BlazerBlaze Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Hate to bump an old thread, but anyone know when this is happening?I honestly don't think that anybody knows. I'm starting to think that we really aren't changing anything and this is all a bunch of baloney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Last time the Braves unveiled a new alternate, nobody knew about it until they wore it on the field, so it wouldn't be shocking if this new one had a similar soft rollout.

Bouj Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Yeah, there was no real indication anything was coming, and then they went and showed up in the opener in the navy alts. If they are just tweaking one of the alts, they may just do that again. Go Astros!Go Texans!Go Rockets!Go Javelinas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBGKon Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Well that's stupid.To you it is, but if the team has precedence and has done a during-the-season unveiling, whats the problem other than the fact you want it NOW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Isn't it true that the Braves' navy alt wasn't listed in the Style Guide before it was unveiled? I thought ColorWerx said he didn't know of it until opening night? The Braves might not keep this one under wraps since it has already been reported.

BlazerBlaze Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Well that's stupid.I agree. I mean, at least give us a heads up like "Hey yall, we're going to change some around, but you cant see it till the opener. Have fun speculating!" Would that be the ultimate blueball? Yes, but atleast we know something was coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayJaxon Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Well we gotta look at it this way too...We are in the minority here. We are sports uniform nuts. Millions of other sports fans don't care. So while we wait to see if an alternate has piping or if someone adds a patch, most others won't even notice until someone mentions it. I want to know what my favorite team is doing just like everyone else. But a team doesn't hold out on showing their stuff off just to get one over on the CCSLCers. Nobody knew about Atlanta's last alt...chances are this next one won't be seen until it's on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simpsontide Posted January 15, 2012 Author Share Posted January 15, 2012 Atlanta is keeping this real quiet. I hear a January unveil is on tap and this month is drying up pretty quick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamblinGamblinTiger Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I asked the manager at the Braves CNN Clubhouse Store about this the other day, and he said that he had not heard anything about it. He claimed to had heard the same rumors, but nothing official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Hopefully the number is just a bad photoshop, because the mismatched blue looks horrible (unless the wordmark is trimmed in black - can't tell. Either way that's sloppy.) If there's no front number or if the colors match, then that's not bad at all, though I don't like that they'll have two home uniforms that are so close to each other.

Magnum Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 That's most likely it. The alternate logo that's been referred to must be the sleeve patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Weird... It looks like black piping and outline around the Braves script. But it looks like navy outlines on the back. The rumor that I had heard was it was going to be worn with the home hat and an existing pair of pants. The jersey looks cream to me, so something just doesn't line up to me. I'll reserve my final judgement until there's an official announcement and we find out everything uniform related, but I really think the Braves set has been going downwards and getting sloppier every year since they added the red alternate.

This uniform is a throwback to the 60's era. Looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Will this supplant the ugly blue jersey or the ugly red jersey? or will the Braves now have five regular uniforms? ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
