I tried to mix orange with black evenly. The hats are a throwback.

The hats are a throwback? What year? It's not that I don't believe you, but I don't remember them.

They came east in '54 with the full bird... cartoon bird in '66... they used a block "B" at home one year... then the white panels in the front in the late '70s... then back to the full bird in the late '80s. I'd love to see photographic evidence of the number hats.

I like the uniforms, but I am not likin' the hats. How would you market a "generic Orioles" hat? I guess it like marketing an Alabama helmet...

In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17.

I just meant to an earlier time in general

Cool concept but imagine the headache New Era would go through creating hats from 1 to 99 in every size :blink::wacko:

I can't think of any MLB team that wore uniform numbers on their caps in place of a logo. So this really isn't a throwback to any "earlier time in general" at all.

And as novel concepts go, it's noble but verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry unwieldy.

Here's MY idea of a Baltimore Orioles' alternate concept.

If you're looking for an example of uniforms mixing past with present, make it this one:

On the socks, I put 2 pairs, one just plain black, the other very nostalgic socks, the ones they used to wear back in the day. These the O's can wear strictly for home games.

I'm diggin' the stripes on the hose. Very sharp...

alouettesfan - where did you get the template for that piece of art? i'm intrigued

btw, if you were trying to rid of the orthonigos-whatever bird, then trash it on the sleeves...otherwise, looks great :D
