The Orange Hat

Featured Replies

This gets asked every year, it seems like. 

 

But will we ever wear it again? 

 

 

We saw the last of it in 2014. They tried it for a couple weeks and then stopped. I really liked when they were using the BP hats at te time. Definitely my favorite with the orange brim.

 

 

Doubt it. Loved the look with the white uniforms. If they are not going to wear it they need to stop selling it and claiming its "on field".

 

if they aren't going to wear one of the best looks, hopefully it will be a moot point in a few years. I'd be very surprised if the new owner keeps the exact look we have now.

 

 

I love that logo. While at first I liked the new look, it has slowly started dying on me. They never really embraced the brightness or uniqueness of the colors. So much they could do with it but don't. Really would like to see a secondary logo that showcased the Marlin, even though I don't know how they would do it. The duplication of the main logo on the shoulder, chest and hat is getting old and I'm starting to miss uniforms that's really pushed the Marlin animal in look and feel with the color and logo rather than focusing on Miami.

 

 

I liked when they decided to wear it on Thursday home games with the Whites.  I think it looked great and have no idea why they have banished it. 

It was Fridays. And that was the first two Friday home games of 2014 and then it vanished.

Yes that's true. They used to wear the Black with white pants at home on Friday and Saturday then they changed to the white with orange hat. Now they just wear the regular white and black hat it seems.

Black was home Fridays in 2012 for sure. By 2014 the black became for Saturday games only (when at home). I can't remember for sure about 2013.

I like the orange cap, I which it was more red orange than it is. I remembered Samson on Dan Lebastard radio show saying the Orange cap was a better seller than the black one. The proof is, they still sell it as an O-Field and they even made a Orange cap version with the ASG patch on it. Why o' why they stop wearing it, no idea, but I love the way it looks with the white unis.

 

The Orange cap with black jersey was a bad idea and I'm glad they just did it once in the exhibition game

 

 

They used to have mannequins in the clubhouse and they'd put that day's combo on the mannequin due to the amount of different combos.

I remember this

Does anyone remember the orange batting helmet they used for the one exhibition game against the Yankees in 2012? I wonder if those still exist.

Here's the mannequins. Middle combo only worn once in the exhibition game. e3d7155bdfdb8cf418358c7490fe6fab.jpg&key=ccedaf016185e0f9a3a44d7cb5dd7e36fcaa56ea2053eca0536171ed2538fd7f

 

They wore the orange hat once with the home whites. Thought it was a pretty good look.

4 times. Twice in 2012 twice in 2014. Looked great.

The game in which Stanton hit a walk-off grand slam features a picture of Mike Dunn.  Haha.

 

That's because that pic purposely only shows guys who hit like pitchers. 

 

 

More importantly, how about the orange helmet?

What about it? It was shit and should never be seen again. It made them look like construction workers in hard hats.
