MEANS Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 I'd prefer the sleeve tabs be Dodger Blue and the makers mark as well, then the red numbers could have still been used. I'd also like the numbers to be fully visible and to use single digits as well. The LA/D mark feels very forced. If they chose to use their current word mark and numbers with the above mentioned color tweaks, I think it could be a good uniform. Currently the typography and updated marks do not feel very Dodger to me and not very LA either. 1 Quote https://www.andrewsterlachini.com/ or http://dribbble.com/MEANS1974 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it's a fun quirk. I do like the name under the number though, that's fun and unique we really only see in basketball. Overall, much better thought out compared to their first CC. 4 Quote "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

swilson160 Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 I appreciate that the weirdest thing about this is the cut-off bottoms of the back numbers, and in their explainers they use Ohtani, whose number includes the two digits where this is least discernible. And then give no explanation for the numbers being cut off whatsoever. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old School Fool Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 1 hour ago, (probably)notabandwagonfan said: So I guess single-digit numbers won't be a thing for the Dodgers new City Connects One of the most traditional teams in all of sports has committed the most uniform sins out of everyone. Everything here is nonsensical and then they cap it off by having no single digit numbers. That's very impressive. 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMU Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 The "upward trajectory" bit is dumb. I would have bought it if they referenced the region's history with aerospace. At least they explained the funfetti look as being the seat colors. That part I can get on board with. The font choices are a stretch but justified. Again though, way too many of these are "city" connect that try way too hard to pigeon hole themselves into team references and not the actual, you know, city. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynasty Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 That cap logo feels super forced. The style of both the LA and D are vastly different and shouldn't be merged together like that. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ltjets21 Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 I was just thinking about this the other day MLB primary hats have to be one of the only thing in professional sports uniform aesthetics currently that do not have a single bad look. Even the Marlins which I do not particularly enjoy at least look professional. The only hat here that isnt current is the D-Backs. Sure, some teams have better looks as alternates or in their history but in a world where brands continued to get watered down this is one positive. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except that 0# could actually be a number, like it was for Benny Santiago. I believe the rules say that 09 is different than 9, but I'm not certain about that. ( He chose it because he didn't want the straps from his chest protector to split the 9 in half, so 09 allowed it to stand on its own.) IMO the worst thing about this (and there's like 50 things that could be "the worst") is that the Dodgers should always have red front numbers. That's their thing. That's what makes a Dodgers uniform. That could have been the tie in to the history of the team, or whatever silly-ass dumb-ass explanation they'd come up with.
