Rockies unveil their 2025 City Connect Jerseys and they're fun and colorful

Want some positive Colorado Rockies' news? Amid the brutal start to 2025, the Rockies have their fans something to smile about on Saturday when the club unveiled their City Connect Jeresy set for this season.

The new City Connect uniforms are a drastic change for the last few years where the Rockies pade homage to the Colorado state license plate design with the green and white. Instead, the 2025 uniforms

Rockies’ players reaction has been positive so far.

“I like it, man,” Rockies third baseman Ryan McMahon said to Thomas Hardin of MLB.com. “It’s a little louder than our last ones. So it should be cool.”

The last uniforms were some of the most popular in baseball and were very popular with Rockies’ fans. The old City Connect uniforms with the green and white color pattern were some of the best selling City Connect jersey’s in 2024. However, the club decided it was time for a new look.

“The license plate program was a little conservative,” said Jim Kellogg, the Rockies’ vice president of community and retail operations to MLB.com. “It was awesome, and the story was great. And so this is a complete 180 change from that, which is what it should be. We have a young team, so we want to make sure that we're tying into a new day, a new sunrise and sunset. Nike came up with these colors looking at the sunsets that we had. It’s bold and it’s fun.”

The new uniforms should certainly be fun. In my opinion, the new colors and pattern fall more in line with many of the other City Connect styles around big league baseball.

The new Rockies’ uniforms also somewhat mirror the vibrant colors the Nuggets used this season for their 5280 jerseys and that’s another fun thing for Denve and Colorado fans.

And the Rockies need those kinds of good vibes. It’s shaping up to be another long season in Denver, and so, the more fun the better. And in this day and age, fun uniform combos, especially in the stuffy world of professional baseball create more fun for the players and fans. It’s just something fans can get behind and look forward too.

“We're going to have a whole lifestyle assortment of merchandise around this,” Kellogg said to MLB.com “Eventually, not right away, we'll have 35 different hats for people to wear. We're going to have way more clothing and apparel, casual clothing and lifestyle clothing than we did with the first one.”

Rockies fans can look forward to seeing the City Connect uniforms for the first time on April 18 when they take on the Washington Nationals. The Rockies will then wear City Connect jerseys for every Friday home game for the remainder of the season.
