For the Brewers city connect MKE, the lines made “45” and the jerseys where made during the brewers 45th season
Hey Brodie, just wanted to mention Re:Diamondbacks jerseys, they only used the 2-tone look for a handful of games in 2022. Outside of that, the pants they have paired with their city connect have matched the color of the tops.
They wore them with white pants when they debuted in 2021
But in 2022 they made them the same color as the jersey
36:10 Philly font is supposed to mimic the font from the Declaration.. decent idea but didn’t come out too good
Great catch- had no idea
did not know that! (it's not very close haha)
I'm graduating from college in 4 days with a degree in design (graphic design, etc.) and I definitely have a lot to say about these jerseys 😂
Same lol. With every jersey released, I could hear my professors roasting them in my head saying what could have been done better.
Dont even need a design degree to see that most of them suck
You should draw your version for each teams city connect. I’d be interested in seeing it.
For the Mets, The pants are white and the purple represents the Number 7 subway line which runs to Citi Field.
Cool.
The shape of the wording on the Cubs jersey matches the shape of the top of the red sign that’s out at the front above the main entrance of their stadium called the Marquee sign.
As a brewers fan I loved the Brew Crew design. Feels very Wisconsin and I think the MKE hat design should be the default honestly. You can tell it’s landed well too because they’ve used it in a lot of games
From Cincinnati here! The 'CINCY' across the front is apparently supposed to be a nod to an iconic illuminated 'CINCINNATI' sign we have here on the side of a large duke energy building downtown - and I must say it is very similar. As for the new 'C' on the hat and sleeve, supposedly Nike and the Reds were going for a modern take on the classic logo that has barely changed forever. Also on the hat, the red stripe you mentioned on the brim is paying homage to the design of the 1919-era cap's similar to what the Reds wore in the Field of Dreams game.
That's not the bridge people don't like taking from Tampa. That's the replacement bridge for the one that was hit by the barge in 1980. The skyway bridge.
Thanks for clarification. Now I remember the one they don’t like is a low rise
The bridge that connects St Pete to Tampa is the Howard Franklin, which is currently under construction to add a couple of lanes each way. The bridge in the "SkyRay" logo is the iconic Skyway bridge, which connects St Pete to the southern cities within the Tampa Bay region such as Bradenton and Sarasota.
You're having fun with this hmmm Brodie?...go for it -you so deserve it !
The Braves city connect really does remind me of the lowercase a Jersey we once had. I love their city connect
The White Sox "Southside" City connect Jersey is My Favorite.
I think the mariners should get all blue pants with the bill of the hat being blue
I like the Phillies the most. Love the blue. Love the gradient color scheme. They look high tech and modern, too. And that’s a nice contrast from their standard uniforms.
I'm weird. I'm actually fond of the Giants' creamsicle jerseys.
They grew on me. I hated them at first, but I get why they went with that design.
@brodiebrazil,
You're correct about the Rockies City Connect Uniform. It looks like the generic/common Colorado license plate.
I actually really like their connects but I do understand that outlook
For the Rockies: 5280 is feet in a mile, they are the mile high city, hence 5280.
oh yeah, got that part, I think the double diamonds meant something. that's the part I wasn't clear on
Every team in Denver has the 5280 on their uniforms, if you're unfamiliar with the city you might not know what that means
@@michaelleroy9281fr
@@brodiebrazil It's skiing term. A double black diamond sign means that the ski path ahead is expert-level and very difficult.
The connector in the MKE is the number 44.
I love Seattle’s in the abstract as a Mariners fan, the hat is the best CC cap alongside Philly.
However as a graphic designer, as a marketer, it is obvious from the vast majority of city connects that Nike designed them centrally instead of someone who actually understands the culture of each city or region.
A lot of them look like they Googled free fonts and slapped on either the city name or a nickname no one uses.
I think the new Phillies is the only one that’s actually a clear win for actually connecting to the city AND being a clear reflection of the team and it’s because they worked closely with the players, with the team. Baltimore and Seattle and Tampa Bay are solid to me but nothing special like the Phills.
The Braves is basically just a throwback, Atlanta has so much culture and their CC references next to none of it. I’m sure their fans like it but that’s because it’s just an alternate, it’s not a proper City Connect.
I really, really like the Rays City Connects. Kind of wish Brodie was more informed about the details in their uniforms! As a theme though, i think that would have benefited every team though!
There’s a skate culture in Tampa Bay, the texture is supposed to look like “grip tape”
I also really like them, but I think the timing was not to their benefit. It just blends in as another black & gray City Connect.
"I'm not going to give anything a letter grade" but I will title my video GRADING EVERY MLB CITY CONNECT JERSEY.
The Cubs City Connect hasn't been worn yet this season but last season they wore the WrigleyVille jersey every Friday home game
Not sure if it was mentioned by anyone in the comments already, but the Brewers City Connect hat, says both MKE and 414, which is our IATA and area code
Not sure if you were aware but the colors of the Phillies jerseys are a nod to the the flag, which is light blue and yellow.
