The best and worst MLS kits of all time
With the 2021 MLS season opening on April 16, clubs are starting to release their new kits for the season. So we decided to look back at the 10 best and 10 worst kits in Major League Soccer history.Get more news about soccer training suit,you can vist futbolucl!
Go back through the 10 seasons of the Whitecaps' MLS existence and you'll find a slew of beautiful jerseys, but the third kit they donned in 2012 deserves special recognition. It's not often that a club is bold enough to wear a brown kit, but Vancouver did just that, taking inspiration from the forests of British Columbia. It paid off, too, as that season the Caps became the first Canadian club to qualify for the MLS Cup playoffs.
This 2018 alternative kit recalls the rainbow jerseys -- or, as you may know them, the "tequila sunrise" jerseys -- Houston's baseball team, the Astros, wore from 1975 to 1986. Set against the striking black base, the Dynamo hit upon a modern and intimidating look that offered a nod to the city's sporting history.
The original Fire uniforms were iconic and probably deserve a place on this list, but teams -- and their kit suppliers -- deserve praise for taking risks, and the third kit Chicago played in for 2005 was certainly a departure from the club's red-dominant palette. And by taking inspiration from the city's flag and landmarks like Lake Michigan, the Fire created something that resonated across Greater Chicagoland.
There's a lot to like here, from the thin green-gold hoops to the classic collar, making Dallas' 1998 away jersey (which they wore at home rather frequently) a crisp, clean addition to this list. The Burn name is no longer -- and even in this era of endless and sometimes unnecessary rebrands, that's probably for the best -- but FC Dallas would have a hit on its hands if they brought this one back.
There's no bolder selection on this list than Seattle's 2012 third kit, made up of what Adidas calls "super cyan" and trimmed with "electricity." The result is electric, so hats off to the color-naming departments at Adidas and the Sounders.
The 'Quakes have a checkered history when it comes to jerseys (more on that later), but the primary top introduced for the 2017 season is among the best in their MLS history. Designers' inspiration needs to be authentic and it needs to be tangible, and the way that the offset-chevron pattern of the club's crest was not only integrated into the jersey's design, but was made the focal point, means this was an instant classic in the South Bay.
Adidas supplied three of Major League Soccer's 10 clubs in its inaugural season in 1996, and all three clubs (Kansas City, Columbus Crew and D.C. United) could have held a place on this list, but it's Kansas City who deserves special praise. There was an element of clean lines to all three of Adidas' clubs that year, but the Wiz were bold in opting for a rainbow kit that stood out among a sea of out-there looks that haven't aged nearly as gracefully.
