So we will see them next year. But the new jerseys tor 2021 I don't believe will have the stripes. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They almost look good on Cincy, because they kept it as simple as possible. Everyone else looks like trash. It’s funny to me how Adidas has a bad cycle of designs when Nike has a good one, and vice versa. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You'd hope so, but they were also designed to celebrate the league's big 25th year. Given that MLS has been mostly invisible this season, it might make sense to do a 25th anniversary of the first season next year, and try the whole thing again. Also, wear a mask and maybe we can watch those games in person in the spring. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MJWalker45 5,791 Posted October 1, 2020 https://www.footyheadlines.com/2020/09/mls-all-star-2020-kit.html This was supposed to be the All Star jersey. MLS needs to burn that adidas contract. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These feel like a very timid attempt. Throw in the horrible collar and it resulted in a disaster. They should've gone all in with giant stripes and paired that with a modern version of 90s style shadow block numbers. And that all star jersey...woof. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

QCS 2,613 Posted November 18, 2020 They'd look much better if they didn't have those awful Adidas stripes. No need for them to be white. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Digby 6,612 Posted November 18, 2020 That's pretty sharp! I love that shade of green they're using, love that stripes aren't completely dead in MLS, and that their inaugural kit is a nice simple base on which to build for changes in the future. Going to assume not many daytime home games, though. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In his follow-up tweet, Paul Tenorio gives credit to Fire owner Joe Mansueto for admitting they got it wrong and eating the cost. I guess I can see that point, but it's not like the general negative reaction to this logo wasn't immediate. It was reviled from the jump. Maybe this has more to do with MLS licensing and trademark issues, but the USL's Louisville club did it right — released a new logo, pulled it immediately (without it ever taking the field) after receiving overwhelmingly negative feedback, and waited a year to do it right. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
njdevs7 903 Posted November 18, 2020 Austin looks nice. Great choice with the green/black stripes. A very unique look that they can own. The white stripes are a little out of place, but that's OK. There will be many versions of this home kit to come in the future. Props to Chicago for admitting they messed up. Hopefully they go back and just update their original logo....and wear RED kits with a white chest stripe. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I recall being part of a discussion earlier this year where it was mentioned this might happen but, IIFC, we all agreed that it was not likely. I mean kudos to the team for trying to right a wrong but why change it all? I guess that's the Fire's motto now "Chicago Fire, we keep righting our wrongs". 1 hour ago, JOEYxFRESCO said: Austin FC jersey dropped. I like them a lot I hate everything Austin but I must admit, this is actually a nice look. Would be even better if the adidas stripes weren't white (or there at all) but still, nice. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like them a lot I disappointed the shirt isn't all green, as that's an absolutely gorgeous shade of it. However, still looks pretty nice. The area around the sleeves is strange - should've just cut off the little bit of green there. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
