What are the ugliest team uniforms from any sport?

Images will certainly help, even an explanation of why they are the worst, and if there are any links to articles about how bad they are, that would be great too.

The 2006 Boston Bruins alt is certainly one them

Milwaukee Admirals.
Not good, are there any worse?

Yes!


Milwaukee Admirals Christmas Jersey from the 2002 season is worse!

But wait...


The 2003 Christmas Jersey is another step down. This jersey was worn by the Milwaukee Admirals.

Finally, the worst jersey of them all



This time, it's a jersey worn by the team The Milwaukee Admirals

The worst team uniform was the Cleveland Indians of the mid 1970s, they were all red. Just think if you were playing against he Indians during the 1974 to 1978 seasons. It's first not good to dress in one solid color uniform, and second they all looked like tomatoes on the field. Even their shoes were all red.

You can't possibly think these Philadelphia Eagles Throwback Uniforms weren't the worst ever. This was in 2007!!


Bright yellow with Powder Blue shoulder/numbers?
Color psychology: "Yellow builds self-confidence and encourages optimism."
Could anyone really be confident in that?


But they were effective!!
They took down the Detriot Lions 56-21

And you know how rough the Lions were that year :P

I mean, it's bad enough our team is named for a car part, but did we have to dress them in teal? Really? And where did those horses come from?

I would have to say some of the uniform worn by professional golfers have been the ugliest ever. Here are a couple of the biggest fashion offenders.

John Daly has been on of the worst offenders.



Whomever this is certainly has the wrong idea on luck.



John Daly just won't quit



The Three Stooges did the ugly golf uniform so well... it really suited them.



And the ugly golf collection from John Daly!

I really have hard time thinking on this one. Good thing I found this site. http://www.toptenz.net/top-10-ugliest-sports-uniforms.php XD

Can't stop laughing while looking at these uniforms!

Here are the top 10 Ugliest Sport Uniforms according to that site.

10. Quebec Nordiques (1972 – 1995)


9. Philadelphia Eagles (1932)


8. Hartford Whalers (1979-1990)


7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1976-1995)


6. Syracuse University Football (Current)


5. San Diego Padres (1983)


4. Vancouver Canucks (1978 – 1984)


3. Pittsburgh Pirates (1976 – 1986)


2. Denver Nuggets (1982 – 1993)


1. Houston Astros (1975 – 1993)


I pretty much agree to this list. But I also have to add this one... lol



Remember the old basketball uniforms before? The short-shorts? lol I kinda find them funny and awkward looking.

Maybe I should let this team jersey speak for itself?

http://iheartguts.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/team-menstrual-cycles.jpg

Maybe I'm being hard on them, since the jersey apparently won a prize for its design. Still, I think it is pretty awful.

Here's a team photo:

Whoever thought up the Wrestling Singlet ought to be jailed for being the optimum perv. Can anyone explain why these hideous garments are inflicted upon all wrestlers, amateur and pro? My God! Put it on, and it's just like saying, "Guess I won't be going to the pickup bar tonight..." It's a crime, I tell ya.

I'm glad I don't have to wear them; but, I think those are actually based on practicality for the sport. They have to be able to grip and grab each other's shoulders and would tear cloth, but if nothing went around their neck their shorts would get pulled down or off during the match. The real old Greeks used to wrestle nude but modern audiences are too prudish, I guess.

Two of the worst in the NBA's uniform history:
Houston Rockets 1995-2002 (the Pinstripes) and the Toronto Raptos 1995-1999 (the Raptor scare me off when you try to dunk on me).

My vote will go to Sumo wrestling.

Some may ask what uniform you are talking about? But seriously, the name of their uniform is Mawashi. A thick loincloth that also shows the ranking of the Sumo westler - the lower rank wrestler can only wear darker color Mawashi and the senoir boys can wear more colorful Mawashi. The highest rank wrestler is called Yokozuna.

Sumo is a 2,000 years old sport that is very popular and entertaining in Japan. This national sport of Japan starts from January and ends on November.
