aawagner011 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 4 hours ago, MJD7 said: For sure. To use a more clear-cut example, both the Twins and Brewers are using 3 stripes, but the Twins are clearly bigger (which is a surprise, because the Brewers’ home jersey had really big sleeve stripes on the previous template). As these photos show (as do the real life photos I posted yesterday in this thread), clearly there are different cuff thickness options. Why didn’t Nike offer the Braves a thicker cuff which could fit the stripes while retaining white below the stripe? That Twins example shows they clearly have the space for it, while also being able to do the thin stripes as seen in the Brewers example. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old School Fool Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Looks like Nike has no idea what color Cream is. Once again Nike cannot reproduce a color right. The Brewers and Giants home jerseys have way more yellow in them now for no reason. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind these are still replica jerseys (and as you noted, photoshopped). The font is off. The front numbers for the Cardinals and Orioles are not just smaller versions of the back number. The aspect ratio is different...or at least it was different. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe when I see it on both alternates, it likely won't be as bad, but I at least feel justified in having blank replicas of the others in either the Nike/Majestic style or the one before it. I could tolerate the new trim if they were going for the classic 80s pullover, but I don't think going in that direction works with the current script. This doesn't bother me much, as it mimics the sleeve trim placement of the Orioles' early 90s Russell jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if Nike’s going to create front number fonts for teams that have them for replica jerseys Quote Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

The actual jersey elements can, and probably will, look different. 7 Quote https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the right wordmark for the team, but definitely the wrong style. That Angels uniform reached its peak in its buttondown version. I'm from the 1970s. I dig the 1970s. But pullovers are just bad. There were exactly three teams that looked good in pullovers: the A's and the Pirates in regular-cut pullovers, and the White Sox in their collared shirts (though the collar should have gone all the way around). For every other team, the pullover style was at best ugly, and at worst, on the traditional teams (Red Sox, Cardinals, Giants, Reds), an affront to history. That style should be left in the dustbin of history (alongside powder blue road uniforms). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And completely unnecessary on these replicas, given that they have wider plackets than the gamers are going to have.

I'm already of the opinion that the Orioles would be well-served by two-button pullovers, as their semi-italicized, vanishing point script just doesn't work right across a placket...and REALLY isn't going to look good once Nike splits the middle "o".

Silent Wind of Doom Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I know we've done this before, and I've realized that my love of the Twins' pullovers have more to do with how good-looking I find thick red and blue/the fun of the switched cap color than the actual template (same for California for the former and Boston for both), but whether or not one thinks it's better than the button-down I still think Toronto's deserves some recognition alongside Oakland, Pittsburgh, and Chicago. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all in for moving the batterman logo somewhere else because the back is so bad right now. Perhaps under the sleeve patch? I dunno but they need to fix that asap. Heh. And we're right back to the old Majestic logo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
