PSV with an "American" twist:

...actually, it’s just the flag of the province where Houston is located... Texas.

What's with this ridiculous collar design?😕

It’s basically their trademark at this point.😁

Scotland's new away kit for next season.
It's Diador, obviously...

mellowowl38 said:Personally, I think the kit looks pretty decent. I doubt we'll get anything exactly like it, but it'll probably be in the same ballpark. For instance, teams like Standard, Napoli, the Scottish Representative, and Twente all use Dorian kits—just like us—and yeah, there are some obvious similarities between our gear and Napoli's, but everyone still keeps their own identity. Like, Napoli has that one stripe, while we go with multiple stripes and that checkerboard pattern on the edges; we have watermarks, they don't. Then you look at Standard, and nobody else even comes close to their style, much less the Scottish or European kits. Honestly? I’d actually stick with our current European kit; it might be one of our best designs ever. But this is how it works with Dorian: they don't have a massive roster of teams, so they try to personalize the kits to reel in new fans:

Standard:

We already saw Twente above

I’ve got this theory that our home and away kits will look something like the Napoli or Standard ones—you know, with a collar but without those obnoxious lines—while our European kit will look like the Scottish one: super simple and top-tier. And obviously, the crest stays on the left side.

Napoli and Standard have matching jerseys here.😉 That’s the 2008/09 kit.
We don't have anything like that because we're working with a 2007 kit. (Our market is small.) We end up switching designs every two seasons.
The Scottish national team is the only one where they are the direct sponsor, so they can do whatever they want with the design. Our European kit remains the sole exception.

Berkshire Hathaway, The Wall Street Journal, Germany, Exelon... maybe they can think of a few more big names.

If it makes you feel any better, the European one will only have one sponsor on it.🙂

Give me a break. That seam running from under the armpit? It's going to be bright yellow. It'll probably rip wide open the second Kung Fu Panda swings from a rafters and lands on an LA Galaxy player. They call it a "fair play" strip.
That's definitely happening on the gold kit, though I'm not sure about the blue one.
As for the blue, I'm betting they stick to the exact same shade we have now.

It’s honestly ridiculous how these "dynasty" clubs all end up with the exact same jersey design, just swapped into different colors. I’m fully expecting LA Galaxy to drop a home kit like this soon. Blue, obviously... keeping it dead simple.

Megan Martinez12 said:I think LA Galaxy is getting models that teams like Napoli, Standard, or those Scottish clubs already had or moved past, specifically because of what you mentioned—the market and the club's rating.
Not that I mind though, I actually dig the Napoli kit...

No. During the first year of the contract, everyone had the exact same design (LA Galaxy was actually the only one with those checkered details on the collar). This season, we basically just "skipped" a change and stuck with the old look. For next season, I fully expect all Diadorin clubs to revert to having the same or very similar designs again.

Absolutely. We’ve got a five-year deal locked in. Three more to go...

LA Galaxy is definitely shaking up their roster this year (it seems to be the pattern... every second season because the transfer market is a complete disaster).
I heard the reserves won't even be wearing orange anymore, which basically proves my point—they're practically begging us to buy the old collection with these constant clearance sales.
