If that is a full navy back I think that would be a bit of a conflict when playing a team with a dark blue or black jersey. Weird. Love the lighter blue though.

No, and you're right that could work. I guess having such a light and dark half and half is kind of tricky. Would rather they just went all light blue. But we'll have to see.

Would rather they just went all light blue. But we'll have to see. Do they play NYCFC this year? That could get annoying if they both wear their light kits. This is why MLS should make sure each team has a third kit or that the two kits won't conflict with everyone else's uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyk33 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 It appears that the San Francisco NASL team is going to be named the San Francisco Deltas. http://us12.campaign-archive1.com/?u=bcf91a4debcf4e2f8bb00dae3&id=4b905667b2&e=e6f44b1b8e Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digby Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 SKC still wears light blue at home though, paired with navy shorts, so the clash problem is still there. Perhaps SKC will wear whatever their new away kit turns out to be at home, while Vancouver would wear the usual whites. There's a real glut of light blue/navy teams in MLS right now, and that will only be made worse by the entry of Minnesota United (unless they change colors). Vancouver executes the combo the best, at least. But it is a little odd that MLS put the kibosh on third kits when there seems to be a practical need for them. That or teams need to coordinate their aways better. Fan Style ShirtsShowcasing fan-made sports apparel by artists and designers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corvus Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Grasp of contrast isn't their best attribute. As SKC's light silver on white jersey shows. Or rather, doesn't show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navy shorts make it a little better, sure (I remember a Galaxy/SKC match a couple years back when SKC still wore light blue shorts -- it was on a bright sunny afternoon and utterly impossible). But the shirt is more important and maximizing contrast there ought to be a bigger priority, and I don't see why it's such a challenge to require teams to have a light shirt and a dark shirt.

nas1787 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 One thing not mentioned so far in this thread: TFC may have a new shirt sponsor this year. They were actually meant to have a new one last year before re-upping with BMO for 1 more season. From the Red Patch Boys forum: " I have a bit of inside information (I'm not usually this cool). This is from a couple inside folks within the banking / sports sponsorship areas. So BMO as a company is moving towards basketball as their main sport affiliation. This year BMO was "given" the TFC shirts as part of a bigger deal to get the $$ for the Raptors. Thats why there was such a big delay in announcing the sponsorship as they were dotting the ii's in the bigger deal. Next year the TFC shirts will be a new sponsor. They are actively shopping right now. " " I have an inside source at MLSE and I asked if I should get a stadium jacket this year or wait until next year if the sponser is changing. I work for CIBC and I hate wearing BMO branded stuff when I'm trying to support the TFC.I have been told that the sponser will change, but he didn't say to who. " Kia seems like the consensus to take over, but nothing confirmed yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
