I'm not a fan of our badge/crest being a stylized flag, the jock tag being an American flag, and the detail on the back of the neck being the flag of New England. Too many flags.
I wish the red half was on the back too. Seems weird to have it only in the front. But I generally like it.
Agreed on both although the UHC does look a lot nicer on this one than last season's Christmas tree look. Wish the revs had done something like Sevilla's away jersey last season.
Yeah, Blue shorts might've been really cool but still this look is a winner. The last 4 have been winners in my book after a dreary stretch, bottoming out with the Patriots inspired shoulder pads.
I believe the pattern is to switch patterns on primary and secondary in alternating years, so we'll still have last year's blue kit this season.
<emilylittella> What good is a leaky jersey?</emilylittella> Tongue back out of cheek, I really like the look!
I dont like it though it looks better here then it does on the team https://cdn0.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/ZA...ads/chorus_image/image/53211861/unnamed.0.jpg I think that with red shorts its too much red
Agreed. Wish they had gone with blue shorts... which is exactly how I feel about the new USMNT third kits as well. Too much red.
I liked the red jersey from last year, so this one isn't bad at all. Like others have said, if the sleeve and half the back were red, it would have been a lot nicer, but it's a lot better than what it could have been.
I had a strange love hate with last years red jersey. I love that Adidas went out of their way to create something unique to New England, making it represent the flag and all. I also liked that kit on a single person. But there was something about see it on a team of players that was off putting. I never liked how the team looked in it when all together. This one is a little simpler and I guess I'll like it more on the field than the old one. But it is a tad bit boring for the single person... Still getting one, just have to decide which player I want to jinx this year....
I didn't mind the jersey, but it just reminded me too much of the Fire. Which made me want to throw up.
