The 2021 MLB All-Star jerseys are in and they are, well, something.
With this year’s Midsummer Classic taking place at Coors Field, the uniforms have taken on a Rockies theme with navy blue New Era caps with each team’s logo redone in red and white with a purple star with snow-capped peaks on each point.
The uniforms will be two-button batting practice jerseys — navy blue for AL and white for NL — with team abbreviations running vertically in red with the logo placed over the abbreviation for an, um, interesting look.
Oh, and if you think these uniforms are just for batting practice and the Home Run Derby, think again.
For the first time, the players will actually wear these jerseys during the actual All-Star Game, ending the longstanding tradition of players wearing their team’s regular uniforms during the All-Star Game.
Naturally, fans (and media) were not happy with these uniforms nor the decision to have players wear them during the game and voiced those concerns via social media.
And if you are looking to actually buy one of these authentic All-Star jerseys, it will only cost you $399.99.
