bosrs1 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Who do we talk to about a change needed on the main site to a uniform? The current Oakland A's 1993 away uniform is not entirely correct. http://sportslogos.net/logo.php?id=jst0igiqj9omeufxh6hhjl0ntThe cap for this uniform should be solid green with a white "A's" on it. Basically what is there with the yellow bill and cap topper being green. It was a one off cap they only wore that year before they turned the "A's" yellow in 1994.

BBTV Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 The solid-green cap with white A certainly existed for a season. Here they are in Dressed to the 9s.

This one just looks off with their yellow socks, kind of unbalanced if you will. That said I'm sad I can't find it anywhere to buy one. I had one years ago but lost it at some point along the way.

DarthBrett Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 So do we contact you in order to get corrections or accurate updates? I have literally posted dozens and dozens of comments on the individual uni pages that need corrections. It would be nice to consolidate all of the errors. I can certainly post pics along with the needed corrections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I cannot guarantee that they will all get done (based on my resources), or that they will be completed in a certain amount of time. My time is a bit restricted now due to both school and work.And I usually don't check the comments on the logo site, so forgive me for not noticing any prior remarks. Thanks.

kw11333 Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I always thought I knew a ton about sports jerseys; I was quickly proven wrong when I joined this forum. The detail some of you know (about sports jerseys) is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 The A's away cap (either version of it) is IMO the most unnecessary of all road (or secondary) caps. They're saying that they still want some yellow on it, just not as much as a brim (so they change the color of their monogram, which is IMO never a good idea).The gold brim / green crown had a chance to be iconic (it helped that the fat guy in Highway to Heaven always wore it) and it works perfectly well with their road uniforms, which have just as much yellow as their home (unlike other teams that play with their colors from home to road.)

One of the biggest mistakes the A's ever made was creating a road cap. Their "home" cap works with all of their uniforms and always has worked. However as time has gone on and they've come up with now two black alternate caps and of course the original road cap with the white A, the green with yellow A road cap no longer seems so bad in the grand scheme.

The Golden One Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 I still like how the current A's road cap came about. During the 1993 season a few of the players thought it needed to be green and yellow. So they took a yellow marker to the white A's on that. Wish I could find a picture of one of those colored in. Of course that hat (green/white) will always be on film. That was the hat the year Angels in the Outfield was filmed at the Coliseum, so was used in that movie.

I think they let the starting pitcher choose the hat, If I remember correctly. By the end of the season, it seemed the only time they wore the Jay hat was when Romero started at home.

hawk36 Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Ask and ye shall receive (usually, that is).Very nice. Now if only they still sold it somewhere Never liked this combo. White on cap is just too bright when there is basically no other white in the uniform. I'd either make hat logo yellow, or remove yellow from uniform and replace with white outlines.
