My Take On The Jerseys

[Drainyoo]

Seeing all the marketing, and other designed elements, it's easy to say that the sky blue will be their primary color. I would bet good money that the home jersey is all sky blue, or at least partial.

On a side note, just got a call from NYCFC about my season tickets, and I mentioned to the account executive that I designed some jerseys. He asked me to send them to him, and that he will pass them around. Maybe we influence the jerseys a little. He also mentioned that the main hold-up for the jersey reveal is the sponsor. They're still working through that.

I wouldn't want a jersey that oversaturated. Sometimes, simple is good

I hope the orange is used SPARINGLY.

Too much orange (mixed with navy blue) and you start being associated with the Mets (the Yankees wouldn't like that) or worse, the Knicks.

I think MCFC will brand NYCFC much like they did Melbourne City.

Blue and orange are cursed colors in NYC.

Honestly wouldn't be entirely upset if NYC jersey's looked similar.

It's worth mentioning that the only reason that Melbourne City got the white kit with the stripes (incidentally Manchester City's third kit from the previous season) was that the Australian FA rejected their application to use an all sky blue kit.

Give me orange adidas trim for the shorts and jersey!

Not for me TBH...

hmmm

Went ahead and made a full set, I have too much time on my hands.

That looks nice. I just wouldn't emphasize the orange due to the Mets.

Orange represents New York. I think it's going to be in each of the uniforms. They made a point to put it in the badge.

I definitely love the orange socks! It would be giving the kit a destinctive feature which would be unique the world over. And it would also be practical as it is a signal color you can spot well from the distance. So you could actually make out the legs of our players better during the game.

Third Kit looks too much like Dynamos Home

Personally, I dig white uniforms. I just saw this on FB and thought it would be pretty cool as is or perhaps a darker shade of blue. (Uruguay btw)

If you click, it's a City fan who has redesigned the MCFC badge based on the NYCFC and Melbourne Heart badge. It's really cool that the badge NCYFC picked is now being used as a template across the City Group. Speaks well to the taste of the fans.

That's actually really cool. I think a lot of these high-horse ManC fans are gonna be a little bummed when they are also rebranded as a X City Football Club with the circular badge. After seeing the MelC badge it seems this will become the CFG trademark.

Actually, most City fans will be delighted with a circular badge as City's old badges were circular

and most hate the current bollocks for several reasons: The tacky latin motto, the eagle (used on a united shirt in a 50s cup final), and three f***ing meaningless stars.

I have seen many CFG style designs for the new city logo and I have quite liked them, however this one is awful, sorry. It has too much going on, too many colours, the text is poor and black is hideously overused. All just my opinion of course.

These ones I have seen elsewhere and I find they are far better:


but particularly this one:

You know, it would really help

I like the first & third one. Middle one is just a redo of the old one. Third one seems to be an off shade of blue from MCFC's. Interesting in that they all seem to basically be the same design: ship, three lines.

And yeah, the whole "we have an eagle and stars because..uh...AMER....wait we're English uh..." needs to go.

but it is so well designed/updated, it fits in with CFG and city fans would absolutely love it.

because they are:
a. relevant to the city of Manchester
b. (ship) is the only thing running through all of our crests
c. the only redeeming factors of the current badge
