Thanks to a reader who saw our article earlier this week about Negro League throwback concepts, he sent me an email with a photo I had not seen. The photograph shows Candy Jim Taylor wearing a jersey with a big SL on the chest. Take a look below, click to enlarge. I couldn't find the … Continue reading St. Louis Stars Jersey discovery
As I was looking closely at some photography of the Cardinals new City Connect jerseys, I noticed the front numbers have little perforated dots in them. This wasn't a huge surprise to me, because Uni-Watch earlier this year published a story about how some teams have the perforated dots, and some don't. Obviously after seeing … Continue reading Perforated Numbers
Big thank you to Phil Hecken at Uni-Watch for cross posting this article. With the RICkW0OD Field game coming up this month, I wanted to envision some modern throwbacks that accurately reflect what the St. Louis Giants and St. Louis Stars actually wore. I've heard the Cardinals are slated to be the home team in … Continue reading Negro League Throwback Concepts
Yesterday the Cardinals, along with every team in MLB, wore patches on their chest for Lou Gehrig Day. This year the patch was a simple navy circle with a block font 4 inside. Check it out.

Yesterday June 1, 2024, after waiting two months, the Cardinals finally wore their Victory Blue Saturday road alternates. These uniforms are identical to the Saturday Home cream uniforms, except that they are blue. Both the cream and blue Saturday jerseys have the same sleeve extension things with the fake printed on sleeve piping. See images … Continue reading Cardinals Debut Road Alternates for 2024
This year the Whitey Herzog memorial patch being worn is not an embroidered/stitched patch, it's an iron piece of synthetic material. Each patch is supposed to be color coded to match the jersey fabric, but I've been noticing that the gray version on the road uniforms shows up a lot brighter and shinier than the … Continue reading Whitey Herzog Patch Gray Color

The patch is identical to previous seasons, but … Continue reading Cardinals Wear Patch for Memorial Day

The Cardinals officially unveiled their City Connects today Monday May 20, 2024, even though some of the promo photos were leaked late this past Friday evening May 17, 2024. When I first saw these uniforms, I let out a huge sigh of relief. I really thought it would be a lot worse. I was even … Continue reading Cardinals Unveil City Connect
I noticed something about the new Nike template jerseys this weekend, looking especially at the alternate uniforms that have piping on the sleeves. Compared to uniforms pre-2024, the sleeves of all uniforms were consistent, and had extra braid sewn onto the jersey as piping. But now, these alternate uniforms have these little sleeve extensions, and … Continue reading Nike’s Fake Sleeve Piping
Yesterday May 18, 2024, after waiting for over a month and a half, the Cardinals finally wore their Saturday alternate uniforms.
