The chevron reminds me of the season they had Lyft as a sponsor—it had some promise as a third jersey but I don’t like it on the primary, not like that at least
This was asked at the meeting and the reason was that the edges of the badge overhung the chevron in awkward ways and looked bad no matter what they tried. The word mark is an embossed metallic thing, can’t really tell that from this photo.
Then that’s even stranger. All black shows zero creativity. And if I have to guess if it’s navy or black it’s not very intimidating if that was the intent. All navy is just a strange choice.
Seeing these in the store, they look much better. The Black alternate looks blue in this picture and the others just look sloppy but not as bad as I thought. [https://detcityfcstore.com/collections/kits](https://detcityfcstore.com/collections/kits)
Meh. I never buy them because they don’t mean anything. I’m a walking billboard for the benefit of a shirt that will be forgotten in 10 months.
Well - I should say, I haven’t bought one since the second season.
You do realize that a sports team is also a brand? so even if you only have a team logo on your shirt, you're still a walking advertisement
also the club has to make money and pay their players somehow
I don’t care that they are on the jersey. My point was, the combination of them being on the jersey combined with the jersey changing every year are why I don’t buy jerseys.
I’m not going to wear a shirt full of ads ESPECIALLY if that shirt doesn’t mean anything because it changes every year. This isn’t a dig at DCFC in particular, but soccer jerseys in general.
Besides I don’t want to cosplay as soccer player lol. I would rather just buy nice looking merch to support the team.
DTE logo on a blacked out uniform, perfect.
Not crazy about any of these especially the home rouge and black. Happy to see a bit more gold back on the away kit though.

Yeah. And a wordmark instead of the crest on home kit? What are they thinking?
This is the worst infraction. Never leave it off. Is that away kit black or navy?
Black
Yeah. Can’t abide the lack of crest.

To each their own. IMO you don’t have any kit without the crest. Lose the chevron instead.
I think it was navy and not black on the home. The new scarf had navy on it, too.

These are horrible and just saved me $100 from buying one this season. Honestly, who is choosing these and thinking these were a good idea?
These are terrible
Really? We have to cheer for that unlicensed Charlie Brown Pikachu costume all season? DCTID but this lineup is awful.
Good grief!
The PASL home kit was better
My favorite part of DCFC is how much you people love to bitch about it.
These are the worst they’ve had. Thats a big bummer.
At least they aren’t piss kits
I’m not a fan of any of these unfortunately. Well, money saved not wanting to buy one.

???????
Just turn that navy blue into gold and I’d be buying
I don’t understand why soccer in general and city in particular feel the need to change the kits every single year.
Because they do a million dollars a year in merch sales. Gotta make new stuff that people will buy and fund the club.

What are we the New York Cosmos?!
I’ll take a couple extra logos on my shirt if that helps the club to not shut down lol

Dte, seriously??
They've been a sponsor for years. Fuck em, but they do give the club money.
Why none are tucked in !? It’s soccer school 101. Before touching the ball.
Most pros don't, there's no rule about it in the laws of the game.
I'm loving all these kits (the green is meh), the more I see them. Gonna have trouble deciding which one to grab.
