phutmasterflex Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 CoolWhipYou're saying it wheird.I think we're gonna have this argument for a hwhile.Back on topic. I do wonder if they are just going to make the regular caps in this DE material and give the players options to either wear the coolbase or DE cap since they essentially look nearly the same Go A's!

rxmc89 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Angels wearing California throwbacks tonight.Unfortunately they're being a bunch of cheapskates and wearing their regular red batting helmets and it looks like crap. BTW, what year are they supposed to be from? They look like a strange hybrid of their early '70s uniforms and their '80s uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still MIGHTY Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 That particular incarnation is such a jumble. The "A" on the hat doesn't match the "A" on the jersey, in the halo or in the body of the letter. The other letters have weird distribution of weight in the letters. To me, the letters never look like they line up. THICK collar compared to the much smaller arm piping. That Red Sox number font. That particular edition of the California Angels doesn't work for me. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterchaoss Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 You know, I just notice this. the name to me looks like its trying to recreate the bend in the state, which is why it seem off.

gosioux76 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 There's just something off-putting about seeing a 70s or 80s-styled uniform but in a modern, baggy cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jungle Jim Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Angels wearing California throwbacks tonight.The width of the red neck stripe is comical. Why can't they ever get the details right with these throwbacks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddball Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Angels wearing California throwbacks tonight.The width of the red neck stripe is comical. Why can't they ever get the details right with these throwbacks?So they can do thick neckline stripes on jerseys, but they haven't been able to figure out how to do thick sleeve stripes for replicas? I realize this is from a different era than the 80's version, but I don't understand why they can't do thick arm stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrodsep Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 The Indians and Royals wore 1974 throwbacks yesterday...Love those Indians retros but would have loved for them to go full red. Also, that cap is sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they pay for them, how much do they cost? $50 each? They can easily recoup that money by selling them on ebay after the game. Furthermore, how many would they even need? 15? I just don't understand how organizations with budgets of $200,000,000.00 choose to scrimp on something that costs so little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
