No, I’m not talking about any alternate/throwback/special editions. I mean official uniform.

In my opinion:

No, you just think they’re incredible because they remind you of your childhood. If those uniforms never existed and the Pirates switched to them today, you’d be talking about how awful they look.

The shorts were just a one-time thing, but those awful collared jerseys were official.

Nope they’re awesome. Good colors, clean lines, traditional. You just hate the hat.

The colored pants are not my cup of tea, but the jerseys are fine and look clean. What makes those uniforms terrible are the hats, them being pinstripe and the shape of them. You are somewhat right in that people say they're awesome now because of nostalgia and them being so bad they're good. A lot of ugly uniforms from years past are now viewed as cool because retro is "in" right now.

For those who disagree with me, please point out what specifically you like about the Pirates uniforms.

The hat: The stripes on the hat are awful. The black one I can let slide but the yellow hat is so ugly I want to go blind

The shirt: I actually don’t mind the white and black shirts in terms of the color, but the stripes are so awful.

The pants: By far the worst part of the uniform. First of all the stripe down the side makes them look like sweatpants. And the waist stripe is the worst part. It makes professional athletes look like dumpy couch potatoes.

There’s nothing actually good about these uniforms. It’s just nostalgia.

Those Rays uniforms are great.



I doubt these were ever consistently used but These have always cracked me up.

As far as Louisiana teams go, I hated the Hornets pinstriped jerseys. Maybe just because the teams were so bad.

From about 15 years ago when Affliction and shite like that was popular. The team owner was the head of Rock Revival Jeans.

The home white is ok, the away would be better if it was gray instead of whatever shade of blue that is. The rainbow in the writing is just gay.

in fairness, most MLB teams had those elastic striped waistbands in that era. That was more a trend of the era than the Pirates doing something uniquely awful.
