iowahoo Posted June 21, 2006 Author Share Posted June 21, 2006 In an odd unique, retro looking sort of way I kind of like them. Not exactly sure why, kind of reminds me of when I used to try and draw sports figures on my Etch-A-Sketch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iowahoo Posted June 21, 2006 Author Share Posted June 21, 2006 What are those flags underneath the KNVB logo? The one on the left is a dutch flag and the other is the flag of the Ivory Coast.It is customary in soccer to add an embroidery to the shirt for the specific high profile match, usually says soemthing like:Netherlands v Argentina21 June 2006World CupInstead they apperantly have chosen to put the two countries flags on, which is pretty cool.

WideRight Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 The Dutch unis get my vote for ugliest in the Cup. I usually love the Dutch kits, with orange jerseys and white shorts, but the all Orange look is horrible, and those dark letters look cheap and amateur. Someone needs to tell Nike that Holland is not Syracuse. Orange and white, not orange and orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone needs to tell Nike that Holland is not Syracuse. Orange and white, not orange and orange. I think you hit the nail on the head...they are very Syracuse looking. The real dutch orange is much less orange-red and more orange-yellow. I don't mind the numbers I just mind the hue of the orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintsfan Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I am not certain, but I think the official strip is orange shirts and white shorts, with retro blue socks. I think they have had to vchange the shorts in one or two games because of a clash with other teams shorts, and have also changed the socks in that case. I could be wrong on all of that however! They are playing in all Orange against Argentina can't see what the clash is there? 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VC// Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Looks good to me.It just looks like a normal number nine that is sort of weird looking because of the way the jersey is wrinkled or whatever. LETS GO PENGUINS! 5x Stanley Cup Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
