Well well, here's a little story.
At the beginning of the year, Avaí FC, team participating of Brazilian Série A, decided to create an interactive contest letting any person to feel free to propose a design for a brand new kit to be used in Brazilian Cup.
The actual kits of the team are those:
Home
Away
Third
Discussions about these kind of sets have already been made every year with turkish clubs.
However, since it is a contest to create a special Brazilian Cup (fourth) kit, what would it be like?
In the end, 685 kit designs were proposed, 45 reached the "semifinals", and 5 were selected to the final by a group containing people from the club, from the fansite crew, and from the manufacturing company. The finalists were these ones:
Wow. What the hell was that?
Number 1 looked like our current home kit. Why would we have another one like this?
Same for numbers 3 and 5, too similar to our third kit.
Then we have kits number 2 and 4.
I have voted for number 4. The main reason... the (even if small) change of colour.
Guess who won?
... Here we go again for a new season of 4 (or more) kits with the same colors.
PS 1: We play with this shirt for the first round of Brazilian Cup on wednesday, against Ypiranga. It haven't been told yet whether the guys will play with black pants or no shorts at all.
PS 2: I can't even imagine what will it be like if we meet another mostly-white team on this cup.
PS 3: Here are some proposals by a mockup creator that were, IMO, far more interesting than the finalists. Some kits there are also far better than our current home and away kits. Bordallo proposals
