Dude (wrongly) states that its a tradition for our leagues to wear white as an away team, then when called out that literally the NFL is the only one to really do this historically, he doubles down and starts calling others names haha. I just thought this sub would get a kick out of it as its so wrong to anyone that pays any attention to uniforms
Ive seen lots of expos logo explanations. This one is correct. Everyone forgets "de"

Smart move by him. But he's also wearing shorts....
Plenty of quality, excitement, and controversy in the latest round of games- on field and aesthetically. Here’s my ranking- let me know yours.
Honorable Mention: Brazil - Japan
These are both individually good looks, but together left something to be desired. Brazil’s shade of yellow is too light to contrast in a satisfying way with a white kit. Japan looked good, but they didn’t really look like themselves.
5th: Ghana - Colombia
A better example of yellow on white for me. Both look solid from a distance, with some awesome storytelling details closer up.
4th: Egypt - Australia
This clash of tricolor kits looked great from a distance and contrasted beautifully. It’s let down a little by Australia’s gradient shorts, the muddled pyramids on the Egypt shirt.
3rd: Argentina - Cape Verde
Argentina’s home shirt always looks great, even in this flawed iteration. Meanwhile the dark blue of Cape Verde was a pleasant surprise, especially in the evening under the lights. They contrasted well, a pleasing light vs dark dynamic.
2nd: France - Sweden
The French tricolore is hard to keep off this list, especially in this patterned iteration in brilliant sunlight. Sweden plays a strong supporting role with their traditional look.
1st: Mexico - Ecuador
Brilliant Mexico tricolor, under the evening lights at the Azteca. No need to elaborate.
And 1: Belgium - Senegal
Look, the Belgium shirt probably looks fun on the beach, and alright in a meaningless friendly, but was totally unsuited to being worn in a legendary comeback by the team. Up against an average Senegal away kit, both seemingly chosen for no reason, it was always going to feature here. Norway, with the most boring shirt of the World Cup, are very lucky to not be included.
And yes, I used AI to generate this. I am not a graphic artist. I gave it the prompts I like from kits over the years- white shirt with sash, blue shorts, red socks, subtle details, and the away kit ideas.
Thurmon Munson famously wore an orange chest protector, but I've found other yankees from the 70's & 80's wearing shin guards with orange kneecaps - notably Rick Cerone and Butch Wynegar. I'm sure there were others.
Does anyone know the story behind this?
Per article: includes a yellow jersey that follows the same template as their new home and road uniforms and mimics their 2015-19 Color Rush design, as well as a new royal blue helmet with white horns and matching uniforms that resemble their 1965-72 road look.
Watching Colombia play right now, who always come correct with their uniforms, and just thinking how the sharpest countries all seem to have a template of shirt - shorts - socks each of a different color: France (blue-white-red), Brazil (yellow-blue-green), Colombia (yellow-blue-ted). It's clean, it pops on television, and it instantly identifies your country. Stick with it and it becomes iconic. Netherlands can get away with all orange (and they always look sharp) bc they own that color. Same with Croatia and the checkerboard.
How many countries need to have all blue, or green and yellow, or red and white? There are ~195 countries, and 216 possible 3-part permutations of just the 6 basic colors, never mind white, black, silver, gold, brown... Cmon world! Let's see some color! Let's see some originality!

Spoiler alert: The rankings are hilariously bad.
Don't know when those offiial match kit announcements come out, but haven't seen it anywhere yet. Obviously we're 3-0 in the stripes, lost to Turkey in the dark blue with stars. Ideally, we'd stay in the stripes, Belgium wear the red and black, and I don't see it as reds clashing because how much white is on ours (plus white shorts, white socks) . Just hoping FIFA learns from the eyesore/confusion from few months ago.
Watching the game right now when i noticed this. Why are they both wearing their away kit? A Portuguese red vs Croatian blue matchup would’ve made sense.
Props to the away kit representation though. Seems like a lot of national teams go above and beyond not to wear their away kits.
In the last quarter century or so, the Heat have maintained a good, consistent core look while so many other organizations have rebranded once or multiple times. They’ve had plenty of success in this look across multiple eras too. I think they really nailed it back in 1999 and could still keep these uniforms for decades to come.
Toughest unis in the biz, go coogs.
Nike released two shoes that coincide with their respective team’s Rivalry jersey.
Many NASCAR tracks have changed logos (especially ISC as of late). Do the old or new track logos look better?
I know there are probably not too many racing fans here. But, I am a huge NASCAR fan, but also a huge livery fan, and uniform dork too. So this seems relevant.
So I am going to start posting the weekly spotters guides for the races.
If no one ends up or caring, or feels like it is a waste of time, I can stop.
If you are not aware, some of the drivers rotate through a different scheme pretty much every week, others rotate through about 2 or 3 during the season, and a very few pretty much rock the same one always.
