Much like Sporting KC’s, the quality of this kit is in the details. the ponderosa pattern is a thoughtful touch and the green and gold color combination looks fantastic.

Colorado is going with the state flag theme again and it looks fantastic. The blue sleeves are the only major change from the previous version, but if it isn’t broke there is no need to fix it.

There is a lot to like about San Jose’s kit. It has a unique look that is easily recognizable on TV, has a pattern that no one else has but isn’t gaudy, and modeling it after the crest is a good thought. Quality all around.
