Sec19Row53 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 That 'new' logo above looks like the 2016 introduction of the 3-D printed logo I mentioned above. https://www.businessinsider.com/dodgers-new-batting-helmet-2016-4 ETA: https://uni-watch.com/2024/03/04/la-dodgers-make-changes-to-batting-helmet-logo/ Aha - here's a better explanation. It was re-designed to match the cap logo, and it is an embroidered logo rather than one of flexible material. 1 Quote It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both the Yankees and Tigers used their two available uniform slots on a set of home and road Spring Training jerseys, and yes, Spring jerseys count against the four. Wow... That is very stupid, but at least it does confirm for us that most of what we're seeing is officially new on-field in-season alternates.

So don't count out the on-field jersey having a terrible one! Or, excuse me, not a replica, but a *limited* jersey! (Calling it limited makes no sense to me, but what else is new) Those shop images have looked 110% computer generated from the start to me. I'm not trusting a thing on them until I see them in photos or video. 3 hours ago, SilverBullet1929 said: I can't tell the difference in the Dodgers helmets. 2 hours ago, Sec19Row53 said: I *think* it's more of a stitched style logo rather than a puffy sticker. More like cloth and less like foam. PS - You clearly weren't the only one who wasn't sure on the difference. 3 minutes ago, Survival79 said: One of the articles linked mentioned that, while the Japan link is the application of the logo, the true identity change that is happening here is that the helmet logo and cap logo now match. The helmet logo has always been wider. One of those little quirks, likely not a purposeful design choice like the Detroit D. I remember the Yankees having a similar situation, with the cap logo seeming to be the "print logo" but much chonkier. Sadly, I believe that went away with the change from the lovely shiny helmets that reflected the grand circle of lights around the Stadium.

TBGKon Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I've noticed that the Phillies have been wearing their home whites and road grays a lot more than usual this spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankees and Detroit have navy jerseys this spring that wont be worn in the regular season, so I guess I'm surprised the Phils didnt keep the red around for that reason.

They're getting City Connect uniforms which puts them at 4+1. They had to drop one, so red was chosen. 1 Quote https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 The Dodgers helmet logo is a similar case to the Yankees, where they have multiple LAs like the Yankees have multiple NYs. The Yankees cap NY doesn't match the helmet NY, and same with the Dodgers (albeit the Dodgers LAs were much closer to each other than the NYs.) 99.999999999999% of people will never notice that the Dodgers' helmet logo changed, but that's why we're the 0.0000000001%. 1 Quote "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."

The Phils' current uniform rotation is their home pinstripes, road grays, powder blue throwbacks and cream Sunday home alts, and so, because of Nike's 4+ 1 rule, the red jerseys became the odd man out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 The whole concept is flawed considering there's guys wearing championship uniforms who weren't even on the team last year. And it still looks like a glorified softball uniform. 1 Quote "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."

BBTV Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 The Phillies botched theirs by not simply making the stars gold. It was such an obvious move to make, and would have lead to tons of new merch with the gold-star script.
