Saturday was the first City Connect day for the Mets and this season, they unveiled a new combination to go with their gray jerseys: purple sleeves.
Watching the Mets take on the Toronto Blue Jays on a chilly night at Citi Field, you’ll notice the vibrant purple sleeves underneath the jersey and running up the arms of the players.
The Mets debuted the City Connects on the field on April 27, 2024. That deep into spring, there weren’t many days that the Mets needed to use undersleeves, but when they had they were black/dark grey. So this is a nice change that accentuates the purple accents on the jersey and hat. You can learn all about the design, here.
And check out the purple sleeves on the Mets City Connect uniform below.
