ksupilot Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Sharp look with the orange. Maybe they'll wear it more often.I wish they would. It looks great, which can only mean the orange hats will disappear after this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCall Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Steve Berthiuame on BBTN during the Astros/Rangers highlights: "This, THIS, is how the Astros are supposed to look." (Wearing the shooting star throwbacks) It's become so common for him to comment on uniforms that Aaron Boone and Jose Cruz, Jr. asked him if the Padres were supposed to look like the throwbacks they were wearing before he could even say anything. (I agreed with the brown/gold, but not design)It's nice to see a uniform-nerd like us on national tv.I'm convinced he's a member around here. If not, maybe someone needs tweet him an invitation. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalgaryJaysFan Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Both the Padres and Astros looking beautiful on the field yesterday! A few question for those who live around either team: Do you see a lot of the retro merchandise on display and being worn by the fans throughout the season? Is it the majority of the fans that want the Padres to be brown and yellow again, or just a vocal minority? I recall last year there being more blue than black around Rogers Centre.....even though it wasn't their uniform colour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall last year there being more blue than black around Rogers Centre.....even though it wasn't their uniform colour!If you look around on the Astros store and some other places that sell Astros stuff there seems to be a lot of orange and blue shirts and hats.In Houston, you do see a lot of the navy/orange 80's era Astros stuff. The team sucking for the last 6 years helped with that. When they were a contender (through 2006), you had to look far and wide to find any of the navy/orange in stores or being worn anywhere. I've contended that the team is choosing to dump the current uniforms for a reimagined version of the past because the fans are celebrating nostalgia for a "better time" in Astros history (which is BS, since the Astros sucked a whole lot more when they wore the navy/orange).Regardless, the new owner has every right to change the uniforms, and I am cautiously optimistic about Larry Dierker's hints.

rroy0824 Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Not sure if it was mentioned but the Tigers and Pirates are wearing their Negro Leauge throwbacks today. Both look pretty good, minus the helmets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njmeadowlanders Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Are the Blue Jays jerseys doubleknit instead of cool-base this season?This doesn't look like cool-base, especially without the armpit air-vents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalgaryJaysFan Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Are the Blue Jays jerseys doubleknit instead of cool-base this season?This doesn't look like cool-base, especially without the armpit air-vents.All Blue Jays jerseys are double knit this year. Apparently when the new uniform set was developed, the players preferred to have double knit over the new Cool Base jerseys - of so Ive read. It had something to do with the cool base jerseys getting too heavy-feeing when they were saturated with sweat. As far as I know, you can't even get a Cool Base Blue Jays jersey this year.

Old School Fool Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Looks like the Brewers will wear throwbacks on the 4th of July...On a sidenote, does anyone remember that amazing Brewers hat from like 2001? I think they sold and maybe wore it after 9/11 happened, and was probably the catalyst in there being a Stars and Stripes promotion. The M on the hats had the US Flag texture in it. I remember wanting one as a kid really bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
