Kit Nerd Corner : Colorado Rapids away

Disclaimer : I care and because I want to. Colorado Rapids away In a nutshell : This has got some crazy game and it’s smooth like butter First off, I am not on medication.  At all.  This is a wonderful kit. You can do primary colours, as long as you pick shades that work together, as seen here. The printing of the Colorado state flag “C” with the sun in the middle and the horizontal stripes right in the middle of the shirt is the...

Kit Nerd Corner : Seattle home & away

Disclaimer : I care and because I want to. Seattle home In a nutshell : boring and uninspiring Oh Seattle, you don’t deserve this snoozefest.  You’ve been given some really nice home kits over the years, but this one doesn’t do anyone any favours.  Perhaps this is a test to see if the “Best Fans In The League”TM are gullible enough to buy anything.

Now I’m not sure what prompted the...

Montreal Impact away In a nutshell : a little jealous Well, Montreal is two for two in the “envious of their kits” department.  Their blue and black striped kit is still a beauty, and this is quality for an away kit. As you may or may not know, the fleur-de-lis is to Montreal as the maple leaf is to Toronto.  The fleur-de-lis shows up in three different places : within the badge, imprint...

Kit Nerd Corner : Portland Timbers home

Disclaimer : I care and because I want to. Portland Timbers home   In a nutshell : big chevron, big advertisement, big eyesore I get it, you have the chevrons in your badge.  And it points up. So why in the bluest (or greenest) of hells would that be necessary to make it a blatant design feature?  You have a predominant forest green kit with this big white & lemon space so let’s fill it with a sponsor.  I’ve looked at kit...
