The first thing I noticed when I saw them was that Yasmany Tomas off season conditioning program not going too well......looks even fatter. Check out the pick on AZ Snakepit with side view. here

I will wait to see these on the field for my final decision but I think some of you are being to hard on these. They are not that bad at first look.

I saw a tweet from Hudson that basically said at first, he didn't like them, but after seeing them on players and more often he likes them now.

That's because he probably got a memo saying to love to costumes, i mean uniforms, or shut the hell up.

Just imagine how unwatchable this season will be. New uniforms + Greinke = Berthiaume not shutting the hell up all season long.

wow..thats your version of unwatchable ?

Winning games and making the playoffs would be watchable for me if they wore clown uniforms and the games were announced by Gilbert Godfried

There's always a mute button to solve the Berthiaume problem.

Hard to do the same with the uniforms though.

However - winning cures a lot of ills.

Yeah, I already mute Todd Walsh. There were games where I definitely muted the booth (the game where Bert stalked those sorotiy girls for an hour, for one...)

Make it Gilbert Godfried reading 50 Shades of Gray and you have a winner.

Duke Nukem however, makes 50 Shades entertaining. As entertaining as shitty Twilight fanfiction that had the names changed so it could be published could be anyway.

I have never understood why he is famous. I have never heard anything he is funny in. (If you counter with the ren and stimpy show or beavis and butthead... you need to take a long look at yourself). Is he funny for having an annoying voice? Then I can nominate one of my friends.

His version of "The Aristocrats" at Hugh Hefner's roast was unbelievable.

The only decent cap of the new set.

Definitely... can't even consider the high crown anymore.

My only complaint is I wish the low crown would downsize the bill proportionally as well. Smallest adjustment would make a world of difference. Takes a lot of extra time to get the curve down right since visually its a little oversized.

New Era makes a ladies version of caps with umpire sized brims. I don't understand the high crown hate though, they've been present in MLB for decades, it's been one of New Era's trademarks for a long time.

I dont think anyone is looking for that type of extreme downsizing...

Put a high crown and low crown next to each other... I believe they have the same size bill, which makes the bill look out of proportion on the low crown. Low crown bill needs a slight size tweak, probably less than 1/4" size adjustment smaller would put it back in proportion.

I just prefer the low crown now so I dont have to spend all the extra time getting the high crown "deflated" and form fitting like it should be. Do it wrong and you get the ridges up on the crown.

All of this only really matters if you wear hats the good, old fashioned way with a full curve... I like the ends of the bill to come over my temples. If you wear any sort of flat to semi flat bill, it probably doesnt matter much that the bill is oversized on the low crown.

That's because it's literally -- LITERALLY -- exactly the same hat as before, except the "sand" logo outline trim has been replaced by teal. I'm not paying $35 for that. I'll stick with my existing black 'A' cap.

I still can't believe how badly the Dbacks botched this uniform redesign.

It's also the only cap of the new set that will be USA made. The two fade caps are Chinese only, so that means poor quality polyester and funky shapes. Very lame design too, I can't believe they put the fade on the pants, totally looks like pajamas.
