Here's our complete gallery from Jersey & Sponsor unveiling day!
Seattle Sounders Football Club have a first jersey, and a sponsor!
As you can see XBOX 360 Live is indeed the sponsor, and the first kit features Rave Green with Sounders Blue side panels and piping.
It got a standing ovation among the fans and media on hand.
It was an overcast day that came with much anticipation. In the end fans seemed pleased with the look of the kit and many talked about looking forward to seeing the whole thing (shorts, socks) as well as the alternate / away. We've been told that jersey will feature blue with green accents.
Fans got a souvenir pennant marking the event as the left Qwest Field.
You've arrived...in the kit column...Sounders FC.
The 5-year, $20 million dollar deal with Microsoft won't hurt the bottom line, either.

Wow. Great deal and more proof of how wonderful an organization the Sounders have built!
ReplyDeleteNice Jerseys, I approve. They should take a lesson from Arsenal (Sega/Dreamcast) and do home jerseys with the "Xbox 350 Live" logo, and the away jerseys "Microsoft". Allows jerseys to have two distinctive looks and keeps the team's look fresh.
