New UFA Jerseys. To me, they seem a little busy with all the logos. Add on the ECNL/SCCL Patch on the sleeve. I assume Emory logo across the back. Feels like a walking advertisement for everything but the club. Design is cool. Thoughts? http://instagr.am/p/Cd3P5kMsULd It looks good apart from the Arsenal logo in the middle. Too busy/weird. |

Concorde uniforms are out. I have a picture but don't know how to post a picture on here.
Uniforms are all black with white trim, all gray with black trim, and 3rd jersey is red with white trim.
Keepers uniforms are all orange and all green.

Keepers uniforms are all orange and all green. Are they posted online somewhere? Can you post the link? I think other than that you have to upload photos to imgur or something like it, and then insert the link. I did it once without imgur, but can't figure out what I did.. |

Don’t understand why they don’t use their badge on the chest. The name on the front gives it a soccer town team from 1990 look. |

Doesn’t the Concorde kit have an end date of 12/23?
Seems odd to have a one-year kit to start a two-year cycle.

Where are you seeing that they are on backorder? That’s what Nike and Lloyd’s rep told us at AFU. AFU originally wanted that same kit too. The AFU Blue kit is the same jersey but we’re told that the Red and Black jersey would be delayed till late Fall. Concorde is with Soccer.com now so maybe they got their hands on enough or that’s why they dropped the All Whites. |

Haha! Funny they went back to a Black bag after using the Grey ones so they’ll know the players that don’t buy the new one. Sharp kit for sure but the Black, Grey and a red jerseys just look like them trying to be AFU now. |

Looks like the went with another supplier- SoccerMaster.com- and aren’t with Soccer.com anymore. Still odd that they’d choose a kit that doesn’t take them through the 2-year cycle. |

Where do you guys see the 12/2023 date referenced and how does it not take them through a 2 yr cycle? Aug 2022, players buy uniforms. Aug 2023, new players buy uniforms. Is anyone buying new kits after Dec 2023? Even when my kid played summer league, new players weren’t buying new kits, we just borrowed from players not in summer league. Sorry, I feel like this may be a dumb assessment, and I’m missing something. |

Sorry, I feel like this may be a dumb assessment, and I’m missing something. Someone posted a link to the Nike catalog earlier and noted the end dates for the various shirt offerings, etc. Typically, a club chooses pieces that will take them through whatever kit cycle they have. It may not be an issue but it could be as stock runs out, it will not be restocked. A two year cycle that starts August 22 will be active until May 24. Players grow, lose pieces, new players come in… lots or reasons families would need to reorder. I’m sure Concorde has thought it out and it won’t be a problem. |

So that’s Concorde and SSA that moved from soccer.com. Anyone else? They’ve had trouble getting orders in on time the last few years but I’ve always found their customer service people to be really great to work with. |

I mean black on black is a classic but the darker Nike grey vs the beige and basic Adidas grey is a not contest. Nike wins again. But yes why can’t we add anything other then Black, Red, & dark (Royal/Navy) blue. I’ve got a virtual high five for anyone that can name a Georgia club that doesn't use one of those colors. Only one that comes to mind is TYSA and their green and yellows. |

The only thing I don’t like is the Arsenal logo in the middle. Too much, but we can live with it. |

I get why etc, but to have both versions on the same kit is odd. Then throw in the lloyds soccer logo which is on the training tops, all three are represented. futbol football soccer |

Agree regarding “too common” colors. First world problems though.
UFA with the Nascar look is cool IMO but that Arsenal crest next to their own is.. kinda goofy. AFU nice and clean and proud of their nice crest. Concorde has a terrific and distinctive crest but don’t put it on the jersey (except the GK sleeve)? From what I’ve seen so far, SSA wins this contest IMO. Why look like everyone else?
Does AFC Lightning still wear yellow? How about NASA.. yellow socks?

Here is SSA's. I guess the kits aren't reversible or at least they aren't showing the reversible side if they are. My issue with SSA is that because it is through Capelli they are making you buy the whole kit at $409 that includes a generic looking white ball which no one is going to bring to practice as you would have 18 same looking balls so who knows who loses whose ball. That's just dumb to include in a "required" kit. Also the bag looks to be a downgrade looks wise compared to the Nike bags from the last two years also "required". I'm sure there will be some kids even if they are forced to buy the new bag, they will still use their old Nike one. As far as warmups go, I honestly think they should be "optional" for teams that do not play year round or teams that are not at the "elite" type level. The U16-U19 teams don't even play with club when it is cold enough to even wear them as they only play Fall and late Spring. So the club is essentially forcing people to pay for warmups that will never be used, or if they are used it will be maybe once or twice. These clubs get this deals with people like Capelli forcing parents into buying stuff really not needed for a little kickback for coaching gear etc.... www.ssaelite.com/Default.aspx?tabid=310729 |

Good news for AFU parents...straight out of the AFU Info Guide:
"Atlanta Fire United Bags are required for all players (not required to purchase if you
already have one)."
This should save some money for returning players.
