This jersey doesn't have placket piping and the sleeve piping is red. The current(?) has silver piping. This might be a Spring Training only jersey but it's new either way, and I thought Nike was doing away with Spring Training jerseys. Great catch. I’d be shocked if this is a ST only jersey and fully expect it’s the new road alt. The times they had a special jersey just for ST, it used the home script. I found some better photos and it looks like they have swapped everything that was gray for red (including placket piping). I kinda liked the gray trim on the road jersey, but this looks good, too. While the gray looked good, it didn’t quite make sense since it was a single braid of trim and they wore it with their standard gray pants which have a blue/red/blue stripe. This red stripe jersey now matches the pants stripe pattern, so I call it either a push or even a slight upgrade. I will miss the contrast of the gray piping since red will be harder to see, but it’s still good. For comparison: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For comparison: So if these ARE the new road alts, the road hats are gonna look even more out of place. They actually worked alright with the previous ones. The white A to grey piping were fairly indistinguishable from even a moderate distance, and caused the red "Atlanta" to push forward more. Nice effect actually. But if the road hat is staying, then it completely looks out of place. Maybe they're ditching it?... Quote https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the grey piping looks great with the gray pants. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coco1997 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Uni-Watch is reporting the Nats are dropping the front numbers from their home whites and navy alts. That's a shame, because I liked the contrasting numbers look. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The white piping is now red. I'm totally cool with this change. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It very well may be. When the Braves showed off the home whites at a fan fest, I saw a couple folks make the same comment about the navy blue trim.

monkeypower Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 The Angels front number has been pushed up. Also, the inconsistent number renderings from the online store may unfortunately be correct as the front number has the drop shadow while the back numbers don't anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, that’s a real wtf decision if there’s ever been one. The Angels just need to start over and clean things up all around. They have some solid components to their identity, but it needs help. I’d start by making the halo gold like those anniversary caps they had sometime in the last decade. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M59 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 RE: the Angels. I don't mind losing the drop shadow from the back #s. Would like to see it go from the front numbers, as well. (I'd also like to see them use plain block numbers like the Cardinals and Orioles do. The pointy bits do nothing for me.) RE: the Nationals. Even if your number font sucks (and theirs does) not having front numbers on a script-front jersey is a no-no in my book. That team is really striving to find ways in which to make their uniform set look worse. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a shame, because I liked the contrasting numbers look. This breaks both, but especially the navy jersey. The cool thing about that look was the contrast and the consistency of it from front to back. Your lettering is white on red and your numbering is red on white no matter which side you're viewing. Plus, the Nationals script is at a steeper angle than some other diagonal scripts, in part to accommodate those chunky numbers. Now you'll just have very noticeable dead space. 2 Quote On 1/25/2013 at 1:53 PM, 'Atom said: For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head.

Silent Wind of Doom Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 2 hours ago, monkeypower said: Have... have I never seen a 4 on the team all these years? That looks so wrong and I thought it was part of what people were complaining about, but apparently that's the way it's always been. The extra serif at the top looks like it's off a completely different team's font. It's all just so weird looking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aawagner011 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Some more looks as more teams report to camp Perforated numbers confirmed for the Fish (also I am liking how much more prominent their sleeve trim is). Yankees in a look we’ll only see for the next month. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 The piping on the jerseys ( such as the Jays ) really makes the jersey look scrunched up. As if the dryer did not do its job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
