Disclaimer: I am not a Liverpool supporter.

But, why didn't the powers that be take a look at Liverpool's kits before they designed ours for this season? Even the grey kits they are wearing today are so nice!

As you can tell, I'm just a little disappointed in our kits this year. They are a mess.

Funny you should mention this cause as I was watching the Liverpool match I was wondering how our away jersey would look with the poolies light checkered background.
Can't say I agree that the kits are a mess though.
If memory serves me right I think there was mention that the away jersey would be worn with black shorts? If correct then I think it could look sharp.

The real mess is the grammar and spelling in this entire post.

I really like the kits this year and as a Liverpool diehard, I hate their new kits. The red I can live with but the grey is disgusting, on the TFC front, I like the red and LOVE the grey.

Kit usually refers to the jersey and in some cases shirt, shorts, and socks only.

I like our kits this year as well. Just wish that we could have a third kit in the black or even a white would be okay too.

I'd like black as well, however Montreal has a black 3rd kit so scratch that idea.

The maple leaf on the arm is overkill. We look like a minor league rep hockey team. As is the collar, especially the "All for One." You'd have to be pretty shameless to pop that up on the pitch... I dunno, I'm withholding my final judgement until I see it out there on the pitch, but I'm not impressed this year.

I think a white kit trimmed in red and gray would look awesome!!

I like the new short-sleeve shirt, but not the new long-sleeve.

I was under the impression that all the USA teams will be wearing the Stars and Stripes on their arm.

I believe it is a league wide phenomenon!

the sounders and houston have it so ya it probably league wide.

I like havin the Canadian flag on it but not so big and conspicuous. I like the way Barca incorporated the Catalan flag along the back of the neck

yes, but not so pronounced; same as everywhere else

That picture actually makes the shirt look waaaay better. You have to see one in real life to realize what a mess it is. The Canadian Flag on the sleeve is worse than an iron on. The collar without a "v" neck looks so akward.

The long sleeve is even worse the way the adidas stripes are broken up on arms.

I'm just frustrated because I was so excited for new kits. I want to like it, I really do....I just cant!

If I get a jersey this year, it will likely be the away jersey.

have you actually touched the thing? It's a massive patch that's really thick to the touch. I think it's well done. I'd rather have a real patch instead of some simple embroidery.

yeah i think the Canadian Flag looks bulky and basically crap. But the Liverpool Grays are the ugliest thing in football right now so i'm in the middle of this thread.

^I am a Liverpool supporter and I totally agree with you about their away greys. Very ugly.

I really like our new away strip though. I'll probably pick one up this season.

That's the new adidas thing. Expect all of the jerseys next year (not just MLS, but... ALL) to look like that. Having seen the leaked Chelski jersey... broken chunks. Just the same.

Not as yet. Unfortunately. Yonge+Dundas adidas store didn't have 'em either. One of the few new things they did not have.

Yeah, I've touched it (got to be a better way to say that). It almost seems to me that it was an after thought. The jerseys came out and then they slapped on a Canadian flag badge/iron on.
