. Knowing that it is black makes me like it a bit less. When I saw the trident cap logo, my interest was piqued. Then I saw the black bill which brought it down a notch. Then I saw the disgusting full uniform photo with black pants, and that brought it down at least another five notches. This is somewhere around a 3 or a 4 out of 10. Great jersey. Somewhat decent cap (hate the black, just like the Dodgers black trim), and the pants severely brings this down. I was very excited for this one and they blew it. At least with the Rangers, theirs feels somewhat throwback inspired so the black pants don’t feel totally out of left field. The Mariners are awful, though.

aawagner011 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 It looks like the leaked Mariners socks were a concept that was close to the final product, but underwent a logo swap. I bet the original cap was supposed to have the S with the compass and they changed it to the trident M later in the process. It would be odd otherwise to have an unrelated logo on the socks.

Webfooter Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I was really liking everything until I got to the pants. Such an awful choice and one that sounds like Nike pushed on them doing. Probably have to give the set a 4-5/10 compared to a like a 7-8/10 with blue pants and a 9/10 with white pants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namefornamesake Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Overall, I think this is a good City Connect uni, and it's certainly thousands of times better than the mess Texas put out a few weeks ago. I appreciate that they went with the trident M rather than the cartoony S it seemed as if they were planning to use weeks ago. And the black pants? They wouldn't be my first choice for this kind of uniform, but they're not a deal breaker for me either. However, I sincerely hope that this isn't a sneak peek of a future blue-yellow rebrand. Blue and teal fit the Mariners perfectly, and if they switch to the retro stylings full-time, they'll end up needlessly impeding on the identity the Brewers have been cultivating. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shumway Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Not a huge fan of all the bevels or the black, but these aren't so bad. Those pants though...woof. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
