Looks good. The all-black SutterHealth is my favorite part Wouldn't wear this anywhere in the East Side, but I think I'm gonna have to add this to my collection. Note to self: get the replica, you can't fit in them skintight authentics anymore
Looks a bit feminine somehow, but simple, clean, and yeah, glad that the Sutter Health logo is monochrome and not too large. Red stripe, eh?
If true, then that's excellent news! After all, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. In fact, the only way to have improved the 2014-2015 San Jose Earthquakes primary uniform (besides adding yet another championship star ) was to add a jersey sponsor, which is what looks to be happening. GO SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES!!! -G
sorry, but i get the history, but hence the word: "history" the template is boring. if it had more to do with our name perhaps. ugh
I like it, too. I think it's much more classy-looking than the "beauty queen sash" style the filth adopted.
More concerned with what they do in the shirt, rather than what the shirt looks like. This will do just fine.

It will be interesting to see the pairing on the away jersey. Red shorts-red socks? Red shorts-white socks? White shorts-red socks? White shorts-white socks? Hopefully they go with some color and not the white-white.
Actually for the red kit I don't mind this at all. It brings back white as the primary color while still having enough red to be a good NASL Quakes homage as well. Well done by the Quakes. And the black Sutter actually doesn't look out of place either given the proximity to the crest.
Yeah, the black lettering of the sponsor ties in the logo. If they had used Quakes blue for the lines over the Sutter medical cross, it would have been even better.
“When people watch this awesome soccer team playing and see the Sutter Health name on their jerseys, we hope it inspires them to think about building healthy bodies and minds; that’s the real victory,” said Arra Yerganian, Sutter Health Chief Marketing and Branding Officer. When they gave him game tape, it must have been the away game in KC.
The blue in the crest and the preponderance of white saves the jersey from looking too fascist. I agree, it's well done. Go Quakes!! - Mark
An only in the USA comment. Sorry, but there's nothing feminine about this. It's a stripe for Pete's sake. Military uniforms have stripes on them, many have sashes too! Do those look feminine? As a nation, we are far more uptight about color and design and masculine and feminine designs than any other nation. The mind boggles! I do like these kits. Go Quakes!! F@#$ el-lay!! - Mark
I'm not rationalizing my comment with "data", only saying what the image is in my mind. I can't control that. If that is influenced by American culture, well, maybe that's because I'm American! By the way, I didn't value judge "feminine", as in that's good or bad, but you seem to be :--). BTW, as I'm writing this I'm looking at two "FC Santa Claus" shirt ads. One is the men's green and the other is the women's - mostly white with red in the middle. I'm just here to report the facts! BTW, I don't think it's the stripe, but the colors that influence how I view the jersey. All white with some red, as in the "FC Santa Claus" women's jersey I'm looking at right now. The red is a kind of medium red, which, next to the white, tends to start to suggest pink a little bit. Last year's away jersey had some gray in it to counter that effect to some extent.
Won't this be the third year of home kit? Last year was the brand new away kit. Seems that the cycle is out of sync with the Quakes. Wouldn't 2016 have been a new Primary jersey year?
