Motor City Sonics Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 Tigers are looking into a third uniform option. What would you hope for. The 1968 Road Uniform? A button up version of the 1970s/80s pullover? A navy blue top with a white Olde English D? A grey version of the home uniform? What would you like to see? Quote

romad1 Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 Sunday home jerseys need to be the all whites. I do not see a scenario where I would prefer any other jersey to those. The Stars and hispanic heritage night jerseys are fine. If they want to expand that to include Polish-American jerseys or what not...fine. Quote
chasfh Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 It’s gonna be the navy blue, because people like colored jerseys, and then only the Yankees and Dodgers will left to stand against it. It’s a shame, but what’re you gonna do. Quote

Several teams rolled out “City Connect” uniforms this year. I wonder if this 3rd uniform is for this purpose? Quote

There are enough special uniforms and hats they wear during the year so do they really need another? I vote no and could get rid of the special ones too except for Jackie Robinson day when they are all 42. Quote
Useful Idiot Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 I thought they already picked "vanity" uniforms? Quote
CaliforniaDreaming Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 I love the Detroit Stars uniforms. Just wear those more often and I'd be happy with that. Quote

Useful Idiot Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 Well, it was intended as satire. I think the "push" for a 3rd uniform is silly to begin with. And I SURE don't want the the 70's and 80's era roadies to make a return. I think the white sox look like a circus with their Standard issue, their Pajama retros, and their "Thug" blacks, and I guess they even have more. I say spend the money on talent, not fool-azz showmanship If The Tigers were dead set on jumping into the latest fad, I'd prefer something like the A's had in the 70's with their sleeveless vests and contrasting undershirt...but not in those colors, of course. We'd have to have colors that were more with our own tradition...just my 2 cents Quote
John_Brian_K Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 I wanna see the meth tiger...does not matter how, but that would be cool. Quote
MichiganCardinal Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 Put the 1980s throwback uniforms into regular rotation. Similar to the modern day Astros uniforms. 2 Quote
mtutiger Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 I'd be OK with an occasional road alternative (either based on 1984 or the 60s). But they had better not mess with the home unis any more than they did a couple of years ago. Quote
chasfh Posted October 9, 2021 Posted October 9, 2021 I would like the D on both caps to return to their previous smaller size. Quote

Although, to be honest, I don't like the navy blue accent along the the buttons & collar on the Stars jersey. Quote

holygoat Posted October 9, 2021 Posted October 9, 2021 Either the 60s or late 80s road unis would be fine by me. 1 Quote
KL2 Posted October 9, 2021 Posted October 9, 2021 A version of the spring training blue tops wouldn't be the worst thing. So long as its used about 10 games Quote

They made the D grotesquely big one season, then reduced it about 2/3 the way back the next. Not quite all the way back. Quote
HeyAbbott Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 With respect to a third uniform, I like the 1907 or 19117 with the blue colloar and the blue cap with the white piping. Here is the picture of the uni's: https://blog.heritagesportsart.com/2010/08/detroit-tigers-uniform-and-team-history.html Quote

The change of the D didn’t really bother me a couple years ago but the current one appears to be larger than the one prior to the change. Quote
