bosrs1 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I think what the 1936 uniform has to offer is a really nice wordmark for the road jerseys.Clear and classic, yet very distinctive.I love how 3 of the guys in that first photo of the Padres still have "Hollywood" on their jerseys because the move was so last minute.

bosrs1 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Interlocking SD, or Swingin' Friar?Not sure of the exact change, but that is part of other changes they are making. There are a good number of teams making major and minor changes throughout the league. Should be fun.Where do you get your information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds very certain for someone who doesn't know of the "exact change". No disrespect intended though, just sounds like strong speculation, like the rest of us.

oddball Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I was never a fan all that much of the Padres late 80's to mid 90's brown pinstriped look, but the more I look back at it, the more it becomes the best look for the Padres and they should return to that look. The numbers were good and everything about that set was good. It was original, and they completely killed their look as soon as they went to navy blue.

CubsFanBudMan Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Unless I'm mistaken, I believe Showtime is one of our CCSLC insiders that drops in and confirms the changes to come without actually leaking it. I trust that what he's saying is accurate.As for the Padres, I like the jersey Gothamite trots out in these threads regularly. Always like seeing it, because it shows that brown and gold can be done without the overkill of the '70s and '80s set. If they don't go with that, then I also am a fan of the late '80s look. I love the brown and orange, especially the brownish roads with pinstripes. (Two guilty pleasures in one -- road pinstripes and non-gray road.) Love those caps and considered buying one often. Probably the reason to this day I think brown and red would look great for the Cubs (and agree with whoever proposes it here for the Indians - admiral?)Anyway, brown can be done well, and ultimately, San Diego should be the one to do it. The Padres could own it.EDIT: On a side note MLB Network just showed Orlando Hudson getting injured, and the Padres and Mariners are both wearing '80s throwbacks. 1984 road browns for the Pads.

Just wanted to know his sources, please accept my apologies Showtime. The Padres look like they're wearing pullovers so it would technically be the 1981-1983 road uniforms.

Lights Out Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I'd still like to see the Padres go with these:The only changes I would make would be to use real vests instead of the weird fake-vest look they had going on there, and to use the 1985-2003 monogram on the hats. Also, this minus the orange and with the monogram I selected would make a good alternate jersey: POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I still think the 2004 set could have been something special with a few tweaks here and there. Navy/sky/sand was a perfect color scheme. San Diego should look contemporary. None of this Taco Bell stuff. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showtime029 Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Where do you get your information?Not trying to be the ultra mysterious poster who is vague and annoying, but I really can't say where. Sorry. You can trust it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Showtime029 Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I'd be interested in knowing too. Sounds very certain for someone who doesn't know of the "exact change". No disrespect intended though, just sounds like strong speculation, like the rest of us.Well, that isn't how it works. At this point, you know what is being changed, but not what the specific change is.For instance, a hypothetical:Canucks are changing their home uniform, logo, and secondary logo. You know that much, but you wouldn't have seen the new logo or uniforms...yet. I understand why it might be considered speculation. Not a problem.

TheFloridianLogoMan Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I know most of you have seen these already, but for those who haven't, I think this is the best place to repost what I certainly hope the Padres will wear one day....if not something remotely close to thishttp://boards.sportslogos.net/index.php?showtopic=80941&st=0&p=1570924&hl=recolorization&fromsearch=1entry1570924 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poser Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Maybe the Padres fans should spend more time going to games instead of worrying about jersey colours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCall Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 It's been years but I'm still angling for this.Basically, yes. Just give the wordmark an update, no drastic changes just a little clean-up, and it would be their best possibility. The home can have a matching Padres mark or even a script. The brown and gold would be unique to them as the Browns use brown and orange. But this set could easily be brought into this time period. Those other monstrosities are so dated in the 70's and 80's. They'd look hideous as an everyday set today. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
