The 2011 Houston Dynamo jersey keeps the team's trademark orange color and features a design similar to the Netherlands kits from the late 80s and early 90s when Adidas designed the Brilliant Orange's kits.

The pattern is unique to the Dynamo and no other Major League Soccer team currently has a shirt with a similar pattern and design. Another new feature of the jersey is the long-rumored white collar, another throwback to soccer jerseys from the past. Also, the baby blue color, a feature of the current home and away jerseys has been reduced to a minimum amount and is only located on the piping on the edges of the shirt.

Unconfirmed sources state that the white away kit will feature a similar design but in a white colorway and will have orange piping instead of blue piping.

Another interesting component of the leaked kit is the presence of what appears to be the Dynamo's new shirt sponsor, Greenstar Recycling. Greenstar Recycling is a fourth-generation family owner waste management and recycling company headquartered in Houston. Calls made to Greenstar to confirm their sponsorship deal were not returned at the time of this article.

Love it or hate it, you have to hand it to the Dynamo for doing something different and going with a new and unique jersey design. What are your thoughts on the jersey design? Do you love it or hate it?

Yikes. It looks worse now. I liked the powder blue/Oilers connection. I would have rather them kept it somehow.

Needs more blue. Houston is an orange and blue team in my opinion, and it looks out of place without it.

Need more blue, eh?!? How's this...

[aawagner011]

Haha I was actually thinking the opposite. Orange shirt with blue shoulders with the white striping.

Very 90s AYSO-ish.

Houston loves its energy companies.

Love them...anything to break up these boring MLS kits.

I've been told the print is not as dark/evident as shown in the picture.

Interested to see them unveiled.

All of the jersey's are being leaked on the Dynamo's photo page using the MLS iPhone Match Day App. And it has leaked another jersey, with another sponsor ...I'm not certain whats real & what isn't.

FYI - The Dynamo will be unveiling their jersey at an event at 2pm CST (in the next few minutes)

The event is available for streaming via HoustonDynamo.com.

This is what you'll see... http://plixi.com/p/61554830

I won't be entirely sure until I see it on a player, but I kinda dig it.

Now, if MLS would just take the flag patch off of their jerseys. It's pointless.

Still can't wait to see these in action...finally some unique designs in the MLS

Greenstar payed 12.7 million for the kit sponsorship.

I like it a lot, it's a great color combination and I digg the collar.

Reminds me a bit of some older Mexican Nats team ones, where they also had a very visible watermark.

Those look really good.

I've said it before I really hate how Adidas has to put the "three stripes" on every soccer uniform they make. It looks worse when they hold the rights to an entire league's unis and thus every team has them.

I also don't like MLS' number font.

As for these uniforms specifically I give it a meh.
