New Kits

http://adidas.republity.com/i/136858

All the new teamwear models,info about the WC kits,plus confirmation that the Germany design is a training top there.PM me for the password.

Some stuff:

Germany away shirt is black
Japan away shirt is fluo yellow ("electricity")
Denmark and Russia's away shirts are white/blue
Mexico away shirt is red (poppy/black)
Colombia away shirt is red too (university red/navy)
The Denmark home shirt might contain a cross.
The Russia away shirt has a kinda "men-in-space" look.
Condivo 14 model seems to be the main one,and from what I can see it's looking sharp.
The keeper model is named "Onore 14" and is looking pretty nice too.

dont know why .. but the more i look at this the more i like it ... it's not only the kit design but the idea .. nowadays pretty much every jersey design is based on a traditional one (from the 70s/80s/90s) which are called classic now .. im pretty sure that not every kit back then has found sympathy from the fans.

and to be honest im bored of those traditional/classic based kit designes ....

I'm sorry but this is awful, only this is worse.

Just to add my 2 cents about FIFA's war against shorts color: Mexico kit with red shorts is ugly as f**k and Italy away looks better with blue shorts IMO.
Great times when these clashes weren't a problem.

I came here to post the same, fuck FIFA stupid rules !
 
I still can't imagine what were they thinking when they came up with these stupid rules ..
so, we'll be deprived from many beautiful combinations , and maybe forever ..
we can't accept to miss Italy Blue/White/Blue home and White/Blue/White Away ..
France Blue/White/Red ..
Mexico Green/White/Red
Croatia Blue Socks

and I'm afraid they will make Germany play in all white ..
or Brasil in all yellow ..

since football was created, all these teams played against each others with no confusion ..
 
Well,it seems by that pic that the stripes will be two-tone.It can look either interesting (I think Corinthians' centenary jersey had that effect and and it looked cool) or horrific.I'd opt for the first,but you never know.

And the shock: Germany IS all white :RANT:
 
Well,unfortunately yes,all white Germany. Sweden however,still is yellow shirt/blue shorts.

Some more info:

-Japan home will ditch the two-tone effect and go for the normal blue only.
-Mexico home will have some kind of "graphic representing power" (This one sounds awful).
-Russia away will have "a blue and white graphic representing the view the first men in space had when they looked back in their country"
-Russia home will return to the maroon-gold combination (phew!) and have a graphic representing the Kosmonaut Museum.
-Denmark away is "fashionable" and represents "the history of the Danish people as maritime people (WTF?)".
-Sweden might not change their kits,I think they will but the colours will be the same.
-Germany away will have a "contemporary" design and is designed for use not only in the stadium but as casual wear as well,and is all-black,it also uses dark grey in the shorts/socks.
-Argentina away will "represent the national heroes that gave the country a new identity" and is royal blue-navy blue (the royal blue is the same one as HSV use in their new kit).
-Argentina home will somehow incorporate the flag (probably by the number of the stripes or a jacquard print of the sun they have there).
-Germany home will not have any yellow/gold and will be all-white (with silver adidas stripes and red-black trim,the silver stripes are going to be invisible from distance since it's a light silver).
-Mexico away will be quite simple.
-Colombia home might not have any red,but away is red-blue.

FIFA Kit rules...

http://www.fifa.com/mm/document/tournament/competition/51/54/30/equipment_reg_26032010_en.pdf



Goodness me – whats going on at Warrior?! Has there ever been a more schizophrenic approach to kit design that what is emerging from these previously relatively unknown company? This year’s strips are following a similar vein to last: classy, respectful, understated home kit clearly constructed by people that have an understanding at what makes a good football outfit. This is accompanied by, lets be frank, a complete dogs dinner of an away outfit.

I must state I have no aversion to bold, controversial designs. Designs that challenge the thinking of the average football fan and re-write the rule books as to what a good kit should be are to be applauded as far as I’m concerned. I’m also ready for a return to patterned designs that liven up a kit world that has in the past decade or so been dominated by single colour, plain designs. Clearly the competition with sponsors, manufacturers logos and ever intrusive competition sleeve patches is growing but a well considered, thought through and skillfully rendered pattern on a shirt can really add something to a strip.

Unfortunately Liverpool’s recently launched away kit (and if the leaked photos are to be believed, the third as well) have none of these qualities. They are quite frankly a mess ‘plumped up’ by ridiculous PR/marketing spin that attempts to justify the design. The red neck is apparently inspired by the red v-neck of the classic Liverpool away kit of the late 70s/early 80s – nonsense! Its red. Thats where the similarity ends. The garish pattern at the bottom of the shirt is inspired by the club’s late 80s silver away kit – nonsense! Both include a diamond shape. Thats where the similarity ends. Top all this off with dated red flashes, mismatched manufacturers logo and club badge and you have a very poor kit indeed.

My biggest problem with all of this though, as my Twitter follows will no doubt testify, is the complete lack of unity between all three of the club’s kits this year. OK, not every away shirt has to be a reversed version of the home but there should always be some sense that they belong to the same set of kits for the same team in the same sport. Warrior’s away kit is so alien to the home it could easily belong in another sporting sphere altogether.

I have heard that the home kit and the away/third kits have been designed by different design teams within Warrior. This doesn’t surprise me and goes some way to explain the lack of cohesion between the strips. I’ve also heard that the person responsible for the away kit ‘left’ Warrior a month or so ago. My suspicion is that everyone knows this is a very ill-considered and amateurish design but the process has progressed so far there was no way back. Either way, all of this reflects very badly on Warrior and the club themselves for rubber stamping this strip.

Its not often I speak so forthrightly about a kit as I try to look for the good in all designs and as a graphic design fully realise that design is subjective – there is no right or wrong. But….I am struggling to see the good in Liverpool’s approach to kit selection. I would love an opportunity to find out from the horse’s mouth quite what the strategy is behind these designs.

Thanks for that denirobob,it doesn't mention anything about shirt/shorts/socks being the same colour... Sigh.

Whoever did that LFC away review,is spot on on everything.

The away kit looks like it's going to be awesome.A home like this with black shorts would've been amazing,but white shorts? No. By the way these are drafts,not the kit designs.The kit designs shouldn't be too far from these though,but I doubt they'd use similar home and away kits.
