DarthMan Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 At home, this uniform is nice (with the white pants).But coupled with the tan pants on the road it is ugly!PicI just don't think the two go well together.Discuss "We have nothing to fear except fear itself."

The problem is...they DON'T match. Here are the Padres' colors:The "Sand" is brighter, and yellow-er than the road uniform color ("Khaki"). I think they clash, personally.

Korkie Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 I like the blue jersey, tan/sand pant look. It's the only way the tan/sand looks watchable, IMO.

OMMF Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 i saw that but was too pissed that they showed padres v stl instead of la v the reds I can't imagine why they would want to show 2 first place teams instead of 2 others that are a combined 25.5 games back. I think the two colors are far enough apart (distance-wise) that you don't notice the difference too much. Yeah, you can see it but it doesn't clash as much as some other teams with different shades.

edensker Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 I cannot stand the current Padres uniforms, from the colors to the font to . . . well, everything about them. It is remarkable how this franchise changes uniforms so frequently, yet nearly always manages to have one of the bottom five sets of uniforms in the game.

Absolutely true. Have they ever had a good look? I have liked a lot of their uniforms throughout their history but you'll never get a consensus that ANY of their looks have been great. Some will like one or two sets but most people don't like most of them. I'm just an exception. I don't like their 70s sets (1973-1979). I don't like their 90s set (1991-2003). Everything else I love though. Love the 1969 unis, 1985-1990, and the current set. Each person will have a different opinion I think. -DanielCheck Out My Podcast!

BBTV Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I personally like the khaki road concept. However, I'm not a fan of the script they chose. It just doesn't go with anything else in their package. If they throw the SD on the shirt like late 80s style, it might look better.

SEMOSTLfan Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Personally i think the problem with the current padres set is that theres no consistency between uniforms. With most teams their road uniform very much resembles their home uniform i.e. (Cardinals, Braves among others) I think the Padres could make this work if they eliminated that awful font on their road uniforms. I'd be interested to see what the "SD" logo would look like on the road uniforms...i think it may be an improvement. Another possiblity would be to put the "San Diego" in the same font as the home uniforms although it may me difficult to read. Could anyone do concepts of these ideas? I'm not great at them.

If they throw the SD on the shirt like late 80s style, it might look better. well, the Cubs' roads rarely look anything like the homes, nor do the Yankees roads resemble the homes. In that same token, the Royals use script for the home wordmark but block for teh road wordmark. I see no problem with the Padres' roads looking almost nothing like the homes.
