Every Adidas kit that cuts their three stripes along the upper arm leave the shoulder stripes looking like 19th century military uniforms. Unless all the players grow handlebar mustaches I think this looks stupid. The colors on the Russia kit are awesome, but bleh... they went a little overboard with the horizontal embroidery.

Nothus posted:drat, Adidas just can't make up it's mind. On one hand, they go with timeless and simple like Argentina and South Africa. On the other, we get Mexico and the new Russia kit: Weird pretend collar on those. I hope the X is just for a training shirt, because it would look weird with a number/name on it for games. Fairly horrible all things considered though.

Yeah it's like their powerweb poo poo. But the shirt looks far too loose for that to have any effect

Those weird graphics in the middle, combined with the odd-shaped stripes, make it look like my nan's armchair. Also, I think it is impossible to make a bad Argentina shirt.

I guess the colors were off in that earlier shot of the Mexico shirt. What's with the texture? Is it something uniquely Mexican? And the red armpit accents are dumb.

Directorman posted:Germany kits are on sale now It's very pretty. I like the faint white lines on both sides of the German colors. But is it the angle I'm looking at, but is there white figures/shapes to the right? E: Also, USMNT kits are due February 1st. Really looking forward to see if Nike tries the diagonal again.

Mexico has the weirdest fitting kit I have ever seen. It's hideous. It's actually worse than Chelsea's bra kit. If the German one wasn't so nice, I would have thought everyone at Adidas was insane.

I'm of the opinion that keeper kits should be identical to the standard kit just in a different color. That is atrocious.

What the gently caress is up with adidas? I like that Russia shirt, but I think its just the colour scheme that does it for me, but then there's the Mexico abomination and the whole Spain thing. The shorts are absoloutely hideous. From when was powder blue part of Spain's national colours?
