SouthSidePride Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 For either an away or home game. I think that it is intimidating and unique wihtout being radical or ugly. Monochromes work on white or black tops. Any thoughts?Note, this is my first time with a picture overconcept. if you have any tips, please let me know...

Redskins24 Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 I think it looks pretty cool...I never thought about what that would look like.You should try doing black tops and pants with white socks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallWonk Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I think it looks pretty cool...I never thought about what that would look like.You should try doing black tops and pants with white socks.Yeah, a team named after the color of its hosiery must wear that color of socks. However, this is the one team that could pull off all-black road uniforms. I like the look here a lot. My only concern would be whether it might be too hot for day games.

MrAsterisk Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 Not bad, although the stripe on the pants should have a silver twin to match the sleeve cuffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronChefShark Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I doubt the players would want to wear that in the middle of the summer in hot, muggy Chicago. US state flag concepts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ltravisjr Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I don't know... its like going to a funeral or something... Well, considering the way the Sox have been playing Seriously, this looks better then I would have thought but yes, please use white socks for this!LT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddball Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I agree with the pantleg stripe should be the same as the sleeve stripe. As far as the socks go, I'd say go to black socks with white striped stirrups, like the Sox did in 1969-70. And yes, my first thought when I saw this was softball, not that it's bad, but watching the all purple Washington Huskies on ESPN, yeah it'd fit perfectly for softball. And yes, I do know that in the early years of baseball there were solid colored uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravenmaster Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 It might be a cool weather only kind of thing, but it looks good. And great picture as well, I almost didn't notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthSidePride Posted June 2, 2007 Author Share Posted June 2, 2007 UPDATE:Also, the team has shown the propensity to wear the black jerseys in hot weather, such as the Cubs Sox 105 degree sweatfest a few years back. If they go on a winning streak, they will wear the same jersey the entire time, pending the fact they can. HereCometheHawks.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I doubt the players would want to wear that in the middle of the summer in hot, muggy Chicago.I dunno, shark...heh, I know New Zealand's cricket team used to wear beige uniforms, but in recent years they were able to switch to black unis when technological advancements enabled them to have less absorbent unis made.

It could also have the unfortunate side effect of inspiring other teams to bring back dark, team-colored pants. Then you get the Indians looking like giant blood clots and the Pirates looking like human bananas. I don't want that. Not at all. And if you think I'm wrong, remember that when the Sox went to the black/silver color scheme, they became the ONLY team in MLB to have an alternate jersey. You see what's happened since then. "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it... In old New York..."In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jman077 Posted June 2, 2007 Share Posted June 2, 2007 I don't know... its like going to a funeral or something... Maybe I am.Be careful of the ring of fire.As far as the pants go, I didn't really like the first set, but the new set looks good. I like the grey and white stripes, and it looks good with white sox.

You see what's happened since then. ya startin to slip, Vitamin while ruggers don't wear long pants, caps or batting helmets, cricketers do. One-day internationals see colored kits come out, and NZ's used to be beige because as was pointed out, black usually absorbs heat like crazy...not good when you're out there for close to 8 hours. heh, if anybody could or would do it in the bigs, it'd probably be the Sox, and ya know they got them coolbase jerseys out now, I figure they could get coolbase pants.and on the Sox being the only team with alts when they switched to black, I recall the Orioles still had orange jerseys back then.
