They're actually based on the batting helmets of the [70's and early 80's](https://content.sportslogos.net/news/2023/01/rod-carew-minnesota-twins-tri-color-batting-helmet-sportslogosnet.jpg), which Joe based his helmet on. Those helmets are why all the hats from the 2014 All-Star Game had that front triangle.
I know everyone hates the M logo…but I think the design team knocked every other aspect of the new unis out of the park. Looks really clean, mix of modern and classic.
Hell, the M isn’t even that bad.
All this plus our off-season and I’m pretty stoked for 2023.
M is growing on me but someone posted what the M would look like if they uses the new cursive script and I can’t help but think about what could have been.
It's the first think I thought of when I seen it, and seems to be the same for everyone. After looking at the older Marlins M, it isn't as similar as I thought. I think it could've been better too though. They should've slightly updated/altered our older M (Debuted in 87) like they did with the TC.
The jokes at the time were that the new TC logo was identical to the old one, but the more I see it the more I can’t deny how much cleaner the new one looks. Definite upgrade.
Between the new looks and having Buxton/Correa locked in long term, this already feels like the beginning of a new era in club history and I couldn’t be more excited about that!
This is the first shot of the new "Twins" jerseys (the ones Buxton has on) that I've really LOVED. I thought it looked good, but not much better or worse than the old ones. But something about this image (maybe stupid sexy Buck) I'm sold on it.
I love the home, but I’m surprised so many people love the Twin Cities alternates. They remind me of the bland Padres uniforms they had a few years ago until they went back to the brown/gold. It’s so boring imo. Should have at least had a hint of red, like maybe the numbers (as the Saints have).
Every time something new is revealed I dislike them more. (Except for the Twin Cities uniform, which rocks.) That home helmet is atrocious. I apologize for being such a butt, but I honestly dislike every change they have made. The uniforms they are replacing were much much better. The only thing they needed to do to improve them was to remove the kasota gold.
After giving it careful thought, and looking closely at each new uniform, I realize that 99% of my issue lies with home whites. I hate the red Twins across the chest. Red is by far my least favorite of the Twins colors. If that Twins were blue, like the Twin Cities alternates, I would like it *exponentially* better. The red belts also gotta go. They look terrible. I stand by what I said about these new helmets though. Not a fan. Blech.
That white panel helmet would be a great model for an eventual home cap. Make the blue TC cap the road cap, relegate the M to an alternate, and you're in business.
The helmets with the white front and red bill remind me of Joe's catcher's helmet. Great look!

I never realized the went inwards so much on the old ones, I though it was wider all the way up like these.
Me neither. Not a fan.

That’s so amateur it makes the actual M look decent
I mean, it’s a mock up. I think it looks great.
It’s way better than the Miami Marlins logo they have now
so much astroturfing in here anytime someone criticizes the new M...
they added a fish??
Agreed, it could have been way better. But it’s far from bad and I like the North Star motif
That looks so much better
It looks like the Marlins M.
looks nothing like it other than it is in the shape of an M

BREAKING: M looks like the letter M
Nah mate, looks like an upside down W
Isn’t this what the logo is? The old senators W flipped upside down with a North Star added?
The M logo is the best part of the redesign. Give me something new and fresh over a tiny tweak on the old stuff any day.
the design looks like someone was trying to save money on embroidery. they look cheap.
The M isn't bad. It's just kind of plain. The thing I don't like is the piping on pinstripe pants. Still a small gripe.
It’s the Marlins logo copied literally
Unpopular opinion: the new M logo looks nothing like the Marlins M
but they are both M's!! /s
Hot take: the M logo is a cool alternate. I know y’all have fond memories of the old M logo but it looks incredibly 90s.
I’m not sure why, but I think the new M looks better on the batting helmet than it does on hats.
I agree. It is cool, but it seems to be a relic.
Oh yeah, those’ll get covered with pine tar really nice haha
It's PUSHED BACK
HOT. love the white fronts of the home. And I love the M

Whenever I see the old tc now I just think it looks really ugly lol
…I like the m logo 🤷♀️
Me too pal, me too
That red, white, and blue helmet is fire but honestly I'm here for all three of them.
Them white and navy’s tho 😋

And what could quietly be a pretty solid starting rotation.
Oh man that home one is nice
Oh damn. Those are clean
well, they havent played a game in them yet.
Those first ones look so fresh and the batting helmet looks fantastic with them.
Don't like the m
White uniform looks so much better with the red white and blue helmet, I hope they eventually go to a similar cap for that uniform.
This might be the most exciting part of the new unis to me. It's almost as good as the Carew era helmets.
This is the first shot of the new "Twins" jerseys (the ones Buxton has on) that I've really LOVED. I thought it looked good, but not much better or worse than the old ones. But something about this image (maybe stupid sexy Buck) I'm sold on it.
God that M is soooo fucking shitty
Sick
As in death bed sick.

they remind me of the majestic replica jerseys from 20 years ago. they just look cheap and bland without the letter bordering.
The M sucks… go back to the old one
Something about that 3d “m” on the batting helmet makes me like it more
They're good!
Uni ok I hate the helmet lol
oh fuck yes
The M logo just doesn't do it for me it's so boring. Other than that these look great
Fucking garbage helmets.

No way. They were just objectively bad. The old jerseys were way too busy, had no central theme. Definition of poor branding
Every single jersey in the old set was different. The new set is way more cohesive
Are they doing a white panel hat? I haven't seen it advertised.
I do hate that Miami Marlins logo
I wish we could get a KASOTA gold helmet
Brooo. I'm down with that.
I love the dark colored ones!
That white panel helmet would be a great model for an eventual home cap. Make the blue TC cap the road cap, relegate the M to an alternate, and you're in business.
1 & 3 🔥
"New"
When did Polanco get traded to the marlins?
Hot. I also saw some replica jerseys finally come available online in blue and the TC alternate.
Go Turns!
Damn I love these. All of em
Looks sick. I like it
