guest23 1,493 Posted January 26, 2012 Oh dear...SO many things wrong with this team's identity:1. Using a Spanish word in the club's name whilst residing in the state of Utah2. Ripping off Real Madrid's "Real" and the fact that the United States has never had a monarch based government.3. Ripping off Barca's colors.4. Combining the name and colors of Spain's two most storied clubs who happen to be fierce rivals.It's dumb moves like this (and shoddy international play) that prevents us pro soccer from gaining credibility. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlazerBlaze 196 Posted January 26, 2012 Yay!!! The Thrashers are back!!!!!! Oh wait, what, this is a soccer club? Dang it I got my hopes up...Seriously though, I love the homes. Great execution through and through. The clash kit though...ehhh...something is off for me. The blue stripe should be continued on the shorts at least. And the red tri-stripes look purple. Should of gone with a yellow clash. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those colors look nothing like Barcelona's, they were pretty much copying the Spanish national team uniforms when they came into the league. Not really seeing how they added Barcelona's name into their identity either 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The fire away shirt was better, and I think the Chivas shirt is really classy. The San Jose jerseys are really nice which is surprising because it seems like a pretty generic design. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJM 147 Posted January 27, 2012 The disappointment continues...will Puma ever get Newcastle right? I realize they do not have the updated sponsor (Virgin Money) but I'm sure it'll get added to this. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's why its better then every other over-designed and fugly kit Adidas designed for the MLS this year, you can't screw up generic. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saintsfan 21 Posted January 27, 2012 The disappointment continues...will Puma ever get Newcastle right? I realize they do not have the updated sponsor (Virgin Money) but I'm sure it'll get added to this.I am not convinced those are anything more than fakes or rejected mock ups from the development process. What is interesting is from next year Newcastle will be Pums's biggest EPL client, interesting to see what that means in terms of development. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saintsfan 21 Posted January 27, 2012 2. Ripping off Real Madrid's "Real" and the fact that the United States has never had a monarch based government.Plenty of US sports franchises, at all levels, use royal imagery. Kings, Royals, Monarchs. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I realize they do not have the updated sponsor (Virgin Money) but I'm sure it'll get added to this.Would be surprised if these were real. Assuming the top is the home (black and white) and the bottom left is the away (black and white) there would never be a situation where they would wear the away shirt surely? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
