What do you think about them?
Meh
Yeah there Okay
there terrible cheap
Honestly for what they charge for on field jerseys they are horrible an cheap.
Absolutely hideous.
I miss Majestic so much
I'm old enough to have a couple of vintage Wilson jerseys... absolutely superior.
I have a lot of Majestic authentic on field player jerseys, about 15 to 20, and 3 Rawlings authentic on field jerseys. Pujols 06 WS & inaugural pateches, Howard, Ichiro, Jeter inaugural and WS patches, Mauer, etc... Never bought any of the Nikes as they were way to overpriced.
These 2024 jerseys look likee ay knock offs, soo bad...
I loved the Majestic jerseys. They were top notch. Even the thermal undershirts Majestic made were comfortable, warm and they just last. I’ve got a Majestic Tigers jersey and thermal undershirt from when I went to a 2006 World Series Tigers home game. The jersey only gets worn when I go to a game, but the thermal shirt even after almost 18 years gets worn a lot in the fall and winter and it’s still almost damn near perfect.
I can’t see anything from Fanatics holding up or lasting that long from regular use. They cut so many corners with manufacturing and materials and sell it for way more than it’s even remotely worth. Their hats, shirts, hoodies and jerseys are garbage. Their hoodies barely last a year without shrinking, threads coming loose, wordmark and logo stitching that warps and looks cheap, and forget about the screen printed garbage they make.
100% You and me both. I don't own a Nike baseball jersey, and I sure will not start buying them now with this disgusting low quality overpriced trash.
These new jerseys have printed lettering and numbers. I was going to buy a jersey at the last braves game I went to and passed on it because it looks like it won't last. I can see the lettering peeling off after some time. Those old majestic jerseys still look brand new after decades because everything is cotton and swen on.
Fanatics is a case study in why monopolization is bad for consumers.
Monopolies run counter to capitalism. That is why anti-trust laws were created. To keep a free flow of new ideas and to allow for choice to occur. Right now, Fanatics runs everything - baseball cards, jerseys, etc. No one is there to give a viable alternative and say that they have a different or better idea. It is Fanatics or nothing.
Let the teams choose their supplier. It used to be a thing in the NFL before their first exclusive deal with Rebook. Outside the US, teams choosing their jersey brand remains a thing in soccer.
Seriously, they make hockey gear and the the sizing is bizarre and the quality very cheap.
Why have mlb jersey designs have gotten worse over time? Like the Rays and the D-Backs used to have beautiful jerseys and hat logos, but now they’re muted and dark in color. The Guardians have some of the worst jerseys in baseball they are so bland and uninspired. There needs to be a return to color.
Better than the “majestic” Brewers jerseys
If I had to take a cynical guess, Nike is making it easier and cheaper to produce them by simplifying designs.
@@AmtrakCSXFan457 i'll give you that one. that look was heinous. felt like it was them trying to get away from just stealing The Pilots colors tho.
The Guardians need to return to being the Indians. 😅
@@battle4truth701 that’s a terrible idea braves is easy to just make brave but Indians you can’t make actually Indian without being insensitive they just should rebrand completely
I miss the Majestic gear.
minnesota's new flag sucks
Facts
The difference in font size ratio between the numbers and names really bugs me.
At least they didn’t go as small as the Nevada Wolfpack football team jerseys. I don’t know why they even put the names on them they are so small. Those are adidas tho.
That’s what bugs me the most. I was watching the NBA All Star game and it seems like they copied the name/number template for the MLB jerseys.
“I don’t play games” is crazy 😂
I spat my coffee, lmao
Some brutal honesty here😂
he ain't playing no games
I feel some comfort in knowing Nike isn’t just terrible with NBA jerseys they just suck in general😭
Yeah, they’re trying to monopolize the entire sports jersey industry
Crazy how a multi billion dollar company put a stamp of approval for jerseys used by the highest elite level multi billion dollar company that have the same quality as those that you’d see on Temu
It's all about the $$$
Don’t buy em!
So these new jerseys aren’t even Nike jerseys, they’re Fanatics jerseys that allow Nike to put their logo on their jerseys. Fanatics is a horrible company who cheap out on everything they put out.
Agree 100%
I miss the days of majestic. Authentics were expensive but worth the quality you were getting. Nowadays the authentic quality control is just awful but even more expensive. And this goes for the same with every other league.
