Digby Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 I assume the light blue is supposed to be the teal of the Seattle flag? Not quite sure it gets it there, but on purely aesthetic grounds I love the entire kit, especially the pattern. The home is less successful for me. I've always felt that Sounders blue is a little too close tonally to their green -- feel like it might look nicer as more of a navy.

It's going to look great. 2 hours ago, hawk36 said: Well isn't as much Sounders to me. Too much blue. I thought I'd really like it and I do as far as a kit design but it just starts to vere ever so slightly away from what we've been used to. Not that big a deal but just my first gut reaction. I still have to disagree. They added just enough capital blue to create a good balance between the two. Reminds me of the good balance the original MLS-Sounders jerseys had!

eww7633 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Pitch black was my favorite kit the Sounders had (I own two jerseys), but that 3rd is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YELDARBfield Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Sounders have now posted the video on their site, as well as a neat sit down with adidas' Sr. Manager of Sports Marketing.

Reminds me of the good balance the original MLS-Sounders jerseys had! I can see that. It's just there is so much blue in the league it was nice that the Sounders had been leaning more heavily on the rave green. But nice sets overall. I do like them.

Looks better on the Sounders though. Maybe if the Hawks would have worn neon green socks instead of navy blue with the set, it would have looked better.

Sea blue is a very big constant here. Design Hovie Studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG_ThenNowForever Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 GUYS DID YOU KNOW WE'RE FROM SEATTLE? WE EVEN HAVE THE CITY SEAL!! That's how I read the new kits. That or the city has municipalized the soccer franchise, which would be an interesting revenue generation technique (we do have a city council member who suggested municipalizing Boeing's facilities, so it's not beyond the realm of possibility). The new rave kit will grow on me, but I read it as lateral at best. I'm hopeful the white is in the dustbin though; that set was just the worst. 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...

Digby Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Seattle wear their primaries 90% of the time anyway, I'm sure both the whites and the blues will be seen maybe four times a piece.

NYCdog Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 To unveil their new kit, Houston hired a graffiti artist to tag up a wall with the new kit. Now that's dope. Is this a first?!?
