There, now I can tell when you're posting.

Nike, are you depressed? I know, it's tough out there for a multinational corporation. Take a breather, and then... Just do it. :)

Can't wait to read the press release explaining the "design." Supposedly the USMNT will be wearing one — presumably the away — in next Friday's WCQ in Guatemala, but I haven't seen anything official announced or teased. You'd think Nike and the USSF would want to capitalize on sales and stuff before the first appearance.

Well that was quick (via SI.com)

quote:

“The U.S. Soccer Federation pushes us like nobody else,” Scott Munson, vice president of Nike football apparel, tells SI.com. “They want us to be bold and want to take risks at times.”

Black is a risk, no doubt. But Nike—with the full blessing of the federation—took that risk, knowing it was balanced against the traditional white of the home kit.

Nice of them to roll out future Chelsea captain Matt Miazga for that photoshoot, too

That article had a couple smaller photos, too.

I dunno, I'm warming up to the home kits

As stated above, CB Matt Miazga (that Chelsea signee who has all of one senior team cap) and Seattle's Jordan Morris, who has played in a handful of USMNT games and will probably play for the U-23s in Olympic qualifying playoff next week.

And hey, here's England

A kid who will rot in Chelsea's reserves/on loan forever and a college kid who decided it was better for his career to play in Seattle instead of Germany.

quote:

the US national football team unveils classic white and bold black themes for their respective 2016 home and away kits. the uniforms proudly feature the new united states soccer federation crest, which consists of a modernized shield with ‘USA’ in a new navy blue font, placed above a series of vertical red and white stripes. the new men’s home shirt features a traditional white body and blue sleeves; the women’s shirt features a white v-neck collar with a red trim at the back. phrases like ‘1 nation’ and ‘1 team’ adorn the inside cuffs, while the inside of the body reveals a circular graphic with with ‘USA’ written in the center, surrounded by motivational statements like ‘we can,’ ‘we will,’ and ‘we are’. these statements refer to an inspirational tweet by fan meghan brennan that was displayed on the wall of the USMNT’s dressing room before its famous victory over ghana at the 2014 world cup.

It looks great with black Adidas tracksuit pants, squatting, and drinking beer/eating sunflower seeds. Therefore, it's the perfect Russia kit.

The new Australia kit, and it's garbage - they even sort of managed to gently caress up the away (the blue), which imo is one of the best colour schemes in world football. What the gently caress happened to Nike this year?

It has to be Zlatan-style.
