This week the new 2012 BP jerseys came out for the All-Star game. Honestly, not that bad! As you know these uniforms need to incorpate motifs from the team that is hosting, which is usually an indicator of whether the uniforms will look nice or not. Luckily for us, the Royals have a nice uniform set and a nice color scheme, so personally before seeing the uniforms I had a lot of hope for what they would look like this year (especially with the quality All-Star patch that came out). Anyway here are the uniforms:
At first I wasn’t a fan of the grey outline for the National League uniforms, but then remembering that the National League is the road team, it seems like the grey outline is a clever touch!
Anway good use of the powerder blue vs the royal blue, the colors of the Royals in the banner across the front, the font of the royals and the inclusion of the star on the uniform with the “i”. That seems to be the tradition now to make the “i” have a star for the dot, if you recall the Diamondback’s All Star game uniforms. Keeping the star in color theme though works for this uniform (the Diamondbacks didn’t)
