WSU151 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I just noticed the Nationals red hat with the blue bill also has blue eyelets. Get outta here with that bush league/college look.I can't remember the last a major league baseball team wore hats with the eyelets in a contrasting color.I think someone brought up the St. Louis Browns a few pages back. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zpqmaowl Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 These Cardinals jerseys are awesome.But they would be worlds better if there were in grey and piping-free. the worst helmets design to me is the Jacksonville jaguars hamlets from 1995 to 2012 because you can't see the logo vary wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I just noticed the Nationals red hat with the blue bill also has blue eyelets. Get outta here with that bush league/college look.I normally agree that contrasting eyelets look bush-league, but I actually think it works on that cap.

phutmasterflex Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Chris Young of the A's wearing stirrups with gold sannies. He wore them with white sannies during road trip. But the bummer is that they aren't really stirrups, as reported by A's beat writer https://twitter.com/CaseyPrattCSN/status/323170026846834688 Go A's!

STL FANATIC Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 These Cardinals jerseys are awesome.But they would be worlds better if there were in grey and piping-free.So if they were their road uniforms and not a stupid alternate. I agree.These uniforms suck.Not in and of themselves, but as part of this identity, they suck suck suck.The logo looks nice. I've always been slow to come around on a St. Louis birds on the bat logo, because I hate the notion a lot of you have that teams HAVE to have their city name on the road. I think that's a fine guideline but a silly rule. And I still feel that way. My preference remains Cardinals on both home and road, but it's not a strong preference any more. I'd be totally fine with this St. Louis script on the road. JUSTIN STRIEBEL | PORTFOLIO | RESUME | CONTACT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJBerthiaume Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 My apologies if this has been discussed, but I don't think the Twins have worn their normal whites at home yet, it's just been the throwback-style off whites. Are these the new primary home duds or is this just like a first month thing? I feel ashamed that I don't know my own team's uni situation, but I don't remember hearing anything about them changing to the nameless throwbacks as the normal homes.

kw11333 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 The Blue Jays powder blue jerseys were also their roads back in the say, but yet they wore them at home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigEd76 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Not sure if it counts since the Phils were the "road" team, but they wore gray at Citizens Bank Park in 2010 when the Blue Jays "hosted" them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CubsFanBudMan Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Watching the Astros in Anaheim on MLB Network right now, and the orange bill really doesn't bother me with the road uni. Brings out the orange in the uni more. I thought it might look off to me as it did to others.As far as Astros caps with this uni set, I think the more orange the better. Orange sleeves and socks as the default would help, too.Also, they showed the Rangers before this, and they were wearing blue alts with blue caps, and it occurred to me that they match much better than the Cubs alt jerseys do with their caps.

The Mojo Maniac Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Mariners too a few years agoThat was just two years ago. Series moved to Seattle due to scheduling conflict with a U2 concert at (Name-that-corporate-sponsor) Stadium.I found it interesting that the Marlins only wore those black alts for all three of those games. I guess some things never change. From San Berdoo to Kalamazoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea... and I'd never considered it before, so... yeah, I'm probably seeing things.I don't have exact color specs for New Era colors, but since they both use the same cap color, it's not surprising that there's a mismatch:These are the official Pantone Textile color specs for the Cubs and Rangers' Blue.(The MLB didn't specify Textile specs until 1996 - that's why the "from date" is from 1996.)

CubsFanBudMan Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Thanks, ColorWerx. That's the difference my eye sees. My blue jersey doesn't match my cap (nor does any Majestic product I own), yet the Antigua products I own (a shirt and a couple sweatshirts) look almost navy to they eye but match the cap perfectly. So they must not be using the correct color according to style. "Mazarine Blue" is much closer to that color than "Classic". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Yeah, New Era "rounds off" the team colors into one of its standard shades. I thought Majestic did as well, producing all "dark royal" shirts with the exact same fabric. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.
