Hello there, this is my first post on MLS Talk and I would like to thank everyone who made this possible.
Now, on to the Kits.
I’ve always had a passion when it comes to kits/jerseys/athletics wear. Here, I am going to summarize the new kits for this MLS Season.
Houston:
I really love this template that Adidas pumped out. But what’s the point of the lines coming across the front? The “Sun Rays” ruin this kit. I’m waiting for the Phoenix Suns to use this jersey!!! (I noticed Frei of Toronto FC had the same kit temp as a keeper, minus the lines??? Anyone notice???)
I was glad to see those messed up Tribal lines go. To be replaced with… more lines. But in all respect the Light Blue lines look nice. Which brings me around to this: Why the light blue? The only real sign of it, even on the website, was the outline of the logo. I wouldn’t mind that blue be black, or even white. But the blue is nice. The lack of the MLS Cup Champs patch is surely a weird sight.

Toronto:
MARK: 6 White-stripes-on-a-Gray-Backround out of 10
New York:
The main topic on this kit is the Zipper looking thing. Apparently it is a a small piece of rubber that says “Red Bull New York” Thanks Ric!!! Its decent collar to boot. I still like the color combos. Like to see the white at home. I’m pretty sure I’m the only one not wanting the red top, white bottoms from the first year of the New York Energy Drinks saga. The navy is also pretty nice.

Seattle:
Very short and sweet. Not a lot of bad things about this kit.
9 Stains-of-beer-on-Drew-Carey’s-Shirt out of 10
MINOR NOTES:
LEAGUE: The whole MLS will have their respective nations flag and the MLS logo on either side. It also cuts off the Adidias Triple Stripe.
SAN JOSE:
COLORADO:
COLUMBUS:
Adds MLS CUP patch to front. See it here.
Thank you everyone for letting me do this!!!
Regards,
Marty.
