Being a pretty old fart like I am, I’ve had the displeasure of seeing some of the worst looking uniforms worn by sports teams for nearly five decades.
In some cases, the colors and designs chosen by various teams have been so bad it actually made me want to watch something else.
Aside from the hideous visual effects and the blood spilling out of my eyeballs, what made matters even worse was the fact a lot of these teams wearing the retina burners completely sucked.
That has to be terribly demoralizing knowing that the uniforms suck just as much as the team sucks, or even worse, the team sucks more than the uni’s. Damn.
Anyway, these are the worst uniforms I’ve seen in my 40+ years and take note I’ve listed them in reverse order, saving the very worst for last.
Get your Rolaids ready.
17. Phoenix Suns
16. Utah Jazz
15. New York Islanders
14. Hartford Whalers
13. Washington Wizards
12. San Diego Padres
11. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
10. Toronto Raptors
9. Oregon Ducks
8. Syracuse Orange
7. Pittsburgh Pirates
6. Chicago White Sox (The Shorts!)
5. Golden State Warriors
4. Chicago White Sox
3. Houston Astros
2. Denver Nuggets
1. Houston Rockets
There you have it, the worst of the worst. Feel free to add to the list or let us know which of the uniforms you see is worse than another. You’d be hard pressed to find too many more that are uglier than these, but give it a try if your stomach can handle it.
See now I love the Oregon Ducks’ unis and its not because I live in Oregon I swear.
Living in Oregon may get you used to seeing the Ducks uni’s in a different light. Living anywhere else will get you a visit to the eye Dr.
Awww… the rockets are my squad even though I agree. those uni’s were ugly… there are a few I would have place before it though but maybe i’m just biased…
Houroc – Which team would you have put ahead of the Rockets? Don’t be shy.
As a Hawks’ fan, I definitely hated the lime green uniforms worn by Shareef Abdur-Raheem and crew. Sorry, I’ve never seen a lime green hawk in my life. Maybe they were going for a prehistoric look?
Yep, I forgot those vomit green uni’s the Hawks wear. A glaring omission no doubt.