Important thing to point out is that the jerseys weren't actually made by Nike. They were made by Fanatics but licensed by Nike. So basically Fanatics did the labor while Nike gave it their stamp of approval.
No wonder they are so bad.
True and it stinks 🤦♂️ they need to go back to Majestic
Fanatics is such a shit brand, guess even nike is having trouble with this inflation
Wow that explains a lot. I bought a shirt from them and it didn’t last a month
Fanatics is the worst thing to happen to sports apparel. Every design they make is shit, the quality is shit, fanatics is just shit. Once the NHL switched from ADIDAS to fanatics, I stopped buying apparel (besides authentic jerseys.) So dumb that leagues are going with them.
It’s all Nike endorsed athletes saying all of these reviews.
spewing straight BS
new one looks like something made from a 3rd party vendor that you get a flea Market
This year the stadium giveaway jerseys will look better than the game jerseys.
This reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where George suggest the Yankees change the fabric to cotton because the teams will be a few degrees cooler but backfires when they shrink with disastrous results.
"Wade Boggs just split his pants!"
"Their running like penguins, forget this game"
I'm sure you modern age baseball fans prefer the all star teams wearing the same jersey but I preferred it far more when they wore their teams jersey. I liked that you knew who they represented and as a fan I loved seeing my favorite teams players on the field representing my team.
Same, also colour is appealing especially if there's many different ones (not too many)
I’m definitely not wasting my $ on low budget material
That’s the thing, it’s not a low budget material at all. It’s actually way more functional and better for the players in terms of function. The problem is, it just LOOKS cheaper.
@@stevencramsie9172 Its funny you believe in all the bs "technology" they claim go into making these. In what world, do you think they are using more expensive material when they look and feel like shit? Every badge and number is heat pressed vs the prior jersey stitching we/players are used to?
MLB/Nike/Fanatics found a way, where they can make these for cheaper and still charge fans even more to make larger profit margins. Rave about "VAPOR PREMIER CHASSIS" (whatever the fuck that means) and they thought we would line up to pay 400 dollars for it. Manfred, Nike and Fanatics suck.
The Anthony Rendon quote "Don't worry I don't play games" made me cry of laughter. Brilliant! 😂😂😂
Recycled material but selling the jersey at brand new prices lol swear shop labor
It's harder to recycle material and recycled doesn't mean less quality either. You may recycle your old gym shoes to your little brother bad that's not remotely the same thing.
Unnatural material bad for the skin. Cheap crap made by cheap labour and over charged.
I understand changing the material and perforating the numbers to help them "breathe" but I think a lot of people hate them because they changed the font, colors, shrunk the letters, numbers and moved everything around how does that help the performance 🤷♂️ they just ruined the classic aesthetics that everyone loved
Bring back Majestic!
Idk why people people are surprised that Nike is similar to a cheap Chinese knock off when… that’s essentially what it is, that’s where the majority of their stuff is made, often with the same suppliers and tools. Nike is simply a BRAND and status symbol which is how they are so profitable and haven’t been associated with actual quality in many decades.
No wonder they didnt want us seeing the team jerseys at the all star game
I don't understand why the MLB logo needs to be lowered? It was fine where it was at. The players named so low and smaller is also a terrible change, The kid in the upper deck wants to be able to read which player is which.
Nfl: 1st time?
Some of the designs that Nike came up with for NFL teams have sucked, but the material and quality has always been good.
I just got a Mets Cooperstown jersey and it came with the blue of the collar bleeding all over the white textile. Hugely disappointed
Like Paul Lukas at Uni-Watch said: "How many of these players singing the praises of these new jerseys have Nike endorsements?" A lot if not all of them. Find a plyer to say something good about the new uniforms that's not endorsed by Nike.
They (Nike) had FOUR YEARS to get this right (they have been using the Majestic template and slapping their Swoosh on it for the last 4 years). This is embarrassing.
I wish that equipment procurement wasn't done through the MLB.
It would be so much better for the MLB to set minimum equipment standards and then have the owners go out and strike individual contracts with the companies that suit them best.
The Anthony Rendon card is incredible
the players saying good things have personal deals with nike already. you think they are going to be honest. no way,lol
I'm so blessed to have a 25 Russell Athletics jersey that was handed down to me by my brothers (it was originally a Jason Giambi Jersey and due to there being no name on the back it is now Gleyber Torres.) I was also gifted a Judge jersey shortly before this rebrand.
