That is possibly the most disgusting thing I've seen this calendar year. Thank goodness I had an empty stomach when I saw it.
disgusting seems a bit harsh for me, but preferences are subjective - what's your favorite this year?
Bit of exaggeration, sorry. If you get to know me you rapidly come to realise that I overstate pretty much everything.
As for my favourite kit - tough question. I don't want to say MCFC's because I'll likely be accused of bias, but their kits this year are my kind of designs. I like Southampton's home kit - a nice, clean design, though it would be better if the red stripes didn't have to include those silly diagonal lines on them which serve zero purpose. Thankfully they're hard to see at distance so you can forget about them quite easily.
Lazio's kit is a beauty too - their kit designers clearly understand that the secret to a beautiful kit is to make it simple. Single colour, no attempts at shoving in patterns or symbols or colours that have no need to be there. PSG's designers have got the right idea, too - reduce the classic red and white stripes to a minor detail so it doesn't interrupt the sleekness of the design. I'll also give kudos to Real Madrid and Roma for their home kits.
Falastur do you notice that most if the fans that prefer Adidas to Nike seem to be more European and vice versa for Nike and Americans. The styles apparently appeal differently to each.
Eh...I'm not sure. If you're referring to the way a few MCFC fans have come on here and said "I far prefer your kit", I would put that down as circumstantial. Every year when the kits come out the fans will have their say on the forums and elsewhere, and depending on how well that year's kit went down will have a large effect on their opinion of the manufacturer. A legacy of good designs helps, but it only takes a couple of years of disharmony between fans and kits to unmake a reputation. In this case, MCFC fans don't like the blue shorts and don't like that the sponsors' logo and certain other elements have become this black/dark blue colour when they were previously white, so MCFC fans currently aren't fans of Nike but like the Adidas kits for containing those elements. I suspect that MLS fans are much the same - a couple of years of poor design choices, perhaps more in the field of the material used and so on - have made Adidas unpopular while you are more willing to look at other shirts in a positive light.
In general, I'd say that Adidas actually have a few things which count against them over here. The three white stripes, for example, are undeniably an Adidas staple and can really distinguish which manufacturer made the shirt, but my word if having three stripes on your shoulders isn't an ugly design feature, and indicative of everything that I argued against in my last post. I don't think Adidas have a better or worse reputation than most other brands here otherwise.
They reputation of each do seem to be different among the different sets of fans and I think its seems to me that American and MLS want the teams jersey to be more about the team and less about the maker like you said but I fan seen many European fans ask why we dislike Adidas and like Nike or covet them so much. But honestly I'm really hoping for anyone but Adidas with a bit of extra preference to Under Armour.
those are real nice! I gotta warm up more to simple jerseys
So do MCFC fans want white shorts under sky blue tops? Ecch. Those abominations we wore last night look like toddler pajamas.
