upperV03 Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 Finishing off the Sounders, here is their third kit, which utilizes the colors of the NASL era teams.The kit is black from head to toe, and a large stripe is going across the chest, in the dark green and bright turquoise of the original Sounders. Bright turquoise shorts are also an option, creating a similar look to their current third kit. The crest is recolored, and the chest stripe is carried over onto the socks. Also, the secondary has been updated once again with the space needle being taken out. C&C welcomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wgeddes122 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Love it, but I think you could tweak a few things: make the adidas logos turquoise, make the MLS patches white or turquoise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upperV03 Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 MLS patches have now been changed to turquoise, while the adidas logos remain white for consistency's sake. Again, feel free to leave C&C, and thanks for the suggestion Wgeddes122. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcake Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Definitely prefer the all-black kit. Maybe the chest stripe could be tweaked to lime green, if you even have to use the chest stripe, seeing as it is kind of similar to your whitecaps concept, and similarities in Cascadia rivals' kits is something I don't think would go over too well.

upperV03 Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 The purpose of the kit was to introduce the colors of the original sounders on a modern kit, so I will not be changing it to lime green. And also, the chest stripe has many differences from the whitecaps', and the entire kit does not really bear many similarities Imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcake Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Good point. You have presented a very solid concept here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upperV03 Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 Any more C&C on the Sounders' third kit? I will be doing the Dynamo next, and should have the primary posted late tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcake Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Yes! Looking forward to the dynamo, not a fan of their current gradient design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaker52 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 My ultimate opinion is honestly that this idea missed the mark. I am not a fan of sky blue and dark green either. They only need one set of colors and they have a good one. I also see you have attempted many chest stripes. while they are different, you should try other things because they will look "strangely similar" on the pitch.

upperV03 Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 ^ Once again the colors are those of the original Sounders. I agree it is a strange combination, but many seattle fans are fond of those colors, as they are apart of the storied history of the club. And so far there are only two teams with a true chest stripe design, seattle and vancouver, and they happen to be very different. The only other club that I am planning on using a similar design is chicago, for obvious reasons. Also, Seattle and vancouver would never have to square off against eachother with their respective chest stripe designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upperV03 Posted April 9, 2015 Author Share Posted April 9, 2015 Back today with the primary kit for the Houston Dynamo. The kit is the traditional orange shirt/socks, and white shorts, while the shirt features a subtle yet striking sunburst design around the crest. Sticking with what they have done for their past few kits, the texas flag is featured as the jocktag. Feel free to leave C&C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wgeddes122 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 You could probably make the sun burst a little darker so it would be easier to see, other than that, good work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcake Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I like if a lot, just one suggestion: I would make the numbers on the shorts black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thecargeek Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I like the sun rays for the Houston Home kit, but by placing them in the centre were the sponsor is, it emphasis the sponsor itself, which isn't needed.Instead place the sun ray on the crest.

upperV03 Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 I'll post an updated primary tomorrow, and hopefully along with a secondary.*correction I will hopefully have them both posted on 4/11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upperV03 Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 Sorry for the layoff, but here I am with the secondary for the Dynamo. The shirt features a bold two stripe pattern going diagonally across the torso. The stripe is orange and light blue, as I wanted the light blue to be featured as more than just a subtle accent to further distinguish from the primary. Sponsor logos, along with the name/numbers are black to provide contrast with the brightness of the orange and blue, respectively. Also, the primary kit has been updated with the suggestions that were made. Feel free to leave C&C on either design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaker52 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Solid kit yet again. I like your idea with the stripes and I think the look fits them well. MUNCHEN LOWEN (WAFA) GULF SHORES OSPREYS (IBL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcake Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Very interesting, definitely more interesting than their current secondary. The blue stripe seems a little out of place imo, but it looks five. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
