MLB's new uniforms have sparked controversy among players and fans, with some criticizing the designs as shoddy and cheap, while others find them hilarious. Nike and Fanatics are facing backlash for the unpopular jersey designs, with the Kansas City Royals receiving a waiver to revert to regular-sized lettering on their jerseys. Despite the negative feedback, MLB teams have the option to revert to their old jerseys by annoying Nike and Fanatics.
Please, @Phillies...annoy away. The new looks are trash. https://t.co/SsO0Uq8rX7
Should MLB change the jerseys before the season starts?
It’s been 10 days since we started reporting about the many missteps in the Nike Vapor Premier rollout ... And the groans have only grown louder. Here’s what we know — and don’t — about MLB’s ongoing jersey issues ⤵️ https://t.co/DzThIABg7d
MLB teams can get their old jerseys back as long as they annoy Nike and Fanatics https://t.co/8B0noK9FkL
Nike and MLB’s new jerseys have been widely panned by fans and players, but the Kansas City Royals got a waiver to fix one of the most heavily criticized elements And it almost makes it more frustrating considering how easy Nike could have had it https://t.co/Sd2Arbpr0g
It seems that Fanatics was unfairly dragged for its role in MLB’s Pantsgate. It was, after all, Nike’s design that players and fans hate… @Ourand_Puck explores. https://t.co/Dr0NtKyvC4
If the name lettering is going to look so tacky on the new MLB uniforms, just take the names off. It would look better.
The Royals worked with MLB and Nike to maintain the regular-sized lettering on the back of their jerseys, per @UniWatch. Look how much better it looks… (Via @RoyalsDaily_) https://t.co/l6Np9nKS99
It’s absolutely nuts that MLB, Nike, and Fanatics imposed ugly-ass uniforms on everyone this year. Yet it may be even nuttier that they’re willing to let a team go back to a better looking jersey simply because they asked if they could. https://t.co/zX5k6eZXii
