Re: Mets to wear NY Giants Throwbacks
This is good news. Too bad I can't afford one right now. Hey,Wilpon's getting soft. No Dodger uniform?(that would be the final straw) From what I read they'll look somewhat like this:
I was rather hoping for this version:

Never mind,they're ugly and as "mandrake" mentioned on the thread -"The Mets are honoring the NY Giants 8/14-16' on Baseball-fever.com,leave it to the Mets to take a great idea and turn it to mush. The least attractive NY Giants uniforms was chosen :

Unbelievable that this version was chosen. I would have moved some items to pay for a jersey if only the version was those I've mention earlier.Comment

Re: Mets to wear NY Giants Throwbacks
I think the jersey is ugly as hell and to say it is typical for the way this season has gone. I was hoping for a flannel to be honest they are not much different than the Civil Rights jerseys..CheapLooking for Doug Flynn and Joel Youngblood items.NY Mets jerseys 78-82

Re: Mets to wear NY Giants Throwbacks
Those are in no way a throwback. They're an "inspired by". Big letters, one on each side of the chest, as the two New York teams wore in the early days of the 20th century.
But that vague reflection is where the similarity ends. Modern colors, modern typeface, modern Mr. Met patch.
They're closer to the Yankee uniforms of the period than those of the Giants.Comment
