kroywen Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Remember when Nike was consistently pumping out kits that were a million times better than Adidas? Those days seem so far away. Adidas' (fairly new) approach of going conservative/traditional with primary and change kits, and going wild with third kits, is actually a really good way to go about things. Can still sell some crazy looking kits and get lots of attention for them, but the team's overall look remains intact and in keeping with the club's traditional uniforms. I'll never like the off-the-wall looks from any manufacturer, but I get that they're not going away anytime soon. If they're going to stick around, better to relegate them to thirds rather than primary or change kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or at the least, the one that keeps changing. Grey to black/blue to dark navy blue in the past three seasons. Formerly known as DiePerske Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a childrens strip, it's difficult to change striping up. Probably an infants kit. It also has the new badge and adidas hasn't tossed shoulder stripes completely out. I have a feeling the European teams will be similar to MLS. One kit with sleeve stripes and one with stripes down the torso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 I really hate this new trend of putting manufacturers' logos on the sleeves as well as the chest. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattb6 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Swansea and Bournemouth both look great. Not a look so far in the Premier League that I absolutely hate, so that's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than those big honking JD logos on each shoulder, those kits are damn near perfect. Bournemouth will look great next year (though as mentioned above, the JD circles are going to clash with the new Premier League patch terribly).

JosiahWVU Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 USA is in white tonight. WAY better than the black. Man City looks horrendous. Nike quit with the pinstriped, contrasting shoulders. They look awful. And why those colors? Black is fine, but red and volt? Why!? Swansea is good. Were they with Joma last year? Bournemouth looks good.
