Digby Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 I'm so old I remember when the Sounders were fresh and new and seemingly set the standard for everything -- brand included!

First mistake is that the design is too complicated. The second one is that it is unproportional... that is the outer ring with the inner circle. I have done a couple MLS badge redesigns, and one for the sounders https://www.behance.net/gallery/73602839/Seattle-Sounders-FC-Rebranding What does it take a person to get hired?!? I want the sales person for that brand agency selling for me Haha No offense, but that redesign isn't any better. Overly complicated combining both a shield and a roundel in one. Not to mention I see at least 5 different line weights in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the Sounders have one of the worst logos in the MLS so maybe this is to be expected? Too bad. We can agree on that! Maybe a badge refresh was in order with the Ziluly announcement. Plus it's been ten years in MLS, right? Too bad. Sounders are still a top organization when it comes to building a team, but they may just not be as cool anymore. I'm enjoying all of the 2019 submiminated print shirts. It's a little corny, but I think they're cool. 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...

upperV03 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Not a huge fan of that pattern, but it won’t be super noticeable in games and at least it’s a a bespoke design rather than another recycled one. I also like the gray shirts as a change of pace for them, especially if they actually do wear red shorts and/or socks with them. Plus, even though this new kit is probably technically considered their “primary”, they’ll likely just use the reds as the de facto primaries like they did last season.

Concept is okay, but the execution is really bad. I went ahead and made a quick "alternate universe" concept for the Tacoma Defiance based on the scenario of the Rainiers rebranding as the Defiance instead of S2.

njdevs7 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Not bad. Obviously the Reds are our primary's moving forward, so I like this for a change kit. The camo pattern is a little weird but it wont be noticeable from distance. Still curious to see what the deal is with the shorts/socks though. As of now we have 2 pairs of red shorts/socks. One with white trim and one with grey trim. Surely we will have a pair of grey shorts/socks that weren't released today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is words that have a texture applied to them that run from the waist to the chest. The 2 on the front that are most visible are FIGHT and PASSION.

Digby Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 "The Glitch Kit"! Fascinating. Seems like the last two years, RBNY especially has gone out of their way to avoid designating their kits as home/away or primary/secondary.

xbhaskarx Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Nashville MLS rebrand coming Feb 20th? Here's what they're currently using in USL: I think only minor changes are needed... The year being straight text in a curved circle looks awkward. I'd go with Nashville around the top, Soccer Club around the bottom, no year. Aside from that, the white circle is a bit too large relative to the inside circle. Their primary kit better have a "six string sash" across the chest, that is just too obvious... although with those colors and a sash they're going to look like the LA Galaxy. If Atlanta United are nicknamed the Five Stripes, does that make Nashville the Six Strings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, be forewarned... the following have all been registered with the United States Patent and Trademark office:Nashville Beat Nashville Groove Nashville Honky Tonkers Nashville Vibe Nashville Notes Said word marks have been registered in relation to goods and services including "Entertainment services, namely, soccer exhibitions rendered live in a stadium, and through the media of television, radio and via the internet; Organization of soccer games; Organizing and conducting athletic competitions in the field of soccer; Organizing sporting events, namely soccer games; Organizing, conducting and operating soccer tournaments".

Make of this what you will. Candidates for an MLS Nashville team name? A series of feints meant to draw our attention away from the actual name of the team? Simply a coincidence? Only time will tell.

MJWalker45 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I'm surprised to not see too many leaks for Columbus's jersey. I'm hoping to see the checkerboard appear in some fashion since it's on the socks this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
