Just when you thought you were familiar with all of the Arizona Diamondbacks' new uniforms...

On Wednesday, the D-backs unveiled a series of "special event" jerseys and caps to be worn on specific days during the 2016 season.

They are:

-Pink-themed jerseys with a dark-gray crown and brim on Mother's Day. Proceeds will be donated to Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

-Light-blue-themed jerseys with a gray base on Father's Day. Proceeds will go to the Prostate Cancer Foundation.

-A new woodland camouflage design licensed by the US Marine Corps on Memorial Day, and red, white and blue jerseys and caps on Independence Day. Proceeds for both sets of jerseys will go to Welcome Back Veterans.

-San Diego Padres classic brown- and yellow-themed jerseys and caps on All-Star Workout Day, in honor of the host team.

-A gold outline around the team logo on caps for the 2016 All-Star Game.

The D-backs introduced a new set of uniforms before the 2016 season began -- including a teal offering that actor Rob Lowe isn't terribly fond of.
