Another possible way is to trace the center line of each glyph with the Pen Tool, then defining the width of the line in a larger weight. When you have the maximum weight, you can convert the linework to outline, then you fix the details of the letters and the ligatures. The image spoilered below is a quick, shoddy try of doing this. I'm not really that close to the result, but it's a start.

The designs kind of lack uniqueness. It reminds me of those generic fan jerseys (maybe because of the "oversized" template), an "one-size-fits-all" approach that disregard individual club culture and traditions. For example, even if Real Madrid usually goes with black as accent colour on its jerseys here and there, the traditional accent colours of the team are gold and purple (most recently blue). Some jerseys have problems with contrast, like Palmeiras one. Those green numbers would be barely readable. Same for the blue numbers in Yokohama. Since the main colour in the jersey is blue, it gets a little hard to see, even if it's over the stripes. Gets quite cluttered. Still on contrast, you have some cases of yellow over white or white over yellow (namely Boca Juniors, Juventus, Lyon and Sporting). At a distance, it could be a problem to read too. A personal nitpick is that names on back are very small, almost unreadable. NFL had enlarged it over the last decades, not reduced.

The identity is strong, is consistent, however, the main logo seems empty, looks like a secondary logo or something. IMHO, MLS isn't still that strong in world scenario to afford for a team that doesn't have the name in their logo. People outside US will surely question: What team is this? Will surely wait for the jersey to give a final opinion.

It would be three topics in concepts forum, all about the same theme, but with years of difference. Could I send you a PM?

No answers?

Okay, starting with the nitpick. Name below the logo should be BRASIL, with an S. We haven't used Brazil (with Z) in Portuguese language since 1942. Loved the southern cross in the back of the shirt, makes a nice reference to 1952 olympic jerseys, the first yellow ones. For the home kit, I like the amount of light blue, it's a shame that light blue is underused, after all, it was the blue in the 1970s. I believe you could have even the letters and numbers in blue, for extra boldness, since your pattern in the front is quite plain. The yoke is a little pointless just as a line, I'd add some detail on it, maybe some text or detail related to Brazilian culture and football. For the away, I miss green. After the last Nike away kits, I'm really into the Canucks look around here. I'm not sure this is supposed to be a polo jersey, and I don't think the texture matches the idea if this is a polo. If that's it. I'd maybe rework it, to make the collar more prominent. Also, the stars above the logo should be yellow, they look almost invisible in the blue.

Is possible to get a series of threads by the same user merged on request?

I don't see where my words are offensive. I mean, I used quote marks and everything properly, didn't used any kind of slur, didn't offend the OP, didn't troll, didn't used any kind of 5h1tposting or low-quality meme. I pointed what I noted as problems, explained why and even encouraged OP to address the problems, something it has been done by OP in a very nice way. The numbers are still too big for my taste (even for NBA standards), but that's a personal opinion.

The front numbers are maybe a little too big for my taste. The uniforms also look very cheap without the sponsors, national federations logos as well as FIBA and World Cup Badges. They look something "generic", "makeshift", maybe "unlicensed", like those Chinese rip-offs. If you address these points, I think your concepts will look way better.

Totally unrelated to the concept, that is pretty nice, but shouldn't it be XL, like in that SuperBowl?

No ill intent. I'd encourage you to research more about football in other nations that are not in the MLS system. A good starting point is the excellent PascalHugo's series of European Football, especially the Spanish League, whose teams usually inspire Latin-American teams.

As a football jersey purist, I must admit I'm appalled and somewhat disgusted with most of these designs. This is for football the equivalent of white pants in hockey. Seems like some US-based tycoon that shows a complete disregard for local football tradition is buying teams along North and Central America into a "franchise-based league". There's no :censored:ing way clubs in Costa Rica and Cuba would look that much "United-Statesian" (like they say in Spanish, estadounidense). In some logos, the use of fonts is completely brainless. Some applications would be completely impossible, like that highly detailed Ottawa skyline. However, as an exploratory project of design, this is nice.

Apart from Ajax with the saltires, most of them are quite generic. There's a blatant lack of "deep work and research". Especially in the striped ones. The Inter or Newcastle stripes would work nicely with Atleti and vice-versa, judging by the type of generic uninspired crap made by Nike to its football teams. But considering the tool you're using, this is pretty decent.

The series is quite nice. On a personal preference, I think you could tone down the presentation. It's a little bit too colorful and overcrowded.
