FinsUp1214 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I don’t mind centered crests in general; In fact, when done right, I think it can look really good. That Czech one isn’t done right, though. The crest looks a bit too big, and the Puma logo being placed to the left of it forces (I imagine) the numbers to the right, which would cause not only horizontal clutter but likely elements of different sizes occupying the same plane. And even if the numbers are below the crest, that’s probably worse as it’d leave an awkward blank space to the right of the crest. All in all, if you’re going to center the crest, you have to either stack manufacturer-crest-numbers vertically down the middle or form a “V” like Senegal did with the elements you have. It doesn’t quite come out right any other way, in my opinion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJWalker45 Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 My problem with that Czech Republic shirt is, where will the numbers go? If it were like the jersey on the left hand side with no numbers up front it'd be a good look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digby Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 None of these make a solid case for women's teams to have different kit sets than the men's teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are just the precursor for the World Cup uniforms, which will use a new template. I see this as Nike taking a page from their work with US Soccer and they'll start creating random third kits for more teams in the future.

I've heard rumblings that Nike didn't expect Canada to qualify so they didn't get started on new kits, and now it's too late. I've emailed Canada Soccer's media people, but never got a reply.

I've seen a few other leaks/rumours of their shirts with stripes that don't go all the way up to the shoulders or down to the hems. Most notable one was AC Milan.

The Iceland kits looks incomplete, like they forgot to remove the block of dark color or do anything with it... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digby Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 IDK, to me they all look like ordering jerseys from some rec-league wholesaler, and you want a striped kit but there's only a limited rectangular chest area on which they'll allow printing. Just doesn't look right to me at the international level! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
