2016 Jersey Thread

Who is this?

Connor Benchwarmer Brandt, our (4th?) string leftback. Was on the team last year but I think he was injured.

Connor "Chap" Brandt

Fixed.

Hadn't seen him in so long I forgot he was blonde. Damn.

Yeah I don't think we have to worry about being the kit laughingstock of the league now that I've seen the full Columbus kit... WHY would they mess with their colors? Black/yellow is one of my favorite combos. Imagine BVB came out with a kit like that? Almost can't believe it... It's like they were trying to field the ugliest thing anyone has ever seen.

I think the shirts in and of themselves aren't bad. The red Adidas stripes do bring it down quite a bit though. But I'll agree that doing away with the black and yellow is a bit tragic. And then you throw in the blue shorts... That's the unfortunate finishing touch.

If Brandt can be used as an example, these jerseys will look pretty bad on us pigmentally challenged.

wish the concept was more subtle like the unions new kit: http://www.footyheadlines.com/2016/02/philadelphia-union-2016-home-kit.html - I like this a lot.

Yeah, but its going to be very difficult for Philly to play effectively while they're all carrying snakes.

Who is this? EDIT Connor Brandt

Looks like a kid's shirt. How is an adult supposed to wear that causally without being in a constant state of embarrassment.

I might buy a vintage Cosmos kit out of spite.

 

[Rimil]

whats the difference between the replica and authentic versions?

 

[Ulrich]

Yeah, but its going to be very difficult for Philly to play effectively while they're all carrying snakes.

No problem for a Replicant

Who is this? EDIT Connor Brandt

I just realized what this shirt reminds me of! The style is very juvenile, 90's, and exhibits energy in a wacky way. Like this:

Btw, this video would make a great NYCFC parody.

Wait till you see their boots!

 

[Dreaming_NYC]

You guys are so boring , I think it looks sexy. When the leak came out it looked horrible but I think they cleaned it up pretty nice.

whats the difference between the replica and authentic versions?

Authentic is the player version. Slightly different material and has all the bells and whistles. Fits a size smaller.

Replica won't have a bunch of things the authentic has. Different badge, no jock tag, different MLS badge material, only one MLS badge, different stripe material, no "breathable" back, etc.

EDIT:
Made this. You can see some differences.

Anyone else notice the big PR push behind this abortion of a jersey? They've got youth affiliates, coaches, players, bench warmers I think they even reached out to Grabavoy to say he likes the jersey.

 

[NYCFCP]

This thing is really disgusting. It fits right in with the 1996 MLS jerseys.

And I see alot of atleast Columbus is ugly too, atleast they messed up using their flag. We're going with "Radiant graphic elements celebrating the energy of NYC"

How do people get paid to design and write this nonsense?

That shit looks like some horseshit I would have submitted back in high school to barely pass a class I never showed up to.

Can we get these kicks with the circles? I'd like them to match my new jersey.

 

[horseytweets]

The hideous circles are meant to create vertigo in our opponents. Since we suck so bad, it's the only way we can win. With that being said, thanks MLS, ADIDAS and NYCFC for saving me $90 this season.

 

[Dreaming_NYC]

Its meant to hypnotize our oppennets... They get distracted during the game and we just sneak in a few harmless goals.
