That's how it looks to me The thin, gray lines in the background are not part of the sponsor, no. It’s some sort of graphic pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBeltz Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 3 hours ago, upperV03 said: Here’s a few teasers for the new Union secondary: Looks like the color scheme will probably be monochromatic white and navy, and the shirt will have some sort of tonal line graphic. The shirt also appears to have a navy collar (my guess would be v-neck), and raglan sleeves, meaning the Adidas stripes are down the sides. Part of me thinks its the Condivo template, but the lines don't look like they match the template design. Otherwise I'm a little upset that Union has dropped their middle stripe from their kits, it was really unique to them and would've looked great to create new ways to jazz it up (i.e. PSG) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upperV03 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 @PaleVermilion81, I figure you’ll be interested in this. Out of curiosity I took another look at the the latest teaser image for the new Minnesota secondary and messed around with the light settings, which revealed what looks to be a subtle graphic print: To me this looks like it could be the same pattern (or at least a very similar pattern) as the one on Atlanta’s current secondary: With that in mind, as well as the other teaser image we’ve seen, I went ahead and made this early stage mockup of what the Loons’ new kit could end up looking like: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seasaltvanilla Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 That would be just as stale and lifeless as the home kit. Boy the Loons went from being a premier NASL organization to one of the most poorly run MLS teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately for them they can take the time they need and not have to worry about being sent back down. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Philadelphia will looks miles better with the one color sponsor. Their Bimbo ad has always been brutal. I had a high school friend get drafted by them a few years ago. I had decided I'd get the jersey of whatever team he got picked by. But after seeing the Union and their Bimbo ad I rationalized with myself like hmmm well you know I guess he really was more of a high school acquaintance... and then I didn't get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upperV03 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Union secondary officially unveiled: I actually like this quite a bit, especially the graphic print. I will say though that I think the shirt would be even better if it featured the full-color crest and some subtle gold trim on the collar and cuffs. Also, the one-color Bimbo logo makes a huge difference here. That alone makes this one of their better secondaries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they did go this route, I'd hope they'd use black numbers and not gray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sicknick459 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I agree they all use a template to a point but that Celtic and our away are totally different in design terms other than the similar sleeves. For example Adidas took the Spain away pattern and now its on Orlando's and they will put it on another 20 teams kits. However with NB that front pattern is only on our away no other kit same with the Porto blue away they did its unique to them. It really isn't that hard to design unique kits for 23 teams! All you need to do is get 23 skilled local graphic designers from each teams area to design a pattern etc. They have teams of people in one of the biggest companies in the world with a year to design. If you gave me or anyone on here even a month to design 23 kits for $ we could all do it I would imagine. It comes down to laziness and greed. Templates are cheaper and world football has become so big is becoming more like a two horse race between Nike and Adidas as to who makes the most teams kits. It's a shame because they should realize that the best kits are unique such as the Nigeria one this last world cup people went nuts for it for good reason.

Yeah, it looks like it could end up being pretty nondescript, which would be dissapointing from them. Hopefully there’s some sort of graphic/pattern at least.

PrimalCookie Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I will never understand why SKC is so opposed to going with light blue and navy hoops. Is it such an obvious choice that they skip over it entirely while looking for “unique” options? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManuelCh Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 What's the deal with the teams not releasing propper renders of the jerseys with the presentations? It's so annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On your point about having the gold accents and crest, honestly I like it without more. The two-color style looks clean and not too busy. But I like this kit, it's solid.
