tohasbo Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Shame that it took a silly gimmick like that to get the Mets in a proper alternate.Now all that needs to happen is for black to go away entirely and keep ONE blue alternate. They would be fine with zero black anywhere but apparently they do not see things the way we see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still MIGHTY Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Change the "Los" to "New" and the "Mets" to "York" and you're cooking with gas. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Yeah, I was just about to say that this gives you an idea how well the 1987 New York script would work on a button-down jersey. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njmeadowlanders Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 And courtesy of Mets Police, here's the front:Very nice, I like it.A possible basis of the new Mets alternate uniforms for the 2012 season? Maybe. But it sure does look nice than the current black alternates.Hey, they used those "NY" ones in cream back in '09 to gauge interest in a cream for '10 and beyond, which they did with the pinstripe uniform change...I would flock to buy an authentic jersey if it's that w/o the "LOS".

FiddySicks Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Watch them wear the black hats and helmets with this jersey just to crush the dreams of everyone who has good taste.

apeman33 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 At least the "Los" isn't up above and slightly to the left of "Mets" like some of the others have been. This looks much better where as previous designs looked like "Oh, yeah, Heritage Night! Throw a 'Los' on there somewhere." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTernup Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Hopefully we are looking at the 2012 alternate. It seems odd for the mets to "drop" the shadow unless they are planning on dropping it in the future. :fingers crossed: Denver Nuggets Kansas City Chiefs Tampa Bay Rays Colorado Buffaloes Purdue Boilermakers Florida Gators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loogodude90 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Wow, that blue Mets alt looks great. Let's hope it's the basis for their next alt. I'm not a huge anti-BFBS guy, but the Mets black just has to go. It doesn't look "cool" anymore, it just looks ugly and out of place. I still find it so weird that despite all of the red/white/blue in the MLB, there are only 3 teams in the MLB with a "regular blue" alternate. Regular blue has almost become an underused color somehow. WIZARDS ORIOLES CAPITALS RAVENS UNITED Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Why not "Nueva York."That would look great in the '87 script.

The_Admiral Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 It's okay. I don't feel like the Mets need more than white and grey. Solid blue is too much the domain of the Cubs, I suppose. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 So the Twins were supposed to wear the M hats this weekend in honor of the 20th anniversary of the 1991 World Series champions. I'm at work but I got conformation that they are indeed wearing the M caps, but with the cream throwbacks still. Anyone got pics yet? https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they're doing the creams to honor Killebrew, but if you're going to do the '91 thing, go all out. No name on the back, old script, old patches, old stirrups. Do it right.

xTr1pleXx Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 I really, really hope this is a hint at what the Mets will be wearing next year. They look so much better than the terrible black alts.Now just drop the dropshadow from all the jerseys, drop all black in the Mets' identity, use that as the basis for the new alternate jersey, and you have yourself a great identity, instead of the muddled, conflicted mess they have now. 1923 1927 1928 1932 1936 1937 1938 1939 1941 1943 1947 1949 1950 1951 1952 1953 1956 1958 1961 1962 1977 1978 1996 1998 1999 2000 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 the Mets are that rare club with a lousy uniform set that could be fixed so very easily. Drop all the black, make this the template for a blue alt, and instant success. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.
