MLB The Show Equipment Wishlist
 

Hey all,

I'm sure a number of us have realized that there are some obvious omissions from the equipment options throughout the game. This includes many options we previously had, currently have an option close to, and brands that have yet to be included so I figured it made sense to compile it all here.

Please comment with a brand, a specific equipment item, a version of the equipment, the way equipment is worn, or a new idea below.

Add a picture of a player or a few players who wear the equipment for reference.

I'll add it all to the OP to make it easiest to see for everyone.

Allow pitchers to wear compression sleeves.

Team Color Option For Gloves

• For example, Gerardo Parra wore an orange glove with the Giants early in the season. It's possible to replicate this in-game by picking specific colors, but having a team color option would make the process simpler. It would also help his glove adapt automatically to the colors of his new team if he's traded away or signs elsewhere as a free agent.

The ability to add chin guards to Minor League players' batting helmets

• As seen here. Pretty self-explanatory.

Not 100% sure if this falls under the "Equipment" label, but a dedicated template for pullover jerseys would be appreciated as well.

1.) With the catchers gear some of the color options are tied to the wrong piece of equipment. Example would be if you wanted blue leg guards outlined in red then you have to have red leg straps as well.

2.) Instead of having the team colors 1, 2 and 3 change colors on the items depending on the uniform configuration, give us the option for home, road and home / road alternate uniform configurations so I know exactly what it will look like as I'm editing items.


3.) COLOR CHANGEABLE CATCHERS HELMETS
Example, if I'm the Braves and I want to wear a hockey style helmet then it has to be red and with the traditional face mask the foam protector has to be red. I would like to be able to change that.

A recent trend is wearing the pants cuffed above the knee, rather than below. Started by Hunter Pence a few years ago but now several other players have begun to regularly wear their pants this way. For comparison here is a recent picture of Cameron Maybin wearing his pants above the knee while Judge and Gardner sport the usual below the knee look.
