I was looking at EBay and can anyone explain this jersey?

Oh yeah, I forgot they did kelly green for the Portland third kit, which I think will be back this year.

Meanwhile, here's another jersey that could use bespoke colors -- Colorado Rapids third would look a lot better with yellow numbers instead of white here, it's the only spot of white on the whole kit.

That one doesn't bother me, since the numbers are the only thing I can read on that awful, muddy kit.

It's a fan/ cheap alternative to buying actual team gear. MLS authorized these when adidas wasn't the sole kit provider.

SKC third leak

[Gothamite]

Nice.

[MJWalker45]

The primary should have used that same design with light blue replacing navy.

[Coheed]

Now that is awesome.

[Sodboy13]

ooh dat fancy

[Billy B]

Those are awesome.

[Jarred Revolver]

Whitecaps with argyle and now SKC.

Nice kit though

And this is why I hate sublimated patterns in uniforms. Despite knowing it's there and actively looking for it, the state flag pattern in Colorado's jersey are still pretty much invisible.

SKC third leak

I really like this. Was thinking of getting a long sleeved version of the primary, but may go with this instead.

It looks black to me

Its just there to make fans by the authentic jersey instead of saving money and buying the replica.

That SKC third is exceptional. More argyle, please!

Looking at those pictures, I think the sweat from the players is what makes it hard to see the sublimated pattern on the jersey. It looked pretty clear in the unveiling pictures when the players were just standing around. I'm still not a big fan of those jersey, I think they would be a lot better if the flag design on the front was in color.

Agreed... wonder if they kept it tonal just in case they finally get a shirt sponsor mid-season.

Wow, that KC shirt is excellent. A shame we'll be seeing the terrible primary so much.

Maybe so. My problem with sublimated patterns is that they're either almost invisible and therefore pointless, or they're too noticeable and look tacky. Just seems better to never put it there in the first place.

I know what you mean. Montreal's primary has a great sublimated cross made up of fleur-de-lys, but I always forget its there because you can never see it. In the end their kits just look plain and boring.

The Sporting 3rd also looks good in that photo because you can't see the stupid adidas stripes. It does look pretty classy, I like how the Ivy Funds is just a font and doesn't have a logo to compete with the SKC logo like on the home kit. Never bought two SKC/Wiz kits in one year but I might just have to this season. Afters years of boring snoozers I like what they have done this season although I wish they would use the homes exclusively with the indigo shorts, I think they look a 1000% better...the light shorts is way too much Sporting Blue for my taste.
