2011 Uniform Roundup, Volume 2
Here is the much-anticipated followup to my earlier uniform roundup post.
- Here’s a look at this year’s All-Star uniforms.
- As pointed out by the always on-time passerby, Orix is dusting off the old Kintetsu Buffaloes uniforms later this season.
- The Seibu Lions will be feature 1951 throwbacks, from the team’s Nishitetsu era.
- Lotte is going with mid-90’s throwbacks, featuring the old CLM logo.
- I don’t know if these are alternates or what, but Rakuten recently wore uniforms that were unfamiliar to me. They are different from the 1980’s Astros knock-offs that they wore in interleague play, but do feature that rainbow motif.
- Softbank is wearing baby blue alternative uniforms this year (seen here game action). Maybe it’s because I’m a San Jose Sharks fan, but these have grown on me. I’ve said this before, but I’ll say it again: Softbank needs to revive these helmets.
- Yokohama will be wearing these “Summer Uniforms” until the end of August.
