Yeh, I'd buy that...
Weird thing
Buy from mlssoccer.ca
Free shipping of a jersey
Buy from realsports? 11.29 in the city
Pretty sure the voice on the team blurb is Justin Morrow.
I too find the rationale to leave this to a podcast guy a bit weird but oh well.
For the last 5 years people have been saying..."Hey bring back the Onyx" - and so they did.
Lets see it under...
And the back story

That reminds me of why I love my 2017 jersey - long sleeve with black & the one they won the star in.
Seriously, I think if this jersey had 3 stars on it, we'd be going, "Sure, whatever"
Ok, here's why I like the full kit (not just the jersey which I will not wear cause imagine that with Dad jeans and no....just no)
1. Onyx - the memories of Defoe aside, there WAS something about...

Ok so the video dropped

As a jersey...meh
As a kit - :flare:
Uh, apparently the designer is a SSH. (according to the email I just received)
Yeh, as a guy who's mid life crisis was clothes.....not really into hoops. Back doesn't look bad but I prefer undertones.
Ours likely to drop today
Won't be as cool as the Nashville one that just dropped - Johnny Cash all black....
By the looks of things, Club Foot wanted some indigenous phrasing but didn't realise the length of the process necessary to get to the point where that would be doable is not controllable.
I'm OK...
Small reminder - this kit was designed 2 years ago & approved in 2021 - that's always the timelines
So... if this design is true, I'ma going to just blame this one on somebody having Covid :)

They were never going to give us Onyx for the away jersey because we couldn't play away against all the black jersey teams.
BUT....Onyx hoops with red trim & red sleeves?!?!?!
We are due to get a main strip change this year - home strip.
That looks like a mockup of a training top.
Edit
Oh...crap
St. Louis kit announced - a different sort of red. I kinda like it

Adidas going with that half & half kit idea...
