A memorial for foregone Rockies jerseys
A week ago we learned from MLB.com’s Thomas Harding that the Rockies have taken the black vest jerseys out of rotation in preparation for the reveal of the new Nike City Connect uniforms in the coming weeks. Now, there is a fairly sizable difference of opinions on this uniform with some celebrating the move and others lamenting the iconic look. Personally, I always liked the black vests, as it was a unique look for the team and black goes very well with purple and silver. Retiring looks is a natural part of baseball, so today I wanted to remember some of the foregone jerseys in Rockies history.
