Digby Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Aesthetics aside, I found it very hard to read the names and numbers on the MLS All Star telecast. Fan Style ShirtsShowcasing fan-made sports apparel by artists and designers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illini1 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Also, I believe Christie Rampone (#3) is wearing a shirt without the Nike swoosh.The Swooshes are heat pressed on. It probably just fell off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a few of the US player issued shirts and while the swooshes are pressed on, they're pretty secure. My theory is that her shirt just slipped through the cracks since these are already different than usual since they don't have the crest. We also know that as of kickoff, she was swooshless.@gdu: I'm not sure that that would have any effect. Players these days wear the standard shirt regardless of their personal sponsorships. The last time I have ever heard of a player getting an altered match jersey due to sponsorship was Johann Cruyff many years ago. Holland was sponsored by Adidas and he was a Puma guy so he got a custom two-stripe jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just a big coincidence that the one (or are there more) adidas player on the team happened to be the one to get the swooshless jersey.

tBBP Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I don't know about all of that...it wouldn't be the first time some funny business has occurred with Nike-branded Olympic teams with adidas-sponsored players.Remember 2008? See if you can spot the funny business in this photo... *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evanmaldonado Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Please let them use the text and not a giant Chevy logo.On the US women's uniforms, if they're supposed to be the same as the mens, why didn't they get their numbers updated to the navy-based dot matrix?

We also know that as of kickoff, she was swooshless.Note, too, that the player without the swoosh on her shirt, Rampone, still has swooshes on her socks in that photo and the swoosh on her shorts in this one. If there is some funny business going on, as Buc put it, it's kind of half-assed funny business.FAKE EDIT: Rampone had the swoosh on her shirt vs. France: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they switched from Audi to Chevrolet as their official vehicles starting this year.It'll be interesting to see what other changes we see for them.

Sodboy13 Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Each player gets a complimentary lap around the Top Gear test track.Also, a theory that General Motors may have had instant buyer's remorse on the deal. And what are the odds we see the Chevrolet wordmark with (I assume) Chinese translation on the front of Man U's shirts? I'm thinking quite high.