HATED when Fanatics took over MLB merch. Their sizing SUCKS, their material is CHEAP and now this!!!!
the hollywood lifestyle rendon card is hilarious 😄 ‘I don’t play games’ 😅😅 where did u get it ?
I literally have a 4 year old rip off jersey I got when mookie first became a dodger, the nike jerseys were still new so I’m assuming the china shops didn’t have enough details yet, but In a surprise twist of fate my ripoff now looks like the new authentics 😂 down to the tee everything matches up, the oversized numbers, curved name. It’s kinda weird but hey I can rock my fake comfortably now 💀
@anonymousdbag
Psssh. You looked like a dbag then. You'll look like a dbag now. With your dbag friends. Dbag. Psssh.
Yep I Been saying they look fake because of the the mlb logo on the back Is lowered it does feel conformable tho. That's the only problem I have with them just got a yordaddy jersey the other day pretty cool
I stopped buying from Fanatics. Their products are not up to standards.
I read that Fanatics made the jerseys and Nike just licensed their slave labor swoosh.
All of those companies use labor in other countries to save money. It’s not unique to Nike
It seems like all the defense that Nike/Fanatics are trying mount through player endorsements are aimed at combatting the backlash about the "cheapness" of the material and construction, but none of them seem to address the backlash about the overall design (appearance, placement of things, size of things, arc of the text, use of space). I guess they don't have enough of a comeback for that aspect. We can probably fault Nike for the design/appearance, and Fanatics for the construction, but probably both of them for deciding upon the materials and whatever other cost-cutting measures they're trying to spin as eco-friendly and player-performance-friendly choices.
Nike chooses the lowest bidding vendor that meets their ESG requirements. Thus Fanatics enters the arena.
George Constanza made them out of cotton.
Was going to say this. Regular peele having an opinion is like George's idea. They don't have a clue.
We’ll, it’s a natural fiber
I don’t think anybody really gives a shit about Heyward or what he has to say. Dude lost the little credibility he might have had over the all star game location thing
Nice! We have the NFL embracing a custom handmade jacket made by a players wife and the MLB does this! Pretty common W for the MLB 😂
Doesn't the NFL use these same jersey's on the field?
If you disagree talk to Fanatics
Thank Fanatics. They made cheap quality products the merchandise standard in sports.
I wish Majestic would come back. I hate that Under Armor backed out. I hate the swoosh on the chest, it’s just ugly!
Important update! The jerseys aren't even the worst part of the uniform!
We've seen the pants now, and OH BOY, the pants are a whole dimension worse!
It's funny because there are some players talking up the new threads but if you look most of those players are Nike athletes signed under the banner, lol. Coincidence? I think not. Let's be honest even they know it's shitty but can't say it. That must suck. Bought yes men.
Jason, blink twice if they have a gun
NHL jerseys have the same issue. My Atlanta thrashers CCM jersey from the mid 2000s was very heavy duty, now they just feel like slightly heavier long sleeve T-shirt’s
They should have never gotten rid of Majestic uniform tops and pants
I just think ots weord for the jerseys to have the harsh curve to the player names regardless of the length of the name. The fact that Hyun Jin Ryu is going to have a rainbow shape to his last name is absurd.
They look like cheap sports jerseys, sold at regular prices.
MLB jerseys were always heavy cloth and thicker.
They might be nice for the athletes, but they are a bad deal for the fans.
yea even if this is what the actual players are wearing i'm not ever going to buy it , it looks more like a tshirt than a jersey ...
good thing is most teams never change their look so yea i'll have to pay more to get the older better ones but there'll always be plenty of good 2nd hand jerseys to buy online
Players should wear their team uniforms in the All Star game. I don't like what Nike has been doing. Hate the swoosh in the front of the jersey.
They look cheap as hell
Nike is cutting $2 billion in costs over the next three years. This is going to be happening with everything they touch. If thought their quality was bad before its only going to get worse.
Where's George Costanza when we need him?
Bring back Majestic. Nike jersey are too expensive.
Interesting. In soccer the authentic jerseys are super light and breathable, with perforations along the sides of the jerseys to allow for sweat dissipation. And they’re sold at significantly higher price than the replica which is considered the fan version. However the replica jersey in soccer is actually thicker and heavier than the authentic version and is a much better value. It’s designed to be worn and withstand every day wear and tear. However, many fans still opt for the much more expensive authentic even though it’s a lighter build. This might be the way these MLB jerseys are going on the field, except off the field it doesn’t sound like fans are getting something made for them.
