Re: Soccer/Association Football Kit Discussion
I don't mind the sash, but the rest of the design is complicated. There are trimmings toward the sleeve, and it makes the shirt have a box-y look.

Re: Soccer/Association Football Kit Discussion
The big stripe is nice but I don't like the small pin stripes at the sides.
A jersey I liked last year was the one of St. Pauli. just plain colour but shiny .
and if you turned it around it would have a print of the quarter of town , (for the 100 year anniversary)
These are the HSV ones, and I have to say that I prefer stripes to be a bit bigger, this one is nearly pinstripe on the right.

Haha black out the "
" Great pun! I love what we're wearing, looks great. I think they should've put an outline around the Phoenix logo, 'cause the head was clashing with the kit. We should wear that more often, because jeez that's beautiful.
I was wondering why no one mentioned anything about a third kit, but it must be promotional.
Wellington's "black out the heart" kit looks good

Re: Soccer/Association Football Kit Discussion
Lovely looking kit. My major gripe with the 'Nix various strips is the yellow. It's almost a fluorescent yellow, as opposed to a 'gold' (in which most sports teams seem to favour). On top of that, this shirt should've had yellow trimmings. It would've made the shirt look more Wellington, rather than a stock Adidas one.
Was this "Black out the Heart" marketed at all? If not, it was a perfect chance at marketing (something every single A-League team needs) that's gone begging.
Although the Heart probably went to NZ not knowing about this strip (like us all, it seems), I'd like to see more home kits being worn away. Almost every club refuses to don their home shirt on the road (when no clash would occur).
Game highlights (and the strip) is streaming here

Because fleurescent yellow and black clash don't they
Talking about how they played too.
Agree with SA. Gold/yellow trim would really top it off. Anyone notice the a league logo was on the right side (when viewed front on).

Re: Soccer/Association Football Kit Discussion
I quite liked the look of the the black Phoenix kit as well. Clean and simple.
I don't like there Yellow/Black Kit though
Looks very much like a template shirt and the A-League logo looks very messy with the black outline.

Re: Soccer/Association Football Kit Discussion
I thought the same thing about the black kit. Plain, simple, and bold. And TBH, I thought it was a training top
Even though it's another example of template copying, I think it suits Wellington.

Re: Soccer/Association Football Kit Discussion
The thing is, almost every single Adidas using club will get a template.
Regardless of who's in the team, the prestige of the league, whatever else. Adidas is unable to make enough different designs to cater for the huge amount of teams on their roster. Only their biggest teams will get new, exclusive templates every year (see: Chelsea, AC Milan, Real Madrid). Nike do the same.
So no A-League team will get a custom Adidas strip.
But if they go to Blades or ISC, they probably will.

Re: Soccer/Association Football Kit Discussion
Well I don't think there are many small clubs in Europe who have Adidas, . Many of them are big. and many of them though also have just classic lay -outs.

Re: Soccer/Association Football Kit Discussion
Stoke City are by no means as small as Wellington Phoenix. But they use the exact same template. I'm pretty sure that design is from the teamwear catalogue.
I don't have an encyclopedic knowledge of all soccer templates. But I'm almost certain other teams around the world use the same template as SFC and the Victory. The Victory one simply has a chevron adorned on it, it's not a separate base template.

Re: Soccer/Association Football Kit Discussion
dStoke's jerseys are basically the same as their club crest, so it makes sense.
Same with HSV they pretty much always played in a plain white/plain red combo. There is no need to do anything extravagant(like werder bremen, I think their design is a bit dodgey atm, and it wasn't a popular move back then when their kit colour were suddenly black green and orange ... (seeing as their is neither black nor orange in their club crest and that the combination is just stinking ugly.)
