I ... don't know what to make of it. The new N isn't bad, but the seahorse with the trident screams "trying too hard!" Tidal green looks more like toothpaste green, but maybe it'll look better in action? Not sure why they've felt the need to shoehorn in Orioles colors just because they're the parent club, when they've had a perfectly good color scheme for years. But it's their nickel.

The camo deal looks like CUSA Basketball: The Baseball Uniform.

Wait, I think I just... Yup, I threw up a little. Those are awful. Who makes these decisions? The Anchor N looks awesome, but the color scheme is hard on the eyes. At least they got the color of the Elizabeth River correct... Ewwww

What does a seahorse have to do with the tides? Does this mean no more Riptide?

WTF who'd they pay to make that decision? Were they on acid?

Hope this is just a trial run. YUCK. Come on Ken, you have to do better than this!!!

I guess they never took a poll. Fans should boo the uniform on opening night.

I guess my blue and light blue hat will be obsolete now :'(

I thought they used to have one of the best color combinations/uniforms out of the many teams I rooted for. The tidal "T" logo was also one of my favorites. They're the Tides not the Seahorses.

In the end I guess it doesn't matter, people will move on and no amount of complaining will change it back... or will it?

They had orange worked in for a while, which I was in favor of. The green though??? The seahorse makes sense though...because I see so many of those at the beac.... wait. At least they picked an intimidating sea creature right?

At least they're not the El Paso Chihuahuas........

The new Tides uniform has set the bar high on the ugly meter.

Wow... that is... unfortunate. But hey, a Chihuahua would eat a seahorse.

Being a former pitcher I can see how this would get in to your head during a game. Trying to pick someone off on 1st or 3rd you slide your eyes over and see a fukin Chihuahua face lol

"Hey! My eyes are down here! "

I like the anchor N on the black hat. I might actually wear that.

The rest? Eh, whatever. I never really saw people rocking Tides gear around.

Good thing that isn't a women's team.

The black N hat with the chain is bad @ss.

The rest is hot garbage and embarrassing.
