new jerseys!!

[flatpicker]

I do think the grey tops look better than before.
And I am glad the squiggles are gone from both home and away shirts.
But I'm not sold on the grey around the shoulder stripes.
It looks ok on the grey top because it's dark grey on light grey.
But on the red it looks a little clumsy.

I can't believe I'm about to say this... but I may actually like the grey tops better than the red now!

:eek:

[AL-MO]

That video hit the Bullseye

I agree.

[AL-MO]

All the hype about the jersey was for naught.

Totally disappointed in the jersey. Nothing new, just a money grab scheme.

Similar to all the BS about getting new players. At the end of the day it will amount to nothing.

How is this different from any other club around the world?

Giambac,

Why do you even bother posting anymore? Everyone on the board has made it pretty clear that they don't care what you think.

I love the Canada flag on the arm though, great addition. It would be cool to see the Toronto flag on the opposite arm for later editions as well.

....and I was gonna say Arsenal fans.....you know who you are....

[flatpicker]

I know we have discussed price already...
But the first two years we paid $99 for a top... is that right?
And now it's $20 more this year?
Is that how much it costs to sew on a collar?
And will the away kit cost less because it doesn't have a collar?

:noidea:

[Stryker]

*chirping of crickets*

[FOGES]

i dig the flag patch on the arm...that was a must. but i cant believe they went with the same gray as last time, like wtf? dont get me wrong, i love my TFC away jerz, but usually the away kit is a chance to try something new...a new flavour if you will. disappointed with that. they shoulda used the charcoal gray from the home jersey piping...woulda looked much sharper.

the 'All For One' on the jerz is a nice touch, but is that our font or something? cant say im feelin that. it rings of time when our city named its basketball teams after movies that were popular at the time...woulda liked to have seen a more classy job on that

Overall 7/10

[flatpicker]

totally agree...
sometimes I wonder if anyone even looks at the designs before they're sent off to the 3rd world countries to be made.

[Eastend]

the long sleeve looks like a keepers jersey imo

why, because the keeper always wears the worst jersey?

[flatpicker]

[Sab0tage]

Well, I only buy long sleeve kits, but I guess I'm going to take a pass on this year's. The long sleeve home looks awful, and I'm not a huge fan of the away either. I guess I'll just have to stick to wearing my authentic long sleeve Robert shirt this season. :noidea:

[Eastend]

not at all...I actually like it and I hope they have some longsleeve at centresports tomorrow.

[BRed]

Well that was dissapointing. There is not authenticity on the shirts nothing that represents TORONTO. They could have incorporated the Ontario flag somewhere but I guess then we would look like British wanna be's. BUT wait we are under the British Empire so what is there to pretend about? When the Governor General has more power than the Prime Minister what do you call that? ANYWHO! I guess nice jerseys will be left for when the team has another horrible season at which point they will sucker people into a start fresh approach..ALSO WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CITY's COLOR BEING BLUE?? Stupid MLSE is turning Toronto to Red. I hate the dumb Bank of Montreal Transformer logo on the former...seriously BMO in Red that doesn't even make sense their official color is BLUE..if it was CIBC different story.

[Daveisonfire]

I think i might just have to get an away kit this year :O

But i'll reserve my judgement until I see it in store

[Bloor West FC]

I am a fan of the home red kits not the away gray jerseys.

[Stryker]

For me personally, I will not be replacing my old home jersey with the new one.
I'll probley get the new away but I'm in no rush.
Unless that is I can somehow find a mint original red "Toronto" jersey on Ebay first.

[AL-MO]

As I said... long sleeve version = horrible.

Looks like they tried too hard or something.

[flatpicker]

^ that's what I thought their mistake was the first time... I was hoping they learned their lesson by now... guess not.

[Sab0tage]

Looks like they tried too hard or something. I agree. I don't like how the stripes on the arms stop halfway, there's a gap, then they continue. It looks stupid.

I may just save my money and invest in something else. Maybe a new TFC hoody or jacket if they make new ones or get some other European kit for fun.

They tried to do black/charcoal/slate away jerseys this year. The league refused as there are "too many black shirted teams" in the league now. :(

[sulfur]

not at all...I actually like it and I hope they have some longsleeve at centresports tomorrow.
According to the adidas rep, expect only short sleeved home jerseys until March, when the rest will show up.

I mean c'mon we will be just entering our 3rd season, do we really need a new jersey? Is this really any different than last years jersey other than a few minor tweaks? Why do you think they have come out with these jerseys?

When will they sign players? That's what their focus should be on.

So at a gas station, you have Regular (87 octane), Extra (89 octane), Supreme (91 octane) and Giambac fuel (with -50 octane).

Just kidding. :D

I happen to think a new jersey wasn't really necessary but then again, it's not out of character in the football world. The designs themselves are a sideways step, IMO. The grey got better while the red got slight worse and together, they cancel each other out. I was - I wouldn't say annoyed by but - against the idea of changing the lettering on the jerseys at the start of 2008 but that was a league decision, not a TFC one. Nevertheless, change can be refreshing and it's possible that I'll come to appreciate the new jerseys more over time.

[onemanbarmyarmy]

Am I right to assume that the league gets most of the cut from jersey sales? If so then you can complain about the leagues money grubbing. If the team gets the money we should be allowed to use it for team oriented endeavors. Allocation $, better practice facilities, new grass pitch etc. If we can't use the money for that sort of thing then complaints should rain down like poisoned darts upon those in charge.

[Shaughno]

I'm sure we get a cut, but I don't think it's the majority.

[onemanbarmyarmy]

I think it goes:

-MLS(no E)
-Garbers kids
-Rick Peddie
-The guy who dances around outside of theACC for change
-A dead seagull in the parking lot
-then TFC

I just got back from Centresports at the ACC. There are about 50 2009 kits on the rack in various sizes - no major line up when they opened but it was getting busy when I left. Standard $120. Like em or not, if you want one that is all that is there. Not much other stuff there - I guess they won't stock up again until everything comes in in the new colours. Everything left is XXL.

thanks for vid parky
great news about danny
and yes i wasnt going to get one of the new jerseys but the canadian flag and " all for one " on the collar just changed my mind

[AL-MO]

Just a few thoughts: (I didn't attend the Kit Party)

-Don't like the Home long sleeve. Looks over done and like a training jersey or something.
-Glad they got rid of the red shorts with the away kit...(Thanks Flatz!)
-Can the MLS change their numbering? The calculator numbers look terrible.
-I will probably end up getting the away jersey since I already have a red one. But that won't be until the season starts (or even mid season)

[AL-MO]

Is "All for One" on the back of the away jersey too? Or just the collar one?

[JustBoo]
