- The San Diego Padres are the latest MLB team to drop their City Connect uniforms.
- The new color scheme for San Diego is quite different.
- But, it has gone over very well with the majority of the fans.
The Colorado Rockies and Milwaukee Brewers are a couple of teams to reveal their City Connect uniforms, and both fanbases had mixed reactions when they dropped the news.
On Friday, the San Diego Padres got into the game of City Connect uniforms. While the jerseys leaked on Wednesday, the ballclub announced the official reveal in a brilliant video.
Two cities. Two cultures. One home team.
Dos ciudades. Dos culturas. Un equipo de casa. https://t.co/N1UTiGTNN5

Fernando Tatis Jr., Manny Machado, and Joe Musgrove walking out at the beginning of this clip is terrific. More than that, the jerseys San Diego is going to sport are definitely unique.
Here’s a full shot of the jerseys, followed by a video of the team store ready to sell a ton of these jerseys.

Padres Fans Are In Love With These New City Connect Uniforms
When the initial leak dropped, there were mixed reactions. However, that was just the jersey. The teal-colored hat is something different, and the alternate-colored sleeves are also a perfect touch.
The Padres went with a binational theme in their City Connect series, using vibrant colors that pay homage to the Hispanic culture of a city so close to the US-Mexico border. They think their young fans will like them.

The uniforms are terrific, and this video the Padres released has to be the best City Connect reveal of them all. Soon enough we will see the Padres rock these uniforms on the field.
