Today we hear from Dan…
Be nice if the team put some thought into redesigning their Spanish alternate uniforms.
I realize that “Los Mets” is the literal translation of the team name, but those jerseys look like an uninspired knockoff of what they usually wear. I love what the Giants and Brewers do with their Gigantes and Cerveceros jerseys – clear representations of the original brand, but with their own distinctive identity. I don’t see why the Mets can’t do something similar, especially since “Mets” is something of a fabricated word to begin with.
Just seems like there’s a lot of creative potential out there not being tapped: Mundanos, Urbanitas, Metros… you get the idea.
Dig the blog, and really dig this ideas thread – hope the brass are paying attention.
Thanks,
Dan
Thank you Dan. I am a stickler that the name of the team is Mets not Metropolitans as Keith Hernandez likes to slip in at like 7:13 every night.
My proposed solution is that NUEVA YORK might look really cool. So you wear the city name at home one time. The world won’t end.
It also seems the Los Mets jersey has become the “float a new design” template. That’s neither good nor bad, just interesting. I like the orange that Murph is wearing.
