As I said in the Paul Martin thread, they look very similar to the US Men's Soccer team jerseys.

Who designs these? Are they trying to look as awful as possible?

I don't mind the blue one. I really do not like the white one.

Could these be any more unimaginative? I'm sorry, the jerseys are boring.

For comparison, here are new Team Russia jerseys (Nike slim-fit from ultra-lightweight polyester. The red one weighs 424 grams, the white is - strangely - heavier. It weighs 444 grams. Translate into the US weird units by yourselves. :) ):

I think Russia's look alright. Ours look tacky and stupid and cheap. Why is it so hard to just go with a simple, classic design? I didn't like the blue ones in 2010 either but they look amazing compared to these.

Sounds like all the numbers/logos are screen printed too. Yuck. I was looking forward to buying one but I just can't now.

I don't really like the reflective stars, but I think the Blue Jersey is awesome. The white one is ok.

Does everyone really dislike them so much? They're pretty simple, I like the crest. The 2010's were better i'd say, but these are still cool.

I like the blue. The white reminds me something EA Sports would use as a generic for National teams.

I like the crest too. Something about fake laces makes it appear tacky to me anyhow.

The logo just looks like something from the USPS.

I know there's a joke in there somewhere about delivering checks.

I've worn beer league jerseys that were better looking than this. Actually, I don't know if I've ever worn a jersey that looks this bad.
