Toronto Blue Jays City Connect Uniform
The Toronto Blue Jays are embracing the city's vibrant nightlife with their new "Night Mode" City Connect uniform. “The Blue Jays are at the core of the city, and those who call Toronto home know how the city comes alive at night," said Marnie Starkman, the Blue Jays’ executive vice president of business operations. "Our new City Connect uniform aims to emulate that ‘Night Mode’ feeling in the vibrant colours, the rhythmic skyline reflecting off the lake, and all the distinct details that make our city so dynamic."
With a darker blue base, complemented by pops of brighter blue and red, the new uniforms outline the Toronto skyline across the chest. This marks the first dark base for a Blue Jays jersey since 2011. The team has dubbed this color “pitch blue,” inspired by the reflection of Lake Ontario at night. The design is further enhanced with “hyper royal blue” and “speed red” accents, which are also featured on the cap, showcasing a “T” that emulates the pillars of city hall atop a maple leaf.
In the center of the chest, surrounded by the CN Tower and the buildings of downtown Toronto, rests Rogers Centre, a familiar sight for many Torontonians. "Toronto is a great city. It’s diverse. But Toronto also knows how to have fun, and a lot of that happens after hours,” said Blue Jays legend José Bautista, who was in town for the release. “There are definitely a lot of different options in the nightlife around the city. It’s good to live in a place where, if you choose to and you want to partake, you have plenty of options. Toronto does know how to have fun, and we experienced a little bit of that when we were here.”
The uniforms also feature some hidden details. Inside the cap, the Toronto skyline is depicted as a rhythmic heartbeat. Inside the collar of the jersey, where you’d find the tag on a shirt, it reads “Diversity is Our Strength,” a phrase from Toronto’s coat of arms.
Fans can look forward to seeing the new "Night Mode" uniforms during night games throughout the season. This decision keeps in line with the theme, highlighting the vibrant nightlife that inspired the design.
The Blue Jays’ new City Connect uniforms not only represent a bold fashion statement but also capture the essence of Toronto’s dynamic and diverse culture. Fans eagerly await to see their team shine under the night lights in these vibrant new kits.
