Major League Baseball has unveiled its looks for the jerseys and caps to be worn around San Diego during All-Star Week festivities.

MLB is also, for the first time ever, commemorating Mother’s Day and Father’s Day with unique jerseys and caps, plus using new designs for Memorial Day and the Fourth of July.

Here’s a look at some of the highlights to expect from the 2016 Championship Season uniform collection, starting with what fans will see in San Diego during All-Star celebrations.

GATORADE ALL-STAR WORKOUT DAY AND T-MOBILE HOME RUN DERBY: MONDAY, JULY 11

The jerseys and caps worn on Gatorade All-Star Workout Day, which includes the T-Mobile Home Run Derby, will borrow from this year’s All-Star Game color scheme.

That scheme is patterned after the classic brown and yellow color combination worn by the Padres from 1969–84, a combo San Diego is wearing during 2016 Friday home games at Petco Park. With additional touches of orange and use of the Padres’ famous retro lettering, the harken back to the late-70’s and early 80’s.

ALL-STAR GAME: TUESDAY, JULY 12

New Era will once again provide a special cap design for this year’s All Stars. This year’s caps feature a gold outline around teams’ respective logos and a heather grey brim. A set of gold metal stars as the eyelets on the top of the caps’ front panel will be new. Each cap will also have a pair of gold stars flanking the silhouetted batter logo on the back of the crown.

For the second year in a row, players’ signatures will be printed into the front of their jerseys on the lower, right-hand side; surrounded by stars representing the number of All-Star games the player’s made in their career.

MOTHER’S DAY: SUNDAY, MAY 8

The new Mother’s Day uniforms and caps incorporate pink into team logos, with all caps highlighted by a dark grey crown and brim.

These combine with the pink bats, ribbons and wristbands players have worn on Mother’s Day to raise funds and awareness to fight breast cancer since 2006.

FATHER’S DAY: SUNDAY, JUNE 19

Father’s Day uniforms and caps will feature light blue incorporated in team logos. Caps will also have a grey base, similar to Mother’s Day.

Players have worn blue ribbons and wristbands on Father’s Day since MLB first partnered with the Prostate Cancer Foundation in 1996.

MEMORIAL DAY: MONDAY, MAY 30

Teams will wear special caps for Memorial Day as well as matching jerseys.

This year’s uniforms utilize a new woodland camouflage design licensed by the US Marine Corps. The Toronto Blue Jays uniform will feature the distinctive Canadian Forces CADPAT design.

INDEPENDENCE DAY: MONDAY, JULY 4

American-based MLB clubs will sport red, white and blue, stars-and-stripes-decorated caps to celebrate Independence Day.

For the second year in a row, clubs will also wear a matching jersey on the Fourth of July. The Toronto Blue Jays uniform will feature Maple Leaf designs on the cap, incorporating the colors of the Canadian flag and will be worn on Canada Day, July 1, as well as July 4.
