Gothamite Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Honestly, the Red Bulls got it right the first time. Primary: Secondary: They should have built on this - change the particulars every two years, but keep the same basic red/white/red and white/red/white schemes. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

upperV03 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Based on the DCU Team Store’s header image on Twitter, it’s possible that their new home kit could include some thin tonal hoops: They also said yesterday to expect some teasers in the next couple weeks: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upperV03 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Also, the Crew posted this teaser on Twitter and Instagram: And posted this on their Instagram story: Can’t really make out much except for the black base color, and it looks like the Adidas stripes might be on the sides.

Unless it's the lighting or poor filtering, almost seems like the cuffs on the sleeves are yellow 'til about half way up the sleeve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG_ThenNowForever Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I know this is kind of obvious, but it looks more like an Acura ad than a soccer shirt. Anyone else a member of the MLS Soccer Fan council? They send periodic surveys asking for feedback about soccer fandom habits, whether that's viewing, going to games and comparison to other sports and soccer leagues. Yesterday I got a survey about jerseys, including asking what factors have compelled me to buy one. One of the options was something like "system of design," which was all of the marketing talking Adidas and Nike put on their uniforms. I ranked that low. (I ranked price high, especially relative to other American sports leagues.) I don't know that I've really seen much come directly from those fan surveys, but maybe there are some changes to come in jersey sales and production. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned price point. I also mentioned how the Dynamo have been using standard templates and not "custom" designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 That's good to note. A new MLS replica is $85, which seems decent enough. Though if you wait, like until now, you can find sales for $60 (I kind of want but won't get that ATLUTD road grey). Adidas shouldn't want to devalue its product, but supplying budget sports gear is a pretty good niche. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The non-sale price for adults I always see is $119 (Fanatics, MLS Store). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digby Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Believe the going rate is $85 for replica, $120 for authentic. Plus $30 for a name and number on the back. (Which all seems quite a bit steeper than just a couple years ago.)

upperV03 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Here’s a look at the full Crew kit: And the details of the kit: The embossed checkerboard pattern is hardly visible at all, much less so than the last black kit. Overall this is far too plain for them, and even though this design was most likely settled on way before the plan to move the team was announced, it definitely does have a sort of ironic funeral vibe.

MNUFC doesn't have the replica version, only the authentic, so I didn't know this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since some reports say they planned the move early last spring to as much 3 years ago, not likely. I have my tinfoil hat on for this, but I feel like this is intended to sell horribly to further prove fans don't want the team in Columbus.

Yeah, it’s a similar treatment with the tonal stripes. Although if the new DCU primary does have subtle hoops like that what’s shown in that header image, it seems likely that they’d cover the entire front of the jersey, rather than just a small portion like the sash on the Blazers’ red jerseys. I could see them going with a chest band made up of the thin hoops, but it seems more likely that they’d cover the entire front of the jersey.
