The latest Nike City Connect drop is unlike anything Tigers fans have seen, or worn, before. Like the Lions, Pistons, and Red Wings, the Tigers will now add a black uniform to the mix.

Since these unis are a part of the MLB's four-year City Connect uniform launch with Nike, they, unfortunately, are still manufactured by Fanatics. So, there is a huge chance we will see Riley Greene rip his pants again- just in different colors.

With change comes opinions, and oh do Detroit fans have them. Here are just a few replies to the MLB's tweet announcing the newest uniform combo.

BINK on X: "@MLB @tigers these are putrid " / X (twitter.com)

The Sportsletter on X: "@MLB @tigers It looks like the players were run over by a racecar." / X (twitter.com)

on X: "@MLB @tigers Swing and a miss." / X (twitter.com)

From a quick scroll, it seemed that the majority were not impressed. However, some did welcome the change.
