2 things to say to that. 1. awful choice to washout that video. it looks terrible. yes, i get why they did it. still looks awful. i can't even say anything about the jersey because there is no contrast between the shirt and anything else in the clip. can't say i'm surprised that the club fails in the contrast department again. 2. please, more kacie wearing soccer jerseys.
I'm not a superstitious person, but when the team debuted the black argyle, they lost, and then never did very well wearing it is subsequent games. I think the white and silver is a great looking kit. Maybe the white will be lucky for them, I hope...
Should be nice for hotter-than-the-surface-of-the-sun July and August games. Great looking kit except... Is the club crest a different color? Hard to tell from the video, but if so that's a touchy issue for me. That's one thing that should be constant.
I am very likely to buy this one (I was planning to buy a new one this year but I don't really dig the new primary), but I have two reservations. First, it looks hard to keep clean. Second, it looks a little see through. Not sure how necessary it is for me to showcase hairy nipples on national television.
I seem to remember this jersey coming up in a thread months ago and it was passed off as fictional... if anyone finds it, I will give props to the predictor... and want to call out the naysayers... but I am much too lazy for that... As for the transparency, the authentics tend to be see-through more than the replicas... will there even be replicas for this? Either way, take my money.
I never liked Argyle prior to the Black jersey. Despite that, I thought the Blacks were great but as noted above, our underwhelming performance in them (early round US Open Cup loss?) left a bad taste in my mouth. This jersey however. THIS jersey - is flat out phenomenal. I sense a new wave of good karma touching us like the divine, silvery-white angels we look like. Extra points for Kacie McDowell. Back this excellence up on the field, boys. The organization, fans and city are behind you yet again and as always. Back it up on the field....
I read this, although technically she's wearing what looks like the low cut woman's T-Shirt, and not a jersey. Then I read this. The combination of got me to thinking that some of the more flirtatious women I've known would call Inca's "reservation" a feature, not a bug. *** I will only add that I really enjoy summer time in our fair city
One of those old "formal" faux pas that is slowly becoming less and less important or a big deal. If it's hot (which is the point) why the hell not?
Related to this, didn't Robb H tweet years ago about our third jersey. ".....think silver?" I think that was before the black argyle came out. But now I see Robb was either foreshadowing this jersey that was already designed or conceptualized way back then, or just really wanted silver somehow some way and didn't release one until he found a design he liked. EDIT: Here is the only tweet I could find related to that. Great idea....RT @RealDStorm: @RobbHeineman Silver kit in honour of the US Open Cup - like it, love it, or gotta have it?— Robb Heineman (@RobbHeineman) November 17, 2012
I really really like it. My only concern would be trying to read the numbers from afar. But besides that, looks fantastic.
Pretty much the exact opposite of this post: 1. Love the video, well done. Except... 2. I hate that Kacie is in this video. It's about the players and the team. Make it about them. There is no reason for Kacie to be in there whatsoever. In general, Kacie is ridiculously annoying and I wish she'd just GTF away already.
This video to me indicates SKC's intentions/target audience are for merchandise sales (to the whole city, and for both genders - love the local backdrops) and not only about the players and the team.
So.... Does one of you in Kansas City want to pick up one of the white argyle scarves for me from the pop-up store in the Member's Club this weekend?
Love it. Those would really pop under the lights at night. For what it's worth, my white Madrid replicas aren't see through that I'm aware of. Granted, that might change if worn during a hot, sweaty summer game.
