Nice jersey! And the “hoops” that became “half-hoops” now take another chop to become “hoo”.

Meh. I’m leaning towards the thought that it might be time for a complete kit overhaul.

not bad. i like it! when does it come out?

I hate it

While I think it’s one of the better-looking jerseys Dallas have had since the rebrand, I kind of agree with Seanathan. The need for the back to be solid color for number readability (and why not just use a more readable font, MLS?) makes the one-sided stripes, whether vertical or horizontal, just look kind of silly

I’ll withhold judgment until I see it in person.

My only question about this mockup is: why is it maroon? Coz that ain’t red. Look at the contrast between the jersey and the FCD crest….

Jay, that’s just “shading” to give it depth. It’s RED.

You can find previous season’s jerseys in the archives.

Went from hoops to half hoops to this piece of crap.

Looks fine to me – the v-neck is not out of control.

And a slimming look with the hoops heading into a V shape.

…yeah, no thanks FCD. I’ll wait another 2 years for the next one. When I said “sea of red”, I didn’t mean you should screw with the jerseys.

I’m done with hoops, Have not bought a new one since second year and won’t buy another until hoops are gone. Maybe the away jersey will be more interesting. I know you love the hoops Buzz, but I just don’t, I’ve tried to get into them, but I simply can’t which affects my interest for the team in general. I’m sure someone will say how stupid that is, but it’s true.

Isn’t the espndallas sponsorship carrying through next season?

I’d like to see us go back to the later Burn set up with a solid color and understated thin stripes horizontally. Maybe it’s just nostalgia talking, but it is a very clean look.

Kyle, the ESPN thing was two games.

also ESPNdallas has since told FCD, “we’re not interested in covering soccer.”

Looks like the sides are all that cool mesh netting stuff. That should be a comfy kit on hot days. I’d rather have practical than hoops all the way around. I’ll get one.

Any word on the back and numbers (red w/white numbers, white w/black numbers)?

Call me nutty, but I was a big fan of the original hoop kit with the collar. I know it wasn’t practical in the summer heat, but it was distinct. The new layout of the “hoops” looks like the outline of a peppermint heart. I’m all for love, but not on the pitch.

Its the same strip pattern that’s on the original FCD kit. The one with the collar

I’m told the back is solid red with white numbering

I kinda like it. Definitely better than the previous one. Like another poster said, I want to see it in person first.

I hated.

Looks like a step forward on the 2009 jersey

They could play in pink for all I care. Let’s get a trophy.

NotnoNprofit surprisingly, the cut is similar to the jerseys released by adidas. The national team jerseys come in two versions: the player version which is form fitting and has the adidas Powerweb banding on the back and down the sides (supposedly improves endurance), and the “official” version which is looser and doesn’t have powerweb. The “official” versions are available at retail – the player versions are only available special edition. I wonder if MLS will get the same treatment.

On uniwatch.com they have the entire catalog which includes the away jersey. Similar to last year’s but with blue sleeves instead of white.

I’m with Historian. Trophies are what matters.

I mean, Trophies are what matter.
