Kit Nerd Corner : Montreal Impact away
Disclaimer : I care and because I want to. 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…

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…

Kit Nerd Corner : Philadelphia Union away
Disclaimer : I care and because I want to. Philadelphia Union away In a nutshell : Why bother trying. Philadelphia have been on a slippery slope downward.

Kit Nerd Corner : DC United away
Disclaimer : I care and because I want to. DC United away In a nutshell : new Adidas template that throws subtlety out the window Over the years, DC United has been bland with their away kit : just the inverse of the black kit. A few years back, they blew minds by offering…

Kit Nerd Corner : Chicago Fire away
Disclaimer : I care and because I want to. Chicago Fire away In a nutshell : Inoffensive to the eyes, isn’t strict in sticking to the official colours Not everything needs to be a dramatic departure.

Kit Nerd Corner : LA Galaxy Away
Disclaimer : I care and because I want to. Los Angeles Galaxy away In a nutshell : It’s a stunner. Simple, subtle and a little different. As much I quietly miss the gold/teal Galaxy look from years gone by (but not the badge), the white/navy combo has been a step up in class. They have…
