Wow, what a mess. This design is the complete antithesis of the Pirates' long-established identity, and sitcks out horribly in an otherwise-classy uniform set. It looks like a bootleg knockoff, or one of those unfortunate late-'90s fashion jerseys. Would it really have been so hard to wear a black vest with yellow sleeves - you know, something that actually looks like the frickin' Pirates?

On a somewhat-related note, are they also keeping the pointless pinstriped alternates?

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. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

it'd be a little mo better if they had gold numbers instead of black...so, for instance, they don't look like a simple recolor of the home white. I like that they brought the old alt cap back though.

Gotta agree with ya sod. Black vests with yellow undershirts would have been awesome. The post-gazette has a poll asking yes or no on the red jerseys and it is almost 50/50 though. I am shocked.

OK, I thought long and hard about this. Is it a bad uniform - not totally. Should the Pirates be using it - Heck No! The black vest, gold sleeves idea would have been awesome.

Of course, if the Bucs finally start winning again it won't matter what they wear.

And yes they are still using the pinstripe uni.

On a personaly note - 200th post!! Only took me 29 months plus that one year where I just lurked. Everybody keep up the good work, even if I'm not holding up my end of the deal! :D

Let this go down with the pillbox hat and late 70's pullovers as one of the worst bucs jerseys ever.

The pirates... winning?... Ahahahahahaha.

Im probably the most pro-pittsburgh person here and I think thats funny.

Best look they couldve done IMO (Totally unconventional, yes, but still cool in my book) wouldve been a black vest, red sleeves, same hat as the one brought out today, BLACK PANTS (Yes), and red socks.

Perfection.