The Trout and Rendon Valentines are fantastic
Got those jerseys off Temu
Majestic would never
Bring Back Majestic, Nike is doing a bad job with jerseys all around. It’s no coincidence that Adidas jerseys during the Fifa world cup were named the best while the Nike ones were named mediocre
Nike paid $1 billion for the rights to these jerseys, so they’re not giving that up
I feel like the lighter the Jersey, the cheaper it looks, the worse it looks but the better the performance. Look at men's cross country, I actually ran back in high school and we wore these short as hell shorts that people's underwear hung out of basically due to them being lighter and improving running times slightly. I think they are great for players performance, and they should and probably will be kept around, I just hope team stores still sell thicker heavy duty jerseys for fans, so they don't wear out quickly
How does the second most-wealthiest league in America drop the ball this hard? 🤨
Two words, one name … *Rob 🤬 Manfred.* That’s the *bleep* how.
Version 2.0: Muscle sleeveless shirts with player nicknames on the back. Shorts with knee-high white socks. Stove pipe hats and high top cleats.
It's a golf shirt
No wonder Mike Trout likes them.
I’m a big guy and Baseball Jerseys are something big people can wear comfortably. But the new ones are probably more snug fitting from the looks of them
People aren't just mad because of it being different or changed, but because they're literally worse in almost every way possible (except maybe for the new fabric). Take the dodgers for example, like someone literally had to think "how can we make this look worse?" and deliberately shrunk the text logo so now it's broken up right across the seam. Who thought it was a good idea to move the MLB logo down another couple inches and to shrink the players names so that it will be barely visible on the field? Nike tried to even get the chain-stitching removed from the cardinals logo, but failed due to the pushback from the club. I hope the Phillies are able to keep their chain-stitching, because it has been an iconic look on their jerseys for decades, and separates the higher quality on-field jerseys from all the tackle-twill replicas. Nike really screwed this up big time, and don't be fooled this was purely done as a way to save money and cost on manufacturing. If they actually cared, they would have gotten multiple players inputs (and fans too) for multiple designs and prototypes before settling on a final product, and not delivering something that they should be embarrassed of.
Not a fan of the look, but I'm a sweaty bastard so if they are more comfortable, lighter and cooler then why not. Comfort is always more important than looks.
If you’re comfortable with your jersey lasting maybe a few weeks or so before it starts wearing out then sure have it at
@@SPCHouston4568 These guys aren't paying for any of it and make millions. I'm sure many do not care.
Let‘s not forget: those are de-facto Fanatics jerseys badged as Nike. I miss the old Majestic ones.
I am a Cub fan, and I agree with Mikolas. The Birds on Bat is ruined....
I haven't seen them up close, so I won't say 100% either way, but some classic things need to just stay the same. Then again, I hate the city connect nonsense too, and I hope those leave forever.
Heyward's claim just sounds bizarre "more authentic"...really....
My St Louis Cardinals jerseys make me want to cry! 😭😭😭
So does your team.
😆
@@TheBatugan77 NOPE! I think you have me mistaken for a Cubs fan! The new uniforms on the other hand look like shit.
The first time i saw the smaller letters of the new authentic Arenado jersey, i thought it was a fake
Dear Nike. This may be news to you but, players sweat no matter what you put on them. It is unnecessary to reinvent the wheel to make them 28% quicker to dry. Not one player will notice the difference in the moisture but, they will notice the garbage look.
Sustainability=Cost cutting. They're trying to make the jerseys cheaper to make, and more expensive to buy. What a scam!
That’s fine if they like them and are comfortable. But just keep the betters bigger and not curved it looks bad
Looks cheap, probably made some executives some extra bucks
I love how every player who put out statements on how great the jerseys are- are sponsored by Nike lol Acuna is the new face of Nike. Jansen has a deal with fanatics. Trout and Heyward are also sponsored by Nike. I'm sure they are giving their honest opinions on the jerseys and weren't just contacted by Nike/fanatics to put out some PR videos. 🤔
and for the love of God, can we get the replica jerseys to actually include sleeve patches and numbers on the front (as applicable). Why are fans being forced to chose between a painfully expensive authentic jersey or a jersey which omits these key items?
