NTA is watching the Chelsea v Fulham match, realizing this match-up is between one of my favorite and least favorite kit in the EPL. So why not a post on the best current uniforms in world football, a nice soft post before this weeks podcast?
I’d like to set this up in a knock out tournament format. We are going to have 32 kits from the EPL (4), La Liga (4), Serie A (4), Bundesliga (4), Other European Clubs (4), International Teams (4) and Non-European Clubs (8). Each of these “pods” will be seeded and the 8 tourney groups will be filled based on seed. Without further ado, here are the nominations:

1) West Brom Away

2) QPR Home

3) Chelsea Away
BEST LA LIGA KIT
1) Real Madrid Home
2) Malaga Alternate
3) Barcelona Away

How on earth did you settle on some of these? Chelsea’s away? Marseilles third? There are some really good ones that got left out. But I must say, fan-hood aside, Barca’s black kit is one of the sharpest I have seen in a while. Here are my votes.

I know what you mean. It was a tough process. I wanted to have a mix of styles and although Chelsea and Marseille are a bit out there, I still think they look pretty sharp.
