I think the navy allows what little of the the orange and royal blue to pop a more than a royal blue base would. I do think they should go back to a royal blue base next time they do a blue jersey.

The pattern isn’t the most creative or anything, but I like the heavy use of that dark grey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also disappointed that they didn't keep using the pinstripes on the back of the shirt. They wouldn't screw up the numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I'm predisposed to prefer royal over navy, but in this case, I think FCC did the right thing. The royal pops more on a navy background than navy does on royal. It gives it almost a "Tron" vibe it wouldn't otherwise have. Now if MLS allowed league-wide third jerseys, you could have the best of all worlds. That Toronto FC shirt seems just as uninspired as the past two home Sounders FC shirts. Yeah, it's a pattern.

I'm also disappointed that they didn't keep using the pinstripes on the back of the shirt. They wouldn't screw up the numbers. In their press release they say that the shorts are navy, unfortunately. No mention of white or orange alternate shorts, either. As for the back of the shirt, yeah, it would’ve been nice to see the pinstripes continue. Unfortunately the MLS seems to be pretty strict about solid backs (or at least solid back panels), with the only recent exception being Vancouver’s hooped shirt. There are several examples of shirts that could’ve and should’ve had designs continue on the back, like Atlanta’s first two primaries, Portland’s hooped primaries and new half/half look, and now this new Cincy shirt. Seems as though the MLS is pretty staunch in requiring the solid backs, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hated last year's at first, but eventually grew fond of them when I saw how they looked in action and I purchased one when they were discounted at Dick's. My biggest issue was the massive Adidas stripe on the shoulder. These are super sharp. I love how royal, navy, and orange look together and hope the team keeps using those three colors together for years to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny you should say that because I legitimately think the new Cincy primary would work better as an NYCFC secondary kit (with the royal pinstripes changed to sky blue)...

upperV03 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I actually like that Chicago secondary quite a bit, even though it’s mainly white. Pretty smart design and should be able to be carried over to next year with just a simple crest swap. The primary is fine, nothing special. Still don’t like the navy, and the crest still sucks, but I like the cuffs. It’ll do the job until they get a new primary (which will hopefully be red) with the new crest next year.

I so recognized that template that it always just felt like they were wearing a template. I like it a hell of of a lot more than this though.

It’s fine. EDIT: Ok the away isn’t a old template but quasi-custom design. It definitely looks nicer at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
