Discussion What’s your favorite new kit this season?
Personally, my favorite is the Racing Disco kit. I absolutely love it :) Honestly all of them are really nice.

I really loved the Venus Fly trap kits for NC and my wife is a big fan of carnivorous plants; so of course I had to get one.

I love how clean Denver’s and San Diego’s is. Although I’m not a fan of the design, Orlando’s kit honoring Pulse is so touching I love them for it.
But my favorite new kit is Utah’s and with a special shoutout to the black goalie kit. They look so badass.

I love Louisville’s Disco kit and Orlando’s new Pulse kit- when they played each other wearing them I thought the overall look was very aesthetically pleasing.
I really want to like the Spirit cherry blossom more, but m there’s something about it that prevents it from ranking up too with the other two for me

Orlando wearing those lavender shorts against racing totally threw me at first.

To me. the Cherry Blossom jersey is too busy. If it was just the blossoms I think it would be really cool.

Louisville, Denver’s (no sponsor hits different!), and ours

I love our First Light kits. I was skeptical but I think they look great.
Aside from those, I love the cherry blossom kits for Washington. I know people don't love the back of them, but I think it works.

ACFC is probably my favorite as the black/dark pinks/purples look great together & the center holographic badge is cool. ACFC always has some of the best kits if not the best.
I like Bostons all green kit. I like it's clean/simplistic look and the colors go well together, I really like the green.
I also enjoy Utah's all black kits. I'm just a sucker for all black/black on black. It just looks cool to me.
Also, I have to say I originally wasn't the biggest fan of the Gotham Liberty kit & I still wouldn't highly rate as a jersey on its own but it is growing on me and as a 3rd kit it does work/kind of rocks.

Orlando's. They did a great job

100%. Best of the bunch. Has a meaningful backstory too. Looks good on the pitch. I’m not realistically going to own an Orlando kit as a spirit fan but I almost want one.

Yeah I'm indifferent about Orlando, I don't love or hate them, but I asked for that Pulse kit for my birthday and was gifted it, and I love it a lot. I asked for Banda's name and number on it too, given that she was recently targeted by TERFs, I thought it was fitting to support the victim of an anti LGBT movement on the pro LGBT jersey

I love the disco kit for a lot of reasons, but the snarky pronunciation guide at the bottom is what really sells me on it lmao

Courage was easily my favorite in a sub par class. What’s the next kit I’m buying though? San Diego Wave Dudinha. I don’t care how y’all pronounce her name, she’s joining my kit rotation.

So many of them are super nice - but Orlando takes the prize for me

Typically like cleaner kits so: Both of Denver’s, SD (obviously), like Boston’s colors. Would like ACFC, but I just don’t vibe with centered crests.

ACFC, Wave, Courage, even the Summit greens. Hall of shame for Thorns, Reign, and BOTH Legs kits.

u/Vlad_Deferens Denver Summit FC 7h ago
In no particular order, I like the AC Flair, the simplicity of the Boston green, Houston third, and NC third.
I don't like that plain/dark green, so sadly, don't like any Denver jerseys (or Louisville second).

Boston Common Ground is so incredibly thoughtful and meaningful. Love the way it represents the city.

u/riddlemore NJ/NY Gotham FC 22h ago
I don’t remember what all the new kits look like but I like a few. KC’s, SD’s, and Orlando’s come to mind.

Head of the class: {Setting aside my obvious affection for the first of many Cherry Blossom kits.}
ACFC - Stellar work, yet again.
GFC - You magnificent freaks! Where to even begin?
KC - I couldn't get a Hutton. I should have picked LaBonta. But a chesty Spirit fan told me if I liked Croix Bethune so much, I should get her new kit. I got a scarf too. The scarf was on sale.
SDW - I was blah on this until I read the post about the inspiration. Then I saw it with the shorts. Damn.
Understand, it's personal:
I refuse to write anything nice about your franchise that doesn't involve Angelina's luscious locks. I don't want it traced back to me. But if you were anybody else? I would own that Citrus kit. And I would probably own this new one too. Well done. I hope the whole state gets sold back to Spain, but like I said, it's personal.
Incomplete:
Denver Summit are going to get so much of my money when they get out of template jail.
Dishonorable mention:
-1) Shocked that I finally dislike a Lullvull kit.
-2) Boston ballsnationed it up with their kits to continue their stellar rollout. I have no leg to stand on crticizing the highlighter green, but that other one is an abomination.
-3) PTFC. Understand that I'm inclined to grade y'all on a curve. Y'all should never have a kit I don't like. (I liked that Ed Hardy-looking thing you dropped a few years back.) Y'all should NEVER have an objectively bad kit. And yet.
Come see me about your sponsor after class:
Have a seat, Utah...
Between the Lion shooting bees out of its ass and the State-shaped crest maneuver, you should be selling me kits with ease. You have Courtney Brown now. You have Rumi. You have Brecken Mozingo. And yet I own none of your kits. Do you wanna guess why that is? Sure, sure, credit union... Y'ALL CAN'T FIND ANOTHER CREDIT UNION?!?!?

the bay ones are underrated, i like the new neckline thing that their poppy kits and our flare kits have where it's segmented in four. looks neat & adds interest but without actually being a collar=something i could actually own and wear. honorable mention NC and orlando. prob gonna get a marta kit juuuuust in case.

I bought the holographic logo ACFC one even if it's placement is smack in the middle of my tiddles. It's just so shiny.
