Athletic Bilbao... absolute perfection 😁

Patrick Martin said:So this is some big "proposal" for the 2011/12 season? Honestly, I'm totally lost here...

It’s not a proposal, dude—it's just the kit for the upcoming season. 😁

BTW, that Galatasaray away jersey is absolute fire... ultrAslan, that's how you do it. The fans stay with the club, and the club stays with the fans. 😁

It looks like someone just opened MS Paint and traced over one of those bloated national team jersey mockups from like eighteen months ago... honestly, I’m pretty sure they used Paint, though I can't say for certain 😁

Scott Wood84 said:Man, just look at how that red color is cut off. It’s totally jagged, right? Like, check out how it looks over here... I can't see the image you've linked, so I don't have any content to work with! Toss me the text or a description of what you want me to rewrite, and I'll get right on it. Just remember—give me something meaty to sink my teeth into if you want that full, rambling, sarcastic treatment.

Look, I get it, I really do. But they had those stretches from '98 to '05 and then again back in '88 to '94... I see where you're coming from, but honestly, it feels like they've been pulling this move way too often lately.

By the way, what's the move for Fantasy Football?

Scott Wood84 said:@Arsenal - Honestly, it’s just not hitting the mark for me. It’s giving off major Ajax vibes. 🤷

Ajax? Please. This is classic Arsenal—iconic red kit, those signature white sleeves. It’s pure tradition.

So, looks like I called it on Real Madrid. I told you guys. As for Belgium... man, I just feel bad for them. After a string of actually decent, genuinely solid Nike releases, I don't even know what company this is supposed to be. Honestly, judging by the design, it’s probably better if we never find out. This looks like something designed for the Second Division, or maybe some bottom-tier club struggling in the Premier League. Total disaster.

Ryan Sanchez98 said:This Real Madrid kit looks like some cheap knockoff you'd find at a flea market.

Aside from that collar, the design is basically just Adidas’s blueprint for next season. Honestly? It’s totally doable, and I actually think it would look pretty sharp once a player is actually wearing it. Maybe Real Madrid will finally spice things up with their kits, because let's be real—they have arguably the most boring jerseys of any major club out there. Sorry, Milan, but you guys are right up there with them.

Everyone’s getting all worked up now, starting new threads, debating this and that... you might want to call the mods over to handle 😂

Anyway, here’s my current Fantasy lineup

Look, the whole point of this place is to post and chat about new kits when they drop, share some cool custom fantasy designs you've found, or show off your own fantasy work.
Lately, things have been getting a little cluttered, so let's try to tidy this up a bit: you don't need to dump five random fantasy kits you just stumbled upon; stick to the ones you actually dig or that are worth a real conversation—for example:
this is a solid fantasy kit made by someone who actually knows what they're doing, and it’s worth discussing because it could legit be a future jersey design

now, this is a fantasy kit that was poorly executed (just look at how disproportionate that Volkswagen logo is and how it looks like it was slapped on with MS Paint) and it honestly doesn't belong here. I mean, hey, Douglas Kern, if you're really that obsessed with it, go ahead, no skin off my nose 😁

Same goes for other jerseys, Matthew Brown60. You posted some kits from a few seasons back, and unless you're starting a debate about them, I don't think there's much point. By the way, New York Red Bulls didn't used to have a crest like that; what you posted is an old away kit, whereas this is what this season's looks like:

Just a few quick ground rules, if you guys are down... if not, well, screw mellowowl38 🤣

neonheron202 said:Probably some cheap knockoff from overseas, but I'll post it anyway

It's a total fake. That's clearly a Barcelona design, and you know Barca would never share their look with anyone else.

Everything looks golden when you're just staring straight ahead...

Playing away? Third in the standings? A goalkeeper? Just some guy lurking in the shadows? Total Batman style? 😁

Honestly, their kits are just way too tacky for me overall—especially when they slap all those rainbow-colored sponsors everywhere... I mean, props to jerseys like the Los Angeles Dodgers, New York Yankees, Brooklyn Nets, or the San Francisco 49ers, but when I see the Dallas Cowboys... man, I gotta give them credit for being "original," but seriously 🤣
so yeah, there are some decent designs in there, but a lot of them are just too gaudy for my American taste 😁

Microsoft, Liverpool FC for next season:



I think the design on the left is a really strong possibility for the Real Madrid home kit—looking at the collar, the sleeves, and the general vibe, it’s pretty simple (well, for a Puma design), just a blue jersey with blue or white trim... feels totally plausible for our kit, especially since it lines up with the teasers about it looking like those Puma ones we rocked back in '82.

And yeah...

Matthew Brown60 said:Exactly. 😁
The USA actually has plenty of much better jersey designs.

Powerball FC



The colors on the local team kits? People honestly think they look like the flag of Vatican City.



Spanish Language Center

Let me clear up those doubts for you—yeah, they definitely have the colors of Vatican City 😁

What’s your take on this jersey?

It’s alright, I guess, but let’s be real—it’s nothing to write home about. Is this really what they came up with for a 30th anniversary? They definitely went for "loud" if they were aiming for anything at all.😁

darkpuma89 said:But does the US actually have a jersey like this in real life? 🤔

From what I can tell, it’s basically a mashup of the current kit (with those little squares all over) and the old-school one (the checkerboard pattern on the sides, plus the red trim and collar).

He’s a beast when we're playing at home, but on the road? Man, he’s absolutely washed... 😁

Douglas Kern said:People were already losing their minds and tearing it to shreds when the home kit dropped. Honestly, seeing this photo makes me genuinely nervous about what’s coming next.

I remember someone once told me a Celtic kit looked more like a cheap undershirt than actual sportswear.








Yeah, well, apparently this is the official look for the French away kit.

I honestly don't get why everyone was whining about the French home kit. Once you pair it with white shorts and red socks, it looks amazing—easily one of the best designs out there.



I'm actually digging this away kit too. It’s solid. It doesn't scream "classic France," but if they wanted everything to stay strictly traditional, they wouldn't have switched from Adidas. Personally, I think Nike did a killer job with the French design, especially when you look at how much other national teams have messed up lately—looking at you, new Brazil kit—not to mention the absolute disaster zone that is club kits this season.

George Ward7 said:These white ones look kinda like baseball jerseys or something, but I actually dig them.

We actually had stuff looking pretty much like this back in the eighties.😉

Personally, I think this new Argentine guy is absolute fire:

So, here’s a little collection I put together specifically because Praskatonov asked for it. Honestly, the only real difference between the top row and the bottom row is just the neck trim and how the sleeves are finished.

Matthew Brown60 said:

Is it actually possible they ripped off an American jersey design, or did we just steal theirs?
We're talking about the club Estudiantes from Mexico.

It’s not plagiarism, man. We don't even own the rights to that specific look, and honestly, that club has cycled through similar kits a few times now. I can't say if they've rocked this style since forever, but I've definitely seen them wearing something like this before.
