In case you missed it, the Arizona Diamondbacks recently unveiled their highly-anticipated 2024 jersey lineup, showcasing a vibrant mix of Sedona Red and Teal outlines.

The official Diamondbacks press release emphasized that these new jerseys symbolize a “new age of Diamondbacks baseball.”
The collection features two types of home uniforms in white and red, road grays, and Sedona Red for the alternative option.
However, conspicuously absent from this fresh lineup were the iconic pinstripe throwbacks, a notable omission that left many fans disappointed.
A quick scan of social media reveals a chorus of discontent from fans:
The Oregon Ducks of MLB
That black jersey though, I do like it https://t.co/fcF03RaQRu

Listen I love the Diamondbacks… but man they really struggle when creating new uniforms. I'm not a fan as of now, maybe they'll grow on me during the season
(Please go back to purple and teal)
1 other note, red jersey says Diamondbacks and not D-Backs https://t.co/XjB9BHRp5j

The diamondbacks approach to jerseys is just so wrong

I feel bad for diamondbacks fans cause they switch the jerseys up every 3 years. https://t.co/KU5ST4CwV3

Downgrade:
– Why remove the numbers from 3 of your jerseys but not the 4th
– Why use "DIAMONDBACKS" on the 4th jersey, it looks cluttered
– Piping is too thick
– Red wordmark on the road jerseys is terribleOverall a poor downgrade from the 2020 set, much less the good 2015 set. https://t.co/mQWS3gba3y

Meanwhile, there were some positive reactions.
Just saw these, those jerseys actually go hard.
If it weren’t the Diamondbacks I’d actually want to purchase one 😭 https://t.co/bi2Qn6BBry

Things I love:
– The black is fuego 🔥. Teal POPS
– return of the original D logo. Would go hard on an all black cap
– off set white jersey
– Diamondbacks written out in full. Having the nickname was amateurish lol https://t.co/a171SD8GDp— Mike Hancho (@AZphanatic) November 17, 2023
