SF Giants away unis

Recommended Posts

The Giants away jerseys look bad with that boring font they use to spell out San Francisco. They need to use the same font they utilize for their warm-up jackets or go back to just using the interlocking SF.

But that's just my opinion, and I could be wrong.

I agree with you a lot, Gothamite, but I would love to see the San Francisco jacket script end up on the road uniforms. Will never happen, now that they've added piping to the road uni, but definitely SHOULD happen.

Why they ever f****d with the away uniform in the first place is beyond me, but I was never particularly in love with that script. It's not a bad script by any means, but I'd really like to see them go with something more traditional that matches the home script better. The SF crest would be a decent compromise if they're going to insist on using the completely out of place piping on the road jersey. The San Francisco cursive script would be a complete disaster. Leave that for the BP unis and the jacket.

Yes. They messed it up by adding the placket piping. Also, the road alt is garbage and is a nod to a time which doesn't need nodding to.

Agreed on both counts. I forgot that they had ruined their roadie this year.

And I know it has been said before ... but they won the 2010 World Series wearing this jersey. No idea why they made it a throwback so quickly.

IMO the gold shadow, which many on here don't care for, makes that uniform. It's very subtle and not really visible on the TV, but I still think it's a really nice touch that makes it from "generic" to "nice".

Still the Giants' best ever road look:

Best look is right here, man...

mark me down for that one too. the city name is just really long, no matter how you do it, its going to look a bit awkward across the chest. the monogram is a very nice solution. i have some issues with grey uniforms in baseball but thats a whole other thing

I'm not much of a fan of placket piping in general. In the Giants' case, the placket piping is even worse because it doesn't match the sleeve piping.

Those were just a tweak away from perfection.

honestly the plain font on the away just seems to work...the stylized/serifed/scalloped font on the homes just looks muddled and blurry when you convert it to "san francisco" because the letters are too small...I'm assuming this is why this is why the original roads went that direction in the first place.