Giants having the fog on the jersey to an orange pin stripe pants would have been interesting and tie in the bridges
Weirdly a lot of the stuff u liked I didn’t but the Padres, Rays, Nats, White Sox and marlins are amazing
Big braves fan. Love the city connect uniforms. Bought two different hats so far and the hank Aaron 715 shirt. Awesome uniforms
You said the reds should get away from red😂
For the sake of city connects… maybe. See Padres.
I like the dodgers city connect the new ones they always gets it right they have great designers ⭐⭐⭐🥇🥇😃😃💯🔥🔥🔥
Getting on the reds for using red?!?! Wow
i know i'm bad
@@brodiebrazil credit to you for being able to admit it haha.
He wants the reds to not have red? Brain isn’t braining
Brodie Brazil long form video?? Let's go!!
oh wait till later this week... hahaha
They should make a CC for the Expos. Best retro uni, already!
There haven't been an Expos in MLB since 2004 though, there's that living in the past thing again
@@michaelleroy9281 Geez. Lie down, man.
New Nats CC? They already announced 2024 is the last year they’re using their current CCs, no announced plans for a new one but I assume they’re making another like the Dodgers since the Nats were one of the originals also.
@@BendyDH To heck with the Nats! I'm talking about the real Montreal Expos! I bet a retro Expos CC would be a best seller.
I hear the Boston marathon is a blast
I love ours in Cleveland, only thing I would change is the front to The Land instead of CLE. The piping is cool because it's embroidered with the pattern on the front of the statues. The decision to go with cream instead of just white was great!
Pretty sure we didnt do it cause the Cavs have "The Land" for theirs
Dodgers missed an opportunity to have the dodger text like the Hollywood sign. That would have been nicer.
Giants should have used the same 'international orange' they used for the bridge.
Really like the Mets jersey, the White Sox and Astros ones are nice too.
As a Phillies fan, I am glad we only wear them on Friday nights. They would not look good in a day game.
The Pirates could use a white belt ...in my opinion
Bill Ankeny---- Like the CLE.
Absolutely love this video but safe to say you and I have very different opinions 😅
The Phillies jersey is blue and yellow to reflect the flag of Philadelphia. The flag of Philadelphia is the oldest city flag to have not changed at all since it was created. The reason for the blue and yellow is because Philadelphia was populated by people from Sweden. The font is supposed to represent using either a feather or metal tipped quill. Hence the sharp lines on the edges.
We are Unapologetically PHILLY!!
Hey Brodie the lettering is suppose to represent the way they formed their lettere during Declaration of Independence era. This is Jersey Ken right outside Philly. Take care.
Making a mockery of MLB uniforms.
I agree black pants don't look right on a baseball field. Only the Pirates can pull that off IMO.
Miami should make their City Connects their main jersey
ChiSox' City Connect is as good as Miami's
As a Marlins fan now, I love the CCs, too. I think everyone would like the team to revert to the teal with pinstripes at home as the regular uni.
Philly should have done a Kelly Green jersey as a non-football team
In Sacto, the A’s can be green and gold and have CV for Central Valley.
Pirates would be cooler if they wore the old Pillbox hats
As a Yankee fan, That Phillies hat is DOPE!
I'm from Cleveland and I agree it should just say Cleveland but i really like them. However in reference to the phillies jersey I cant stand gradient i think it looks ugly in most cases
I agree, Phillies CC is probably bottom 3 worst ones for me, aside from the hat being cool, the rest just looks hideous to me and it does not look like the Phillies at all either
Drawing a maple leaf is easy , inverted Capital T then two 45° lines a Capital M on the end of each line
I think the DBacks should’ve used something like the Yotes kachina
I wonder if they were worried about looking "Gay" or something but they should have had more cherry blossom Pink for the Nats, its basically nonexistant from afar.
The Dbacks have a pretty clean city connect
Tl:dr has some weird vendetta against black especially black pants. 😂
The Cardinals are releasing theirs on May 20th. Speculation is a red jersey, since they gave up their red spring training jersey for this, but no red pants since the owner thinks they would look like pajamas.
And now that it is out, it officially sucks
The Tampa Bay one is a nod to skater culture, with skateboard griptape texture. I think it might be one of the best ideas, but in a sea of black and gray City Connects, it quickly becomes a little bland.
11:43 The batter man logo would have worked or the one white sock logo would have worked on the cap.
I think the lettering and numbers should be glow in the dark on the CUBS CC uniforms. 🤔 🤣
Hey Brodie, regarding the Texas Rangers city connect jerseys and hat. 4-21 is the date in history that the team played their first game as the Texas Rangers.
