The Lehigh Valley IronPigs, Triple-A affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies in the International League, will play Friday home games next season wearing uniforms that evoke the 1950s—a decade more than half a century before the team’s 2008 debut. The “fauxback” uniforms unveiled today feature their familiar pig-based brand transmogrified into one from a different era.
A retro-style pig character—much friendlier than the IronPigs metallic contemporary logo—features prominently on a red cap.
A cream-colored jersey is adorned by red piping and a script wordmark across the chest—note the curly-Q on the descender of the G in Pigs, meant to evoke a pig’s tail.
The IronPigs, who are named for the pig iron forged in the steel mills of eastern Pennsylvania, will play their first Friday home game on opening day, March 28, 2025.
