In spring 2012, the Major League Baseball (MLB), San Diego Padres will ditch their wave styled font and shadowy colors around the player’s numbers for a bolder, traditional look.

During the 2011 season, the Padres debuted their military inspired uniform that featured a digital camouflage design, which will remain the same.

Throughout the team’s history, the primary uniform changed four times. The original 1975 edition Padres uniform was yellow and brown and stated the city they represented.

In 1984, their uniforms changed again to a retro look, that kept the same colors.

The 1998 season introduced the blue and white colored jerseys.

The last change occurred in 2005, when the Padres updated their look to a modern and clean appearance.

According to MLB.com, the Padres president stated, “I think the most loved uniforms in baseball are the ones that have tradition and history…they stand the test of time. They’re not trendy colors or trendy design… but they’re a classic baseball style.”

This baseball season, expect a classic, traditional look for the San Diego Padres.
