These are the new Chivas 08/09 home and away shirts made by Reebok.The team was founded on May 8th, 1906 by a young Belgian shopkeeper named Edgar Everaert , as Club de Futbol Union.
Their kit was modeled on that of the founder's favourite team, the Belgian Club Brugge K.V., which consisted of vertical stripes and the colour scheme was als modeled after Brugge's (which has since changed their team colours). The first team was formed with Mexican and French players (thus being named Union because of the comraderie between these players)
didn't adidas buy reebok? if so i guess they kept the same design staff around cause this is just TERRIBLE. i feel bad for the players and fans that have to look at this. atrocious
I don't get it. Whenever Nike or Adidas puts out a plain looking kit, everyone complains. Whenever a company tries to do something different, everyone complains.
I realize that I'm probably in the minority here, but there are only so many ways to do red and white stripes. Kudos to RbK and Nike for trying a new interpretation of the classic Chivas and Arsenal kit. I realize that this shirt is a little busy, but at least it doesn't make you dizzy like last year's wavy lines. 4/5
so the point of the away shirt was, according to vergara, to emulate that of the best european team , which is barcelona. if they're really going that route, then why not take this year's design and make it their own? that shirt is much more simplistic, and thus more appealing/beautiful?...
(for me, being of open mind and a chiva in my blood, find the home shirt to be an acquired taste. give it time, and it will start to look more attractive. seriously, just watch how many people will actually BUY and WEAR these shirts in the 2 seasons to come...)
yes, people will buy the kit, but the kit will stay as ugly as it is... and the team doesn't look good, so no reasson for going to the stadium... ah, and there are two new sponsors coming to the kit, so we will se again a "chilaquil", as mr. Vergara refered once to the Chivas uniform.
Well i think that those designs should have wait like 2 or 3 more seasons, chivas has been releasing really weird "new era" kits for 3 seasons now, i think it was the time to release some classic look kit, altough as a chivas fan i must get that home shirt and be supportive, btw rbk should stick to NFL, and chivas should change to adidas or sumtn.
I like the fact there are wonderfull interpretion of stripes mixed in with the blue shoulder blocks and
underarm detail.Plus the Reebok and swoosh are on either shoulder with the stripes going all the way up to the neck.
one concern is the away kit will be clashing with God know how many other kits so the colours should have been different, and I hate the lime green trend that is all around us.Thanks to Chelsea/adidas for that one.
it aint big, it aint clever it is just horrid.
The home shirt Chivas is OK, but I disagree with the away design, not for the somebody says it look like CHICKEN CLUB (America) no, the green color isn't SHIT like the coment club.
Regards.
Really awful shirts, the inclusion of dark back panels poses a big colour clash problem, not that that really applies in Mexico, where kit clashing is common.
QUE MAMADA ES ESA PINCHE JORJE VERGARA, DE TODAS LAS CHINGADERAS QUE HAZ HECHO ESTA ES LA PEOR, LA DUDA ES ¿COMO UNA PERSONA PUEDE CAGARLA TANTAS VECES Y A PESAR DE SABER QUE LA REGO,SEGUIR REGANDOLA,?
LE VOY A LAS CHIVAS, PERO AHORA SI SE LA JALARON CUANDO ESTABAN PENSANDO EN COMO HACER LA PLAYERA DE LAS CHIVAS. COMO NEGRO, COMO LIMON ,NO MAMES PINCHE VERGARA, LOS COLORES DE LAS CHIVAS SON AZUL, ROJO Y BLANCO, SINCERAMENTE SIEMPRE COMPRO LAS PLAYERAS DE LAS CHIVAS ORIGNALES, PERO AHORA NI PIRATA LA COMPRO, MEJOR ME LO CHINGO EN CHEVE.
HABLO POR TODOS AL DECIR: ¡ CHINGA TU RECONTRAPUTAMADRE JORGE VERGARA !
AUNQUE PENSANDOLO BIEN TU MADRE NO TIENE LA CULPA.
i really think that those lines look pritty stupid it could have been way better i also think they should just change to adidas now even chivas usa has a better kit
