I like it, but I think it's down to the fact that I always associate national teams with a period when they were really good and that's 70s looking. It was West Germany I know, but a young Beckenbauer wouldn't look out of place in that.

Soccer Triads seems to have less selection at the moment. What were the other recommended online places? I'm thinking of one that tons of long sleeves...

Cross posting from the Ligue 1 thread, the away shirt for Rennes is very cool this year. It's got to be one of the best Puma shirts this season.

I guess I was just in shock from seeing a nice clean design and a well integrated sponsor logo (and only one sponsor at that) on a French club's shirt.

Mr Pepper posted:how can you guys call that shirt boring as gently caress and then cream your pants over liverpool's new home plain red shirt? Because the previous kits had an annoying amount of white in them and a return to an all red kit is noteworthy, as it hasn't looked that way in some time. It's not simply about it being a plain shirt.

West Brom have red numbers and letters on the back of their jerseys. I think it's just the font that's standardized.

I think that looks a lot better than disrupting the stripes with a huge blank patch for the number and name like it is on Newcastle's current kit, for example. As long as the ref can see it clearly, I don't know why the league should have an issue with it? Come to think of it, why is there a standard font?

EDIT: Interesting. This is supposedly from the Premier League's "application guide." It looks like various colors are already permitted, but I guess most clubs select white for maximum contrast.

To be honest, I did see a Liverpool home kit in the wild, and it did just look like a common-or-garden red polo shirt with yellow badges. Of course, I didn't feel the need to go up to the guy and start pulling at his shirt to see what it was made of, so ymmv.

Even in the US there must be plenty of sports shops that have the United/Arsenal/Liverpool/Chelsea kit in stock. Just go and touch them. The Liverpool kit feels fine to me material wise, but as I've said before I don't like the look of it anyway. I have six or seven red Liverpool tops, maybe I'll get the away this year. I did see the third in person just yesterday. There's no getting around it, it's weird. I kinda like it but I'm not spending money on it.

That font is the Premier League font, no other league in the world uses it(as far as I know). I've always wanted to see a black United kit with red numbers for some reason, I'm not sure why.
