December 5, 200619 yr Being at the Redsfest and the unveiling, they were okay and plain. Nothing exciting like when the Bengals went to the stripes.
December 5, 200619 yr I also thought they were suppossed to have blue in them?????? It was originally reported that they would add blue, but according to Phil Castellini, that was just a rumor. Bob nixed the blue idea at the get-go and just wanted less black. I even recall Marty talking about the blue being added during one broadcast. However, I'm glad there is no blue. As for the lettering, it was designed by the MLB for the Reds. No other team in MLB baseball is allowed to use the lettering without consent from the Reds. They wanted to change the font of "Reds" in the "C", but it would have cost too much to change everything. I really like the simple, classy design of the home uni's.
January 15, 200719 yr I was checking out the site the other day and ran into news that they were getting new uniforms. The only problem I have is there are not cut offs any more.
January 16, 200719 yr Given, I'm not the most ardent Reds follower, but those jerseys don't look any different than those in the past.
January 16, 200719 yr Given, I'm not the most ardent Reds follower, but those jerseys don't look any different than those in the past. The letters and numbers are significantly different.
January 16, 200719 yr Given, I'm not the most ardent Reds follower, but those jerseys don't look any different than those in the past. They are different no majorally but there are changes.. The big change is the way their names are written. I just think its funny the had Todd Coffey as one of the guys in the fashsion show to show off the new uni's. :ylsuper:
January 16, 200719 yr I'm glad the black is gone, it was nice at first but everyone has black in their uniforms now. I like the new font.
January 16, 200719 yr I'm glad the black is gone, it was nice at first but everyone has black in their uniforms now. I like the new font.There's still black. I love the new uni's, the cutoffs were horrid.
January 16, 200719 yr The home and road uniforms look good. I don't care for the alternative uniforms.
January 16, 200719 yr The letters and numbers are significantly different. MLB created a special font just for the Reds...That's pretty cool. :thumb: I like the uniforms...I like bringing back the "running man" but I could do without the handlebar stache.
January 17, 200719 yr Thanks for the link GT:thumb: Nice looking uniform. Only thing I dislike is the black bill on the away cap. I agree. I did not like all the black in the uniforms at all. These new unis are far better. Thanks for the link GT!:thumb:
January 17, 200719 yr Nothing exciting like when the Bengals went to the stripes. I am thankful for that. I mean I don't mind the stripes on the helmets and on the shoulder as in the past. These new ones as of the last couple of years look absurd. More like kids pajama's than a football team. JMO
January 17, 200719 yr I like them alot also, the throw back red is pretty neat. :thumb: I agree, the red shouldn't be considered "throwback" though - the team is called the "Reds".
