I wonder if it’s the same design as the first home with new colors?

mattbakerstl.bsky.social•75 days ago

Nah, zero chance we’ll see the same design. That was a custom homage to the panels on the Arch.

elliotmeyer.bsky.social•75 days ago

For me, all the more reason to get more life out of it

mattbakerstl.bsky.social•75 days ago

It’ll live on forever and be the most purchased CITY kit for quite a while I think… but gotta play by the Adidas/MLS rules still.

I’m fully bought in that our club will have a vibrant and unique new one too.

tyadmire.bsky.social•75 days ago

I’m personally excited about this.

gdubbstl.bsky.social•75 days ago

Pretty disappointing news IMHO. Guess it won’t be that much different than the OG kit which was City Red with a diagonal stripe design.

mattbakerstl.bsky.social•75 days ago

Diagonal doesn’t have to mean simple Red w/blue diagonals. But if you set the baseline at that, I can almost guarantee you’ll be pleasantly surprised, knowing the creatives at the club who are in charge of these designs.

Saw the 5 stripes... An extension of the shield/crest?

mattbakerstl.bsky.social•75 days ago

I’d be shocked. Atlanta has made the 5 stripes a part of their brand. Would be very surprised to see CITY do something there.

jhmuhrer.bsky.social•75 days ago

Thought that was stepping on toes (it a while foot) when I read the speculation from a couple weeks ago. Dismissed it. But, seeing that the crest/shield has that it could exist without crowding into ATLUTD territory.

mattbakerstl.bsky.social•75 days ago

Maybe. I think it’s reading into something that’s a coincidence in the crest though. It’s an abstract arch/confluence design.

jhmuhrer.bsky.social•75 days ago

Or maybe, something like this

jjenks.bsky.social•75 days ago

Not a big fan of the template Addis is using for kits this year. Maybe the CITY kit looks good regardless. I'd prefer a sash kit.

ghalv23.bsky.social•75 days ago

So like this?

mattbakerstl.bsky.social•75 days ago

Could be, but there’s a different template being speculated on based on the SD & SKC leaks too. I believe they’re in this family of kits:

5 stripes? Looking at the shield you can extend five (generally diagonal but non-parallel) stripes from the river+arch design. Apologies for the quick phone only markup.
