    Braves set to unveil new uniforms this weekend

    I’ve seen reports on Twitter that the Atlanta Braves are going to unveil new uniforms this weekend.

    I’m excited to see what they reveal, I personally think their current home white jersey is one of the nicer ones in baseball. However, I think their alts need some work and their gray is just ok (as with basically every gray jersey).

    I’d assume the SDS art department already has the designs and they’ll be in the new game.

    Are the new uniforms going to be used full time? Can't tell from the wording in the post if they're new or alternates.

      Yeah I’m not exactly positive, the posts I’ve seen make it sound like a whole new set. But the original source I think said new uniform.

        Sounded more like just a few alterations ('refreshes') to their current jersey line... with maybe a new alternate jersey. Not really expecting anything like an overhaul.

          Here’s the article on the Braves uniforms:

          http://news.sportslogos.net/2019/01/...-for-2019/amp/

          To recap they slightly tweaked the gray, changed the navy jersey to have red lettering, and re-introduced the red jerseys they wore years back.

            The new navy jerseys look like the Indians version. Also, I hate the tomahawk hats. Hopefully that's only temporary. Never was a fan of the red jerseys.

              I’d rather see them get a completely new look since like a third of the league’s team’s main colors are blue and red.

                Why should they change their color scheme when it's been the same for 100 years? That would be like saying the Steelers should stop wearing black because too many other teams wear black.

                  It just makes them blend together and I’d rather see some variety. I guess you wouldn’t like that I think the Yankees should put the names on the back of their jerseys too.

                  Just because something was good 100 years ago doesn’t mean it is good today.

                    Well as a Braves fan I don't ever want them to change their colors because then they wouldn't be the Braves anymore. Might as well move them to Alberto and call them the Muskrats.

                      Color scheme change? What in the world? LOL


                      Anyway, I'd be all for moving full time to the early 1970s, low "a" throwbacks...just something about them I love.

                        I fully get a Braves fan not wanting to change their colors. Obviously as a a non-Braves fan I don’t have nearly the same attachment.

                          Those are nice. My favorites are the early 80s uniforms. But the reason I like both the 70s and the early 80s ones are because they had the bright blue and red colors and I thought they popped and stood out more. I've never been a major fan of the dark navy because its such a dark color that sometimes it looks black. Same goes for the Yankees. I can remember being a kid and thinking that the Yankees were black and then when I realized they were blue I was blown away.

                            I know the 70s throwback they wore this past season was a huge hit and well received, so hoping maybe down the line it will be a consideration. Kind of like how Toronto went back to there old ones.

                              The Indians used light navy for a few years before switching back to the darker shade. Makes for a good comparison:


                              I had no idea about that.


                              Speaking of which, I really hate that the Indians got rid of these jerseys. All they had to do was remove Chief Wahoo. The block letter C and block letter Cleveland is just so boring.
