Soccer Club Kits, Vol. 1

We were born from the golden coast, tougher than any soldier... or so the poet claims.

I'm sitting here obsessing over heraldry and these ridiculous rules for describing coats of arms. Apparently, if a lion isn't depicted in profile, it isn't even a lion anymore—it’s just a leopard. Absolute nonsense.

And don't even get me started on Ante Pavelić. What a joke.

As a huge fan of Scotland, I kind of wish the jersey was a bit darker—like, that perfect deep blue. Maybe it'll look different in person, I guess.

San Diego debuted their brand-new jersey set tonight, marking the first time we've seen them in action

While I know most of the fanbase is hating on them—with some even suggesting they look more like practice gear than actual kits—I personally find them quite tolerable. If nothing else, they certainly make the team easy to identify on the field...

I think San Diego made a smart move when they brought in those orange away kits a few years back. Like you said, they really stand out. Maybe other teams could afford to experiment a bit more. I'm not saying they should go full neon pink and green 😁, but maybe a team like Seattle could take their secondary blue kit and throw in some gold accents to match their crest. Anything to break up that classic blue and white look.

Visiting the St. Louis Cardinals, they're bringing one of three kits (three because of UEFA regulations). The third kit is white with a red stripe. The primary is light blue with some black detail on the side... Just waiting for them to hit the stores...

Honestly, since most teams in our league look pretty much identical, a lot of clubs might actually consider this. But since you brought up San Diego, they could easily flip things around and make orange their primary color instead of the away kit. They could do blue or white for away, or even get really creative with it. Orange is basically the soul of the city, the Chicago Bulls, the local water polo team... even the fans live in orange. Why shouldn't the club embrace it, especially now that bold colors are totally mainstream?

Look, as a die-hard Scotland supporter, I'm pretty sure the shade hasn't changed one bit. If you actually care about tradition, then you know these guys are sticking to the classics. 😁
It's obvious in that photo that the lighting is hitting it from the top left corner, making it look brighter than it actually is. Otherwise, it's perfectly normal.

The new season's Bundesliga jerseys have finally arrived

Man, what a total joke! But whatever, someone else will step up and grab the spotlight at the next big party. What a disaster.

Genoa and Milan both look solid

With those slanted lines, it feels like we’re heading straight back in time. This is basically Arsenal from '96.

Aston Villa 97/98

The third kit for Everton from the 93/94 season. Honestly, one of the cleaner looks they put out back then.

Fulham 74/75

Liverpool 95/97

City 99/01

United 90/92

Newcastle 85/88

Stoke 92/93 away

Sunderland 81/83
