The Cubs City Connect jerseys are predictably dumb

[Andy]

 

The best I can say about these is that at least they aren't wildly different colors than the Cubs' usual colors.

[The_Achiever]

Mariners spring training vibe going on.

 

At least the patch is cool.

[UMFan83]

They look like a piece of unlicensed merchandise you would buy at Target or something. Awful and bland, easily the worst of the ones that have been released so far.

[cl smooth]

They horsefeathering suck

[We Got The Whole 9]

Traaaaaash

[Bertz]

I got my hopes up after seeing the Marlins ones. Oh well.

[Derwood]

Pro sports seem convinced that hiring designers who hate sports is a profitable move

[Proven Veteran]

Yikes. I really like the Marlins ones, but these definitely look like knock-off Mariners jerseys.

[Brian]

Can’t believe the same company makes these and the NBA city edition jerseys.

 

I might buy the hat if it’s the same as that patch though.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

I hope it’s not too confusing to see them all wear a #44 Rizzo shirt.

[Post Count Padder]

I kinda like the color scheme and the patch. That's about all I can say. Serious D3 college team/Walmart knock-off vibes here.

[Andy]

Here are the hats. They do not have the sleeve logo on them.

$60 for a hat?

My biggest takeaway too.

 

Maybe people are paying with crypto?

I'll wait until I can use a coupon at CVS, then just walk out of the store with it

[CoolHandLuke]

Make sure to wait until it's busy and they are understaffed, so it's not crime you are doing.

looks like the $60 is Aussie money, the screenshot is off the Australian New Era website

So ~$45 U.S.

[Brian]

they're up on New Era U.S. now, 40 fitted, 34 snapback, 32 stretch fit, so the normal event hat prices. There's a t-shirt that confirms the 'Wrigleyville' jersey leak, and a hoodie with the sleeve patch.

 

 

[Bertz]

I think I actually really like the hat? Too bad I look terrible in them.

[Brian]

I think they look better on the players in this video and the pictures than that leaked photo... but still could have been so much better.

[Brian]

they even made a shirt that's so much closer to hitting the mark

 

[CoolHandLuke]

Is there any significance to the "y" design on the patch?

 

Edit: did some very quick basic research and found out. I've never seen that logo or at least noticed enough to think about it before. For anyone like me that didn't know: https://www.geographicsociety.org/the-chicago-y/

Haha…Then, like a brave soul - you’ll pay a visit to a baseball message board and confess your sins to a bunch of blokes you don’t know.

[CoolHandLuke]

He wasn't confessing - he was looking for validation! If he framed it as an embarrassing moment of anger that led him to make a bad decision, and he knew he was in the wrong, he wouldn't have been ridiculed nearly so much.
