the “retro logo” had nothing to do with the teams of old, but rather with the identity of the brewers. It still is the milwaukee brewers to me, and I’ll not buy new logo gear if it can be avoided.

The old logo was amazingly artistic.

I will keep clamoring for the old logo until they get a decent new one. Our current logo, well, sucks. One of the most forgettable in professional sports.

That being said, I’ll be happy when we can stop having this conversation. :)

so I don’t see how prevalent it is relative to the current logo. If nobody likes/ wears the new stuff, it might be more of an issue. I’m perfectly happy with both logos and must be a good consumer, as I have stuff with both on it.

One of the main reasons people say that we should get rid of the retro is that “players don’t like it”. Was a survey taken? I’d be curious to see the results.

Yes, it was a good logo. And yes, they need to scrap it completely and move on.

As far as I can remember, the only teams to hold steady with their long time logos are the Yankees, Red Sawx and Giants…Teams with very long histories in the game.

For a smaller market team like the Brewers, a new logo every 10 years or so is good business and reason for fans to buy more stuff with the new logo.

Please move on and get rid of the mb logo all together. If I want to buy any of that stuff I will get it from Miller Park or the Cooperstown collection, but no need to parade it out there every Friday home game. Getting kind of stale.

But I’d like to see the old toothpaste-blue road uniforms come back once a year. The pinstripes do look a little clowny, but I don’t mind the team busting them out once or twice a year also, which is what I voted for.

As far as I’m concerned, the new logo/color scheme are pretty solid.

I still would love to see the old with the new.

just because it’s one of the best and cleverest sports logos of all time. I don’t equate the old logo with only the days of Yount and Fingers, so I really don’t have the “move on” opinion. I just think it’s a great logo; but if the players don’t like it and a lot of fans are tired of it, then limited use is best.

Mixing new and old, like Lavender’s picture above, looks pretty good too

The old logo is BETTER. The old uniforms look COOLER. It doesn’t remind me of any old team, just like the new one doesn’t remind me of this team. The old logo, to me, is the Brewers logo. Here’s how you know it’s good: nobody wears anything with the 94-99 logo on it.

Regardless, I don’t see anything wrong with Retro days. Just like I don’t see anything wrong with Cerveceros days. It’s a way for the team to make money selling jerseys. That’s what this all boils down to and that’s why it will never go away.

The Jets successfully went back and updated a better previous design. I’d be in favor of that. I don’t hate the current logo but I don’t love it either. At the very least some sort of tweak or change seems due. Doing something would be a money maker as mentioned, and would put a stamp on this as a new current Brewers era. I really want “Milwaukee” on the road jersey. I’d get that in a heartbeat, but haven’t and likely won’t buy a new logo jersey.

Maybe they are phasing the ball and glove out since they’ve certainly reduced its use – pretty sure it’s just once a month now.

I understand not wanting to live in the past, but those are just better looking, more unique, and cooler uniforms. It’s not like the Yankees are living in the past for keeping the same “NY” script.

I wish they’d retire the uniforms for the players to wear—they’re always going to sell fan gear with the old logo. It’s just better-designed. It’s more that there’s still this glorification of 1982 that needs to go away in favor of the 2008 and later teams. (and oddly enough, the “retro Friday” uniform looks more like a 1992 uniform. I loved those teams, but they were AWFUL.)

I still have a hat and Jersey from 1995. I want to get some use out of them!

is truly the most boring of all MLB logos.

I bet the results would be overwhelming supporting either once a month or week- or the bring it back full time… now that the status quo is having it every week- fans want change again… never wil be satisfied

that these points have already been made, so I’m sorry to be repetitive. My $0.02 is that the retro logo is great, and that’s coming from someone who doesn’t hate the current logo nearly as much as most people here seem to. They should wear the retro every now and again, because at some point there’s going to be an entire generation of Brewers fans that will still think the logo is just a glove. (Seriously, I was way, WAY, too old before I figured it out.) I think they represent the retro just about the perfect amount right now.

I think they just kind of reached a saturation point with it the year they were doing Retro Fridays every Friday, and giving away mini retro bobbleheads, and going out of their way to take every single opportunity to mention the ‘82 team. It just kind of boiled over and people got sick of it. I’m sure the current players like the old stuff, but they are eager to kind of turn the page on that and define themselves outside of ’82’s shadow.

They should drop the all blue tops. Wear white home jerseys and traditional road grays. The all-blue shirts just look cheap.

If they’re going to do Retro Fridays, they should mix in all the different uniforms: the 1982 style they wear now, the early 1990’s pinstripes with “Brewers” in cursive, the mid-90’s stuff, and the non-pinstripes of the 70’s. That would at least mix it up a little.

… but I still find it dull. The current unis aren’t bad though, particularly when they break out the dark blue jerseys.

But I still prefer the ball/glove logo to any of the new logos, including the current edition.
