Is it now lamo.
The design's well executed, the jersey's well constructed, the colour palette works well and is balanced, the sponsorship integration is about as good as you can ask for, it's creative and original, etc.
Again it's nothing amazing, and probably won't have a lasting impact either, but it's certainly not objectively bad. Okay is probably the best way to describe it.
I disagree with it being well executed. Sure - asymmetrical designs are a tough sell to begin with, BUT the designers weren't doing themselves any favors by making the stripes mis-match.
There's a balance to be struck between jarring & anchored, and I think they missed it & it's ALL jarring.
I wouldn't be surprised if a heritage jersey actually becomes their de facto home jersey by the end of next season, much like what happened when the Raiders tried a revamp of their home kit to that green & navy kit (which wasn't bad IMO, but just never seemed to resonate with the fans)
