Fashionista Review: New Beaver Uniforms



I approve of the new Portland Beaver uniforms. Nice and clean. Classic look. Maybe a little baseball générique, but it works. The script lettering mimics the Padres lettering, but they've avoided using it in a logo, which keeps the thing from looking like a shampoo bottle. I also like the depiction of Lucky the Beaver. Timeless faux Disney look to the artwork. Familiar with all the right trimming without looking costumey. Very easy to fall into a high school production of Damn Yankees, but thankfully we're spared that! Fierce like a lion, but gentle like a lamb. That's the best way to describe a beaver and this uniform does just that.

I wish
that the Pads used powder/sky/whateveryouwanttocallalightshadeof blue on their uniforms instead of just in the logo.

i agree
that would stand out a lot more than the shade of navy blue they have.

I'm not a fan at all of the alt:

Crappy jersey, plus white hats are for rapist frat boys. That patch is nice, though.

WTF? Lucky Beavers???
bwahahahahahahahahahaha

I remember last year they were considering changing the name from Beavers to something else. They obviously changed their minds.

Besides, all dudes like beavers.

I like the ol' tried-and-true.
Besides, "Portland Boxes" just didn't sound right.