The symbol on the sleeve of the jersey is the Peagle. It’s half panther, half eagle (a nod to the former Fort Worth Panthers and Dallas Eagles professional baseball teams that no longer exist). Also how the script and colors were decided. Those were nods to those two historical teams in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area.
And don't forget every Texan learns in school that April 21,1836 is the date of the Battle of San Jacinto, in which General Sam Houston won Texas Independence from Mexico...
The Boston’s team looks like soccer players
The Twins are coming June 14
I see we have some differing opinions, the White Sox and the new Rays jerseys are my favorites, I absolutely love the look of them. I’m also a sucker for red and black so the Reds CC is also up there for me.
The Giants is actually my least favorite, I think it’s just so boring and looks like a regular jersey they would go with if they rebranded, it just doesn’t pop at all for me.
Padres look cool put it feels more like a Miami jersey
I still love my Mariners one.. its simple but good.. many good ones but i love Seattle, and San Diego's feels more Miami then San Diego
I’ve been hearing that Toronto’s will be purple, idk how much I believe it though
I hate the three letter jerseys. Outside of the US no one gets it anyway. What does CLE, PGH, WSH mean? Maybe NYC is ok, but other than that?
5280 is not a mountain designation. It's the footage of a mile. Not to smart if you don't know that. As far as KC That IS baby blue, light blue or sky blue not royal blue. The all blue dodgers is royal blue
Imagine thinking the Texas and Tampa ones are bad
I'm not a fan of the airport letters on some of them.
Personally, the Rockies (with the white pants) & Nationals to me are my favorites
For me it's White Sox and the new Rays CC, Rockies an Nats are also good though, for some reason the more I see the Nats one though the less I like it, not really sure why, the grey just doesn't do it as much for me I think
“Sirventes” 1:23
How about a Sacramento A’s city connect? Since it is west Sac, they could tie the State Capitol to the Tower Bridge with the A’s logo. I guess you had to be there. But I just invented a nothing burger.
Baltimore CC uniforms look like softball unis 4:27
The Philly City Connect jerseys are not being well received here in Philadelphia.
The Angels are Herbie the Love Bug!...they really cool.
Just a way for Major League Baseball to get more money
Oakland having east bay would be dumb “The Town” would be better
I really don’t mean to sound like a miserable prick, but I think the city connects are a disaster. The Phillies’ city connects, that bluish greenish color, completely mis-matches with both the color of the seats and the color of the padded walls on the field. And then you have yellow mixed in. They’re just…gross. What a complete disaster on Nike’s part. Now, had the Phils done their 1938 wool yellow and blue unis, that’d be dope.
The A’s 👀
Of course everyone hates the Phillies one.
Keep on hating on the Rays keep it going
But the Yankees did the first few Players Weekend Jerseys way back when. If Nike is paying them to design a new jersey? Is tradition really stopping them versus the Almighty $$$$$?
The Rangers ones are good enough to be their every day uniform.. I don’t understand the affinity for the Nats jerseys. I think they’re super boring.
The Yankees should NOT be exempt. If all the others have to get one (minus the A’s), they should suffer with the rest of them.
Who thinks the Rockies city connects jerseys suck
👇
Team rays is best
To sum it all up... NIKE's City Connect uniforms are terrible and ugly, with a couple of "OK" creations.
And the "OK" creations resemble more of throwback concepts (e.g., Braves, Angels)
Nah man, there’s some really good ones.
I hope they get rid of city abbreviations and nicknames from city connect uniforms. I never liked it in NBA uniforms and it looks even worse on baseball jerseys.
Also I’m not a fan of dark colored pants on baseball uniforms either.
The Mets City Connect jerseys look like they belong to the Yankees.
None of these are above a C ... 90% are in the F tier.
Very first teams review and it shows you didnt really do any research
All teams that play in CC uniforms need to let the fans know in advance when games are played in these uniforms. Then, let fans exchange their tickets for games that are played in regular uniforms. Most fans hate CC uniforms and don't want to look at them for 3 hours. I don't even want to look at them on TV either, so I'll listen to a game on the radio instead.
If the yankees are so adamant about never participating in city connects because of "tradition" why wouid they just decide to pit the patch on the arm? I feel like they arent above city connects at all. Maybe they can even just use the little league world series winning teams jerseys since they have a little league ballpark?
I’m bias so my Mets have a good one although it’s not as good as the south side Sox
Dc nats or the Rockies ones. Those 3 are fire 🔥
Braves fan, mets are nice but they would be better w more purple
As a Royals fan, I couldn’t be happier with the way ours look. Also why do are the Dodgers so boring, like you’ve got LA, so much to work with. Why not make a jersey that says “HOLLYWOOD” with the block font from the sign and put like an old-fashioned movie camera on the side and do a pink star on the cap with the Dodgers D inside, maybe even some film reel looking stripe down the side of the pants. Come on cowards.
HOW IS THAT NOT READABLE😂😂😂😂
