"Kansas City" or "Royals"?

it seems like they where the traditional grey a lot less than most teams. maybe i’m wrong, but I tend to remember them wearing the blue jerseys on the road quite a bit.

The fewer number of letters fits better in a decent sized font on the jersey. And, quite frankly, I like the grays and maintaining some roots to the 19th century. Baseball is the only American sport with real history. Let’s embrace it. Attempts to be modern and flashy have usually failed in MLB history.

Gray is fine with me (The Royals should experiment with a blueish gray) and I’m indifferent to Royals vs Kansas City. Although if Kansas City I think they should use some cool script or font – not a modern but traditional style – like the Red or White Sox have used. The Royals have not experimented with pinstripes which I think could be cool if done subtly.

But, really, I’m not sure one could do better than this.

on road jerseys. Some idealistic notion that you are venturing into hostile territory while flying the flag for home maybe.

As for color, Gray is a little boring but i don’t really mind. The Royals wear blue a lot (which is awesome), so i guess i don’t get gray fatigue. As long as they don’t go down the pinstripe route, i’m happy.

I just think simple, classic designs and logos look great, and if you find a good logo and design, there is never any reason to change it (see Red Sox, Yankees, etc., and contrast with the Blue Jays…especially recently).

I love this version of the Monarchs:

Which the Royals have brought back (with some minor differences) at least once:

I agree with those who like having “Kansas City” or some other identifier of the city on the aways. I might be in the minority on this, but I’d love to see them take out the red, and make a gray version of those (with the standard Royal blue as the dominant color) as the away unis. They’d probably need to change the logo on the away caps and helmets, too.

Nice simple Royals across the chest. Best looking uni’s in MLB.

Retro. Classic. We need to bring back the powder blue pants though…

Bring back the PJ’s in powder blue with block “Kansas City.” It was good enough for Brett in the glory days. With “Le Expos” out of the league we’d have the only ones and generally the more 19th Century/Late 70’s Early 80’s we can get the better. We also think their should be a designated Potter/Split spectacles and sideburns player on each team

for real. We could use some only-time-we-weren’t-a-punchline nostalgia. Also, if you can look hardcore wearing powder blue, you ARE freaking hardcore.

Players should wear the short pants more often. I like the stirrups. The long pants don’t look like baseball. Some players that I really can’t stand wear short pants, and it’s enough to make me be quiet about them.

A link to basically the KC vs. Royals debate for each team.

I love city/school name on roadies, and nickname on home jersey. We got new basketball jerseys my senior year and I made our coach put “west” on our roads, and Jaguars on the homes.
