Kevin W. Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 If you think that it's just about Nike, then you aren't actually reading Uni Watch.It seems like it's mostly about Nike. I know he doesn't say much about Adidas because he hardly ever talks about soccer and Adidas' version of logo creep is most apparent there.

Gothamite Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 If it seems as though he talks mostly about Nike, that's because Nike is the big gorilla in the US. But he spends plenty of time discussing Reebok and the NHL and corporate ads wherever they crop up. He also compliments Nike on their good designs."Lukas hates Nike" is the popular meme, but doesn't have any basis in reality.That's amazing. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

Billy B Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I'd be getting that Ireland away for sure if they didn't have the ads on the replicas. That's a great looking shirt though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, I'd be getting it even with the ads, but Ireland's kit sponsor's logo is so goddamn dumb and bad looking on a football shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 That's amazing.Hey, keep your Milwaukee Bucks soccer crossover in the Concepts section.Wait, what? Oh goodness gracious that is nice. I hope this means no sponsor on the retail replicas.

Gothamite Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Man, the more I see that vertical stripe the more I love this shirt. Reminds me of my favorite US shirt:England had something similar with a single red stripe from the cross of St George.The creast-and-vertical-stripe look is so simple, yet so powerful. I love it.

Kevin W. Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Is that even a sponsor logo? That might just be a :censored:ty number font that someone decided to slap on the replica for some reason. I don't see why a replica of a national team kit would have a sponsor logo.

crashcarson15 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Maybe to make more money for the association?It's a sponsor logo. Eircom was their old sponsor; it looked MUCH better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