You answered your own question sadly
you're not getting a 1:1 for half the price, sorry to break it to you bro
Why can't Nike continue to use Majestic materials and put a swoosh on it like they have done for the past 4 years???
Its like when Wal-Mart started changing all their cargo pants to that stretch-fit material. It was just code for cheap shit. I bet players are going to go through more jerseys after dives and slides. We'll see though😂
All Walmart clothing is cheap. You need to go to an actual clothing store and buy better stuff.
@@stevencramsie9172 I just go to Thrift stores now. Thanks for your epiphany.
Dude if you’re going to take jokes from twitter you have to start crediting people.
Buddys’ trying to make some few bucks here on yt 😂
Nike sponsored players advocating for these. The true baseball fan knows these are trash. DH Gate via Nike/Fanatics 💩.
So now baseball fans are fashionistas, lol.
When I was in the Army there were two different types of BDU - cold weather and summer. Cold weather were heavy cotton and summer were a much lighter fabric, almost paper like in comparison. Which was "nicer"? The cold weather. Which was more comforatable on a summer day in Texas? The summer.
Maybe baseball fans need a fashion idol the way the NFL has a music idol in Taylor Swift.
They're really bad. My biggest complaint is the patch. They have a flat heat applied twill logo, the stitched ones are way cooler looking and way better. The patch is usually my favorite part of the jersey.
It’s obvious that Fanatics/Nike is using the name arches from NBA jerseys for these new MLB jerseys. That arch is necessary for a tank top, but looks stupid on an MLB jersey with sleeves like in baseball.
Players have no choice but to like the jerseys. If they become critical of anything MLB does they get Bauered.
Hmmmm, Ryan Cuneo is sure funny saying he feels lighter which will help him runner faster while he's wearing 12 pounds of bling
Could the smaller letters on the back be accommodating to all the hyphenated last names and endless jr's, IIs, IIIs, they're anticipating? If that's the concern, just have numbers only on the backs.
Can’t wait for the pants review after what have seen from Twitter today
I stand corrected
Fanatics produce the Jerseys now, They bought a production deal from Nike, nike is licensing the swoosh to Fanatics and Fanatics are making them not Nike. plus, they 3 versions of the jersey they make now are the game day version, known as the replica is now screen printed, and the limited is like the replica from last year but with all the markings Heat pressed with fake stitching.The authentic stitched is using smaller names and numbers this year as well. ever since nike got the contract to make the Jerseys from MLB, they were using the same materiel and template as majestic, but now this is there new template and they outsourced production to Fanatics who's quality is questionable at best. This sucks for jersey collectors. Best bet if you like authentic jerseys is try to buy game used ones from the team store or stadium. they will be last years kit but built way better. I wish I woulda got a Ohtani dodger jersey before they changed it. all the people who ordered one when he signed got last years model but once the restock is back it will be the 2024 version.
Thanks to fanatics/ Nike producing this mess probably through DH gate factory contracts. The colors will fade after 2 washes, and the letters and numbers will fall apart after 5.
Hate fanatics.
Majestic were the days
I do actually get the appeal for players to have a lightweight jersey that’s more like a normal T shirt, but fans want a durable “weighty” shirt because they’re spending a crap ton of money on these things. So either continue selling the older style thicker jerseys for fans or make the jerseys cheaper, as they’re almost certainly cheaper to manufacture. We all know that’s not happening though.
Majestic made the best jerseys and gear. It felt and looked top notch. The Nike stuff, I’m shocked to say, isn’t the same quality.
I guess it's a good thing I got my rangers jersey when I did early last season.
Fanatics is doing the NHL jerseys next season too. I'm 100% expecting to see some fall apart during fights.
I think a jersey that fans are gonna love aren’t actually the best to play in. Like that blue jays video compared the blue jay and how it’s multi-layered embroidered and thick and nice in the older jerseys. Where the new ones are flat. I don’t necessarily think a large thick embroidered patch is best to play with, but makes a nice fashion jersey
I love Acuña but praising a jersey when you wear 14 gold chains is wild 😂
the mlb logo on the back dropping down killed it for me
Polyester has to wick moisture fast because the material makes you sweat it’s such a crappy feeling on the body. I’ll stick to cotton
Wait, is it a lo-fi Republic Commando theme I am hearing in the background? 😄
