==Uniforms== [[File:Ruppert Jones 1978.jpg|thumb|[[Ruppert Jones]] in the team's first uniform design|176x176px]] === 1977–1980 === The Mariners' original colors were blue and gold, the color scheme previously used by the Seattle Pilots and its successor Milwaukee Brewers. For the first four seasons, they wore white pullover jerseys at home with the team name in front and numbers on the left chest. The "M" in "Mariners" was shaped to resemble a [[trident]]. On the road, they wore baby blue pullover jerseys with the city name in front and numbers on the left chest. The lettering colors were blue with gold trim, though in the 1977 season the trim on the road jersey was white and the "Seattle" wordmark appeared smaller. The trident logo was added to the left sleeve prior to the 1979 season. The cap was all-blue and featured the gold trident logo with white trim. [[File:Floyd Bannister - Seattle Mariners - 1981.jpg|left|thumb|151x151px|[[Floyd Bannister]] in the 1981 Mariners uniform]] ===1981–1986=== The Mariners made some subtle changes to the uniform in 1981. The trident logo was replaced by blue and gold racing stripes on the shoulders, and the lettering received an extra blue outline. The number font also changed from rounded to block style. In 1985, the road jersey color was changed to grey. The cap logo also featured a slight update of the trident logo, changing its color to blue, along with additional outlines and a white star background, a logo first used for the 1979 All-Star Game.[[File:1987 Mother's Cookies - Scott Bankhead.jpg|thumb|upright|[[Scott Bankhead]] in the uniform design from 1987 to 1992]] === 1987–1992 === In 1987, the Mariners changed its uniform style to traditional buttoned tops and belted pants. Both uniforms incorporated blue piping and a block "Mariners" wordmark in blue with gold and blue outlines. The numbers remained blue, but eliminated the trim outlines. The cap logo was changed to a gold "S." ===1993–present=== The Mariners donned their current uniforms in {{mlby|1993}}.

In 2015, a silver inline was added to the wordmark of both uniforms, which was also applied to the block letters and numbers.

The Mariners have also worn Northwest Green alternate uniforms at different points in their history. The original version was unveiled in 1994 and had "Mariners" in silver with navy and white trim. The next season, the white trim was removed<ref>{{Cite web |title=Seattle Mariners Uniform - Alternate Uniform - American League (AL) - Chris Creamer's Sports Logos Page |url=https://www.sportslogos.net/logos/view/k8ubhh09gpbew6c3ohqenfxge/Seattle_Mariners/1995/Alternate_Uniform |access-date=2024-10-08 |website=SportsLogos.Net}}</ref> to improve visibility. The Mariners did not wear green uniforms from 1997 to 2010, after which it became a regular part of their uniform rotation. Formerly worn on Friday home games, the Northwest Green alternates are currently worn on select Saturday home games and on road games in which the home team wears either navy or black uniforms.<ref name=adam/><ref>{{Cite web |last=Divish |first=Ryan |author-link=Ryan Divish |date=October 20, 2010 |title=Mariners going green...with their jerseys |url=http://blog.thenewstribune.com/mariners/2010/10/20/mariners-going-green-with-their-jerseys/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150201021742/http://blog.thenewstribune.com/mariners/2010/10/20/mariners-going-green-with-their-jerseys/ |archive-date=February 1, 2015 |access-date=January 31, 2015 |website=[[The News Tribune]]}}</ref> {{multiple image | footer = [[James Jones (baseball)|James Jones]] and [[Ben Gamel]] in the Mariners' current uniform design | footer_align = center | image1 = James Jones Mariners MMP July 2014.jpg | alt1 = | width1 = 180 | image2 = Ben Gamel reaches third (34748897624) (cropped).jpg | alt2 = | width2 = 135 }} The navy alternate uniform originally replaced the Northwest Green alternate in 1997 and featured the team name in silver with Northwest Green and navy trim. In 1999, the alternates were updated to feature the city name with the "S" behind the compass rose logo and silver piping; this became their road alternate the following season after a corresponding home navy alternate was introduced. In 2003, the silver piping was removed and the letter and number fonts were changed to match the wordmark. In 2012, after the Northwest Green home alternates were brought back, the navy uniforms were tweaked anew, this time with the city name in front and stylized serifed letters instead of the normal block letters. In 2024, the names were changed to block lettering. It is now worn on most road games, though they have also donned them at home on occasion. A navy blue cap that features a ball and compass rose "S" logo is paired with the home white, road gray, and navy blue jerseys. A variation of this cap with a Northwest Green brim is worn with the home alternate jersey. In 1994, the Mariners also wore Northwest Green caps with navy brims, and in 1997 the team wore a navy cap with grey brims.
