Pretty cool. I liked those jerseys, and the older orange and blue SD cap. If they’re gonna wear navy at least accent it with orange. Otherwise just go back to yellow and brown. Everybody pretty much wants that, including myself as a diehard Giants fan.

The Padres need to go back to these home uniforms for the 2013 season and ditch the current ones they have on now.

Look at the post that you made announcing that the padres would wear these uniforms… Tony Gwynn’s jersey seems to have the pinstripes spaced as far apart as the ones they wore the other day. Padres must have changed the spacing at some point while they were wearing those

Good effort, but blue and orange is not as strong as brown and orange, both capwise and regarding the pinstripes and lettering. in my opinion.

They should have turned back more. The brown and yellow are iconic and look much better than that one.

And also, the Friar would look great on the sleeve.

No, no! The pinstripes actually looked great with this team brown or midnight blue. I know they’re midnight blue, but if look closely, it looks like there’s a hint of brown in there. Mixing a little more brown with this midnight blue and outlining the white S and orange D with a tab or sand outline would be about as unique as the original brown, orange and gold itself. In fact, they’d probably be the only California based team right now to wear pinstripes if the Padres bought them back.

Really wasn’t a big fan of the cap they wore back then, but it’s really not a bad overall look. The pinstripes are a major turn off though.
