I have always thought that most of the TBTC uniforms made for teams for game use in the late 1990's and through the last few years have greatly missed the mark in replicating original design. The most obvious pain to me is the jerseys that have sleeves that go three quarters the way down the arm. However, much has been said on poor representation of the jerseys, so I thought I would comment on the game pants.
I recently picked up a pair of the 2002 Oakland A's TBTC game used pants, which were supposed to be modeled after the pants from the championship years of the early 1970s. I own a pair of 1975 actual game pants and thought it would be interesting to do a side by side comparison. How awful is the design of these Rawling's TBTCs? Probably one of the poorest representations of an actual period uniform. And although I don't own one, I do feel that the accompanying jerseys for these TBTCs were just as pitiful.
