Djruggs Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 The MLS often has very bland kits, so I decided to take a stab at redesigning them. Starting with NYRB and NYCFC. I'm starting with these teams because I got the idea for this by trying to fix their rivalry game. NYRB New York's RedBull team is the only one in the system that doesn't have matching kits, and recently they unveiled a decent home kit, but it wasn't perfect. I changed their lines to the outline of the George Washington Bridge that connects New Jersey and New York since the RedBulls play in Newark. Home Away Third/Rivalry NYCFC For NYCFC I wanted to incorporate aspects of the New York City such as their flag, and pinstripes as an homage to the Yankees.

Digby Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Apart from the asymmetric trim elements, that NYCFC third is just about perfect. Fan Style ShirtsShowcasing fan-made sports apparel by artists and designers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joob Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Love the NYRB set, especially the blue and yellow kit, looks really sharp! Pin strips for NYCFC as a tribute to the Yankees is a nice touch I think too. Also can I ask: what mockup template are you using? www.juliandodaro.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave-Bird 08 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 The third kit for NYC is so smart, yet subtle. There's more than one way to mock the rail system on a jersey and the two stripe approach was the classy way to go. As far as Red Bulls, I'd love to see them drop the Red Bulls off the back of the jersey...and I don't think the bridge design adds anything to the set. I'd remove that and let the chest logo, which is unique to MLS, do the work there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polskan Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I really don't like RBNY's kits this year but your version is really great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Djruggs Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Up next is the Philadelphia Union. They have a pretty iconic look for such a new team, so this is just a little bit of house keeping. Home Away Third Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djruggs Posted February 23, 2017 Author Share Posted February 23, 2017 I would love to get more C&C in here, but up next is Atlanta United FC. I thought their inaugural kits were on the right track, but not quite there, so this is what I came up with.

McTuna Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I really love the use of the GW bridge on the Red Bull's kit. It looks great and it has meaning behind it, and really adds to the kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weapon X Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Atlanta looks amazing, I love how you managed to make a gold colored kit look great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weapon X Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 The only thing I would maybe do to change them is add cuff stripes to the gold alt like you did to the away jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahowe6464 Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 All these kits so far have been great, especially NYCFC's third, the asymmetry works pretty well there. Excited for New England Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djruggs Posted February 26, 2017 Author Share Posted February 26, 2017 Up next is the Chicago Fire. Home kit is a throwback, and the away kit is based off the Chicago flag Home Away Third Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahowe6464 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 The secondary is outstanding. Love the sash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digby Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Agreed! Navy base, and light blue/red combos are both schemes I'd like to see the Fire use. One critique: I think you're squishing the numbers to be a bit too narrow.

Djruggs Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 Next up is the New England Revolution, and I don't think I really need to explain my motivation for the kits. Home Away Third Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahowe6464 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Revs look great. We just really need a new crest is all... By the way, is the home meant to look like an overcoat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZionEagle Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Genius homage to the old New England flag in the third kit. All of these look great, no complaints from me "Winners never quit, and quitters never win." ~Vince Lombardi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
