The main house uniform for Boston Red Sox is white with red piping around the neck and under both sides of the front pocket and "RED SOX" in red letters drawn blue curved in the chest. It has been in use since 1979, and was previously used from 1933 to 1972, although the pipeline occasionally disappears and reappears; between the Red Sox using a pullover with the same "RED SOX" template. There is a red number, but no player's name, in the back of the home uniform.

Street uniform
Uniform uniforms and Red Sox logo stamps have now been in use since 1946. While home uniforms have remained the same ever since, street uniforms have undergone some minor changes, most often changing between red and blue writing on five different occasions.
Since the introduction of Red Sox hats and uniforms from 1946 to 1971, street uniforms use blue letters and numbers. By switching to a pullover shirt in 1972, the paper went to red in the same font as the home uniform. Pullover was dropped in 1979 and the street uniform once again used the blue block letter. However, red house writing was back in 1990, along with home fonts. In 2009, the writing went to blue again, but used the home font. By 2014, road uniforms are again switched to red in home font uniforms.
Since 1946, both blue and red have been used three different times.

Alternative uniform
Red Sox red house uniforms are red and worn with white pants. The original version of the red jersey was introduced in 2003. "RED SOX" is displayed on the chest with blue notes that are underlined with white. Like a regular home uniform, it does not show the player's name in the back, with a blue figure with a white trim. Initially, the uniform has a blue piping that replicates the pattern of regular house T-shirt piping. The uniforms are very frugal from 2003-2007, used only for Sunday's home and July 4 games. As such, they are not seen on national television, except in the circumstances that they are used as part of a doubleheader. In 2008, the uniforms were worn for all matches at home Saturday, regardless of the matches that took place in the afternoon or in the evening. In 2009, the blue pipe was removed from the jersey and they began to be worn for all home matches Friday night. For the 2009 season alone, an alternate hat is used with this jersey that features a "hanging Sox" logo.
Alternative street uniforms were introduced in 2009, and involve the gray trousers and blue jersey with "BOSTON" in red letters outlined in white on the chest. Number and name are also red with white lines. They are also used in most street games Friday. Alternative hats are also used for this uniform in 2009 alone.
Other uniform alternatives
For St Patrick's Day spring training, the Red Sox wearing bright green shirts with "RED SOX" with white letters red-striped on the front and a "Hanging Sox" logo displayed on the left arm. While the other uniforms all wear blue hats, this alternative uses a green uniform that matches the uniform. The uniform made its regular season debut on April 20, 2007 in honor of former Boston Celtics coach, general manager and president of Red Auerbach, who died during the previous season. Similar green uniforms were worn on June 20, 2008 to celebrate the recent Celtics victory over L.A. Lakers in the NBA Finals. The uniform had a white line on the sides and the team wore their normal naval cap. In addition, the Sox uses a standard uniform variation for Earth Day 2009. The uniform features a white pullover shirt with red shirts and a green team name. Trim uniforms show a green pipe along the pants and finish with traditional red socks. Finally, the hanging Sox logo is modified to display a green recycling symbol around the logo.
On April 20, 2013, the Red Sox changed the text on their home uniform from "RED SOX" to "BOSTON" for one day to honor the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing, which occurred earlier this week, as well as the "B STAGE" patch stitched to the shirts ( this patch is also used by opposing Kansas City Royals.) Due to the hasty nature of the T-shirt made, the text on the front of the T-shirt is less blue line even though the number on the back has it. On April 21, 2014 (Patriot Day), the Red Sox dressed in this modified home uniform again to mark the anniversary of the bombing. To properly replicate the original jersey, the outline was not present on the front of this version as well.
Caps
Red Sox usually show a navy cap with a red "B" in the ornament. This has been the standard Red Sox for most of their existence, though from 1975 to 1978 the red hat with blue rims, and "B" in blue with white trim.
In 2009, the consecutive "Hanging Sox" logo caps were unveiled, and paired with an alternate uniform. However, during the 2010 season they returned to the usual "B" hat regardless of what uniform they wore.
Socks and sweatshirts
From 1936-2002 (with the exception of the 1974 alternate house uniform), the club wore blue jerseys or stockings and colored stirrup stockings, with red bracelets and two white lines on a navy blue background in the upper socks. In 1974, the team wore red shirts (and solid red stirrups) at home and traditional blue sweat with tri-color stirrups on the street. Since 2003, the team has been wearing red all-round stockings with their home uniforms and uniforms, along with red shirts, with one exception: as part of the logo and redesign in 2009, the Red Sox initially wore solid blue stockings and T-shirts with their street uniforms. The change drew some criticism from fans because it was too similar to a Yankees uniform, and the team returned to red shirts and stockings after their first journey and the rest of the season. While Curt Schilling mainly wears stockings on the sidelines of his career in Boston, most of the players have left the stirrups for full socks.
