Wanne Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I couldn't stand the purple crap. Not sure Eric Byrnes makes these look very good. I love this guy though...wish KW would have made a run for him last year. Check out his shoes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I don't like those uniforms one bit. Those look too much like Nationals uniforms, and both the phrase "D-backs" and the font they use are bad. Given the choice of those or last year's, I'd take last year's in a heartbeat.

nitetrain8601 Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I disagree. I think those are huuuuuuuuuuuge upgrades to what they used to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I liked the old ones better just for the fact that they were different. I agree that they are a rip of of Washingtons jersies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Stolen from the Nats...yes...better looking than the old uni's....yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanne Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 Like I said...having Eric Byrnes as your model does absolutely nothing for them. But the read unis are sharp. A HELL OF A LOT better than that friggin purple. Couldn't find any pictures of the road greys. The white ones are the worst of the bunch. Should have gone sleeveless for the whites. And last but not least...Chris Young donning the new uni.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 The colors look nice, if you take a look at their revamped site. I love the combo of red, black, and white; however, I think it's being used too much now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldmember Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 not a fan of the front font (they could at least get the a to line up) & the bright red--think it should have more brown or orange tone to it, more southwestern. but, overall i like the new unis. the db snakehead logo is pretty cool, too.

Keep the rest of them, though - like I read somewhere, it's like the Astros uniforms and Nationals uniforms had a baby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanOfCorn Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Black Alternate unis are the best. These things are cyclical...first it was teal, then purple, now red. But it should be more orange or brown, for the southwest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSoxfan1986 Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Those uniforms are awful, except the black one is decent. What I don't get is the DBacks haven't even been around for ten years and they are already changing their uniforms. I actually liked the old ones, even though they were purple.

shipps Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 The old uniforms were horrible,this jersey i would buy.Its kind of hard to be diffrent without having an ugly uniform when there is 30 teams.I mean how many color combinations could you have that are diffrent from each other yet still look good?

Reddy Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 i'm fine with the colors - whatever - but the DBACKS thing... makes them look severely Minor League... using a slang name on your Jersey? just not a big fan personally... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamTell Posted November 9, 2006 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I like the sleve db logo but other than that, I'm not a huge fan of it. I think the home uni's look ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 These look like a Houston retread. But the thing is that with that beautiful script, Houston is some road uni piping and a revert to the H-Star logo of the 70s and 80s instead of that weird cattle-brand thing away and classic block numerals away from being something really nice. Arizona still struggles with the logo identity crisis, using the A sometimes, the coiled-snake D, and hardly any use of what would look far better on a cap--the db sleeve logo. First of all, the coiled-snake D looks very minor-league. The DB sleeve logo is the strongest of the bunch, and the A looks like it should be a low-budget airline. Second, while the type is more authoritatively serpentine than the previous version which was a simple tweaking and serif-trimming of Friz Quadrata (shudder), D-Backs in print reminds me of what one of my former coworkers used to call people she didn't like--"D-Bag". I suppose if Bonds or Sheffield were wearing one, it'd fit a little better. Third, I'd hate the home unis a lot less if they had piping. Home whites look naked without piping or pinstriping and no number beneath the name. All in all, another uniform redo that would look better in the minors.

Kid Gleason Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 They look like they should be on a minor league team or a Japanese team. Also, "D-Backs"??? Are they slowly making to the move to "A's" territory where they will eventually just be the "D's"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
