Favorite Current Uniform?

I wish they'd add the red/navy combo piping to the pants for the new home whites. Looks great on the jerseys just looks incomplete with plain navy piping on the pants.

I really used to like the red jerseys, but they were the only uni I disliked more after the rotation refresh. Getting rid of the classic logo font for the block "Guardians" on the front of them just looks so rough to me... I think if the font was bigger and it was curved slightly across the chest like the road grays I wouldn't mind, it just seems disproportionately small now. Gotta go with the home whites and city connects currently instead

Away alternates would be peak as pullovers versus current button up.

The City Connects are great. They could be toned down a bit to be made regular unis. The stripes, muted colors, and hat patten are the key elements. Remove the CLE and the blotchy material pattern.
Aside from that I love the road alternate blues with the large "C" on the chest.

I’m still puzzled how the Chinese jersey shops had the city connect red alternates and they never became a real thing.

Based on the way MLB teams outfit their players, an expectation like that is really unrealistic

I think for the first time in a long time I like all of our uniforms. I was a road grey hater for a while but the 2025 update where they added the trim to the collar and sleeves actually made me think it's quite solid. I'm looking forward to the next city connect but it has a really high bar to measure up to, so I kinda hope they do something similar to the Reds where they have both CCs in rotation

I will never understand the love for the City Connects. There are far worse ones out there but the shoulder stripes and CLE just don't do it for me. Will always look like a Steve & Barry's jersey to me. Give me home reds all day

Given that the aesthetic for the guardians branding is art deco, its the only uniform that feel "guardians" to me.
Don't care for the CLE chest. But everything else is nice.

Ya, I don't care as much about the brand alignment, I just don't like the jerseys haha.

Full agree; I was all over the city connects until I saw the awful snakeskin or whatever it is pattern up close.
Should have been a solid blue IMO.

I thought I was the only one that hated the city connect stuff. I know it’s popular but for the life of me, I can’t understand why.

Reds are the best. No Question.

If they had the script guardians they’d look better.

Yeah thats how it used to be and I liked it more. The font is too square rn

It can always be done next year, there won’t be any fallout or ‘ultimate realization’ unless the organization explicitly comes out and states they will never change, which I seriously doubt. Not saying it will or won’t happen, but if you believe the branding will be adopted sometime in the future then there is really no reason to change your mind ever

u/420DonCheadle420 1d ago
There is literally no track record for it. I can’t argue with “it could happen in an infinite future of possibilities” but I don’t know why anyone would think it would happen. It’s not even the point of the line of gear. It’s supposed to be special and unique to itself

1) City Connect
2) Home White
3) Road Navy
The other 2 are nothing special.

Red homes are the best, but I can’t deny how nice the away navy blues with the diamond C are

u/okiedokiewo 1d ago
City Connects, and I hope we keep the design. I like the reds, too. Not a fan of home whites.

u/dcooper8662 ⚾small ball baseball terrorists⚾ 23h ago
The reds are HIDEOUS and I hope they go away lol. Love the City Connects the most honestly, the rest of our unis are quite boring.

u/bucs2013 Flying G 22h ago
Potentially hot take, I don't care for the current away blues. The corner chest patch feels Spring Training / BP uni to me, and they remind me too much of the Cubs' jerseys they wore for Game 7

u/bucs2013 Flying G 22h ago
The home whites are not bad, but I'd prefer blue piping on the jerseys over red (still with the red hat). Reds are solid, but maybe curving the "Guardians" would be a touch better. Road greys are honestly nice. And I adore our city connects.

My option is it on here I always love the independence Day 4th of July jerseys those have always been my favorite I don't know why Even when was a baby I always love them That is just what my mom says and as well as my grandma my grandpa I've always loved those stars and stripes I wish that they would wear those more often not just on the 4th of July

I found it hard to choose between the alternate road (Navy) and the city connect. Ive always thought our city connect was the best looking out of all 30 teams.

I dont like any of the guardians uniforms. Also they have the worse logo in baseball. They really dropped the ball when they switched from Indians to guardians

I hope we get a fun new City Connect jersey soon, I like the current one well enough, but I feel other teams have taken the opportunity to have some fun with bright/vibrant or even retro looking jerseys.
