2011-12 soccer kits

same here. Can't wait to buy the hoops. Also, can't believe we haven't seen any official promo shots of either of the new US kits.

same here.

In other Nike news, these are AMAZING, as always with the All Blacks:

...too bad their team isnt as good as they look.

those would look solid on a rugby pitch

My question is, do they look like the picture on the left, or the one on the right? The one on the left is horridly overdone, and the one on the right is quite classy and restrained. The success of this jersey is all in a few clicks of the opacity meter.

I am guessing it looks more like the one on the right. Nike tend to light promo shots, like the one on the left, to accentuate the design elements of the shirt.

That's Spain's new second kit. Thoughts?

Don't like anything about them.

Yikes, those are a mess. Adidas always tries to combine too many desing elements into one shirt.

FC Dallas revealed, 10 days before the season. Better late than never.

The big rumor was that they were very close to a sponsorship deal which is why the waited for the last minute. The sponsorship deal fell through.

Yeesh...no, not very good at all. Looks like something someone would think was cool and hip and modern five years ago.

[Foxxtrot44]

Hmm...I guess those Spain kits are okay. Coulda been better, coulda been worse. Although, I kinda dig the socks...

The kits themselves are pretty snazzy-nice use of non-traditional color pairings.

They need to give them sock stripes back to the Kansas City Chiefs, though.

Exactly.

The worst part is, apparently that's not black. It's light blue and brown.

That actually makes me like it a little more.

I don't know how a team with red, white, and blue can consistently look so bad. Too many stripes maybe? Tone it down a bit, like Newcastle did, and they'd have a chance.

Except what Newcastle and Puma did was bad. They took a classic look and weakened it. The Toon is a black-and-white-striped shirt, not just two stripes. Newcastle hasn't worn anything other than the black-and-white stripes since the 19th century.

Granted, I'm not up to date on the history of the look. I just think this looks much stronger, graphically, than the multi-stripe looks. Would be a good inspiration for Dallas.

The 11/12 Newcastle shirt is terrible.

[Kevin W.]

Yes it is.

Different tastes I guess. I just find this one to be superior but everyone can have their own opinion.

It's a nice shirt, I like it, but I understand how this just isn't a shirt Newcastle should be wearing. Perhaps on any other team, this would be a solid shirt.
