GeauxColonels Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Absolutely beautiful. I really like the patterns you implemented on the hoops and stripes. It's a classy detail without being overwhelming. On the home/primary kit, is that yellow AND red stripes down the side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysox Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 Yep, Adidas did stripes down there for the World Cup, so i ran with it. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VictoriaGooner Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Excellent job yet again Mike on Suriname. The crest is nicely done, the use of the Argentina sublimated hoops on the home kit, and the wine and yellow striped clash kits are a thing of beauty mate. That definitely sets Suriname apart from the rest of the FAs in CONCACAF. One of the best concepts behind Canada and Jamaica.

jaker52 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Pretty nice. My only issue is that the stripe pattern is different then what it shows on the actual (I opened it and looked). It also looks like a nike kit stuck on an Adidas template MUNCHEN LOWEN (WAFA) GULF SHORES OSPREYS (IBL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moser316 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 I have only one complaint: you should have kept COPA as the kit manufacturer and ditched the Adidas template altogether. The color scheme and balance are great on these, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattb6 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 I really like Suriname's kits, but my only problem is the crest looks pretty similar to the current US crest. Not sure if that's good or bad, but it seems to work for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GriffinM6 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 It looks nice, but why are you doing a team in South America? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyk33 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 It looks nice, but why are you doing a team in South America?Because Suriname is a part of CONCACAF even though it is in South America along with Guyana & French Guiana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysox Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 GuatemalaSo for Guatemala, I wanted to go super classy, and try to start a trend with the team. That's why I took light blue and run with it. The logo takes some cues from the Australia world cup logo. I put a wreath around a Resplendent Quetzal, both are found on the crest of the country. The stylized bird is on the current crest of Guatemala. I made a few modifications to make it more bird like. Then I put the federation name and the year it was established underneath. I wanted to do something that looked like it was created years ago. Guatemala has sashes on both jerseys today, and I thought that that could become CONCACAF's version of the famous Argentina kits. I switched them to Umbro, and I took the font from the England 2010 World Cup jersey. The current home is monochrome royal blue, but I thought light blue and navy looked great together. I was excited to post this because it's one of my cleanest. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbannon92 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Guatemala is really clean, and the crest is very nice. However, "FEDEFUT GUATEMALA" seems a little cramped where it is. Have you tried putting it above the wreath/bird? I think it would fit within the crest better and balance it more.

marble21 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Something is bothering me about the number being higher than the umbro logo on the front. Usually it is the other way around. Doesn't mean you have to change it of course, just seems off to me. UBI FIDES IBI LUX ET ROBUR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried putting it above the wreath/bird? I think it would fit within the crest better and balance it more.I agree. I think the crest would be balanced more if you switched the placement of the words and the wreath/quetzal. (By the way, I love that you included the quetzal in the crest.) I also really like the sashes on the kits. Great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliverP Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 What they said ^^ oh and I'm really emphasizing on the change of place of the number and the Umbro logo. But the sashes are a great look and they've always been a great look. Also the duble blue is a can't miss. Overall, its great.

Guest Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 I'll echo mbannon and suggest a little change to the crest as it looks cramped. What about moving the team name to the top, but keep the year at the bottom of the crest, but the bird in the middle, and use the wreath on the outside of the shield? I like the simplicity of the kits, I think you nailed it. @Jaker55: This is why you don't get good C&C on your designs lol. While it may not be eye-catching or modern, it's still a great crisp design. You can never go wrong with a sash kit. Plus Mike wanted this to be a simple classy design. So I think he achieved his goal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBolt3 Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 I like what you've done with these.(especially Jamaica) Not all your designs are over the top, but fits with the team, and that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorinK92 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I really like what you did with the Guate concept. Nice job cleaning up the lines of the quetzal and putting the entire logo into a cohesive identifiable shield-shaped crest. Also kudos on making the blue uniform between the two kits.However, the quetzal the wreathes and the text do seem awkward together. Maybe try bringing the bottom of the wreaths down on either side of the word Fedefut, and keeping the quetzal in the centre of the wreaths. It might also help while doing this to shrink the Fedefut. I'm just going off of a rough image in my mind, mind you, but it's at least what I would try.Also, if you wanted to clean it up a little and have the text not so cramped there, just put Guate instead of the full name. It's how the country commonly refers to itself and is on the current crest right now. That along with making the Fedefut smaller would clear out a lot of space.Because apart from the awkwardness of the text, I think it's a major update for the country, and a sweet look for anyone. It just could stand to be a little cleaner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
