City connect leak

[hawing]

The official photos look more palatable than the originally leaked photo at the start of this thread. The script looks closer to white than to yellow.  I do like the "base blue," the ball bobber and the Barrelman patch.

The hat logo absolutely sucks. The barrelman and the sunset state would have been a million times better.

If MLB wants to promote the sport through things of this nature, I'm fine with it. As I've seen the variety of City Connects across baseball, I think the Brewers could have done much, much worse.

Yeah, looking at the other CCs revealed today, I'll count my blessings.

I love the design of the bobber and barrel man too. Unfortunately they had to ruin it with everything else. I’m sure it’s some out of state out of touch design team. I’m 30 and I’ve never heard anyone call it Wisco. It sounds totally cringe.

Screw the bobber logo. Should have been an old fashioned with a ball as the cherry.

Honestly, should have just put Wisconsin across the front. 
 

Also, cheesehead for the hat.

My friend you would love the Beloit Supper Clubbers

I actually like the look. Nice and clean. Reminds me of a sunrise over Lake Michigan. 
 

For me it’s just Wisco that is annoying but I’ll let that slide since they will look good in these. 

[MilwaukeeBeers]

Anyone find a hat with only the bobber logo on it yet? That’s gonna rip this summer in Lakewood.

AI sure is fun!!!!

I'm just not seeing how Wisco connects to the city.

[SeaBass]

This is growing on me, better quality images definitely help. I like the colors, the pinks, yellows and oranges. Wisco is still and will always be odd but I think I can give it a pass. I'm choosing to not be bothered by it.

'Wisco' is a compromise from the use of 'Wisky' which never would've flown, not in this day & age. I too like the Barrelman shoulder logo.

Bottom line, I'm fine with the unis if they win in them, which is another way of saying I'm in my 60s.

It's the Brewers' feeble attempt to get more "up north" casual fans to purchase gear or go to games. They think that by putting "Wisco" on the jersey, it will cause fans across the state to want to buy it. I do not think this will lead to even one extra jersey sale from someone who doesn't normally buy jerseys, nor will it cause anyone to go to more games on Friday nights when they typically wear these.

Fixed

It's a state connect vs city connect

[MilwaukeeBeers]

I've grown indifferent on the Wisco portion of the uniforms it is what it is. It's not what anyone calls it but fine you win out of state design team. I still cannot stand the hats and that minimalist garbage "W" logo for them. They are charging $53 for that piece of crap.

You make a beautiful and unique rendition of a classic logo (that also has the state behind it... perfect for a hat) and relegate it to a shoulder patch. Then you make an incredibly unique and creative bobber/baseball and relegate it to the jock tag in small font. I just don't understand their design choices. The ingredients were there for something pretty cool. And now the only hat available to buy looks like absolute trash for an outrageous price.

I feel conflicted because I don’t like the choices that brought them to the color scheme and I don’t like Wisco but I feel like the jersey looks pretty good seeing the players wear it.

I do agree that the bobber logo should be on the hat just like how I thought the grill logo should have been the hat last go around.

like what has been said, they had all of the tools at their disposal for a great uniform (color set, theme), just blew it on the execution. 

[TURBO]

Not a fan of the wimpy looking rainbow colors around the lettering and the barrel man logo.

These are hideous.

 

[StearnsFTW]

Just awful.

[patrickgpe]

I did see some photos of merchandise at the team store on X. If you hate the jersey, there is a lot of cool tshirts and sweatshirts that feature the bobber and barrelman logos and say Brewers. 

[Team Canada]

I was going to say my first/only reference for Wisco in the real world was Wisconsin Lutheran, and sure enough they have a tweet out:

 

[OldSchoolSnapper]

I don't get upset about stuff like this, but there are so many cool things you could do I just don't understand how duds like this happen. There are so many things in MKE you could weave into a jersey; Harley, the old whale painting, German or Native heritage, homage to festivals, County Stadium, the old Braves team, etc., whatever. Just spitballing, but Wisco is so lame.
