Ranging from meh to WTF, but the throwback is nice.

Teal shoes... I didn't even notice that at first. Ugh.
The grays are my favorite, but that is like asking a fat kid what vegetable is his favorite.

Telling that the only thing he gives an 'A' to are the 2001 throwbacks. I think his assessment is mostly spot-on, if a little generous. But to be fair he is taking a more measured approach as a sports uniform conoisseur, while I'm a Dbacks superfan who probably cares a bit TOO much about this.

Subtle "snakeskin" should have been the way to go and really, subtle everything. A bit disappointing with the end result but I want to see them on the field as well. The gray unis are a bit interesting and they might have something to work with if they remove some of the added details and tweak them next year. Paul Lukas brings up a good point about gold being added somehow, it could actually work really well if kept at a minimum perhaps even replacing "sonoran sand" with gold. I was always a sucker for the copper in the old uniforms so having something iridescent again would be all right with me.
At first glance it's just too much all around but with enough tweaking the next few years and they might be okay. But just okay.

It appears I'll be in the minority here, but I don't hate them. My favorites are the two road charcoal uniforms, least favorite is the home white. It will be interesting to see what they look like once they are on the field playing the game.

I'm in an even bigger minority in that I could barely care less about the uniforms. I've never been much for fashion and it's at the bottom of the list of problems I have with the D-backs.

Yeah. These are easily the worst uniforms the Club has ever had and in the top-5 for worst in baseball history.

The number of uni combos has to be a record.

Not a fan, but I don't think I'm the target audience anyway. Neither is much of the board.
Hopefully the younger fans like them.

Pretty much exactly what I'd expect from a bunch of middle-aged dudes without taste trying to be hip.

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
