New MLB jackets this October?

I picked up a jacket at the Giants game the other day, and decided to pass on the new model. They're almost identical to the old ones in design (I didn't even notice they were the new model at first) , and the material seems a lot thinner. It's got a strange spandex material for the collar, hem, and sleeve cuffs that seems really flimsy and is difficult to get to lay right. Overall, I think it's a downgrade.

Looks like they've tweaked it just a little - maybe when they removed the drop-shadow.

The script on this years jacket is identical to last years. Ive seen the jackets side by side and the only difference is the texture.

Is that a new wordmark for the Giants?

Contrast that with the Orioles, also in black and orange. It seems like the Giants are the one of the few teams that don't bring the contrast color (in this case, orange) up to the middle of the sleeves. I'm happy that the O's are continuing to use the 70s swinging bord logo on their sleeve.

yeah, it really is a big downgrade. the tiny sleeve patch bothers me also. it particuarly stood out on the yankees jackets when they caught my eye last night. i wouldn't be surprised if this model is a one and done type thing. i could see MLB using them in '11 and going back to the drawing board in '12. at least, i hope,
