Why aren't we using the nice red kit the ladies have?

It is absolutely absurd that Nike can't even figure out how to get these great women's kits to the men, too, when all the design work is already done and they even sell a men's version of the kit at retail. Just make a few more and ship them to the MNT! 

How can it possibly be this hard?

It’s a fuckin joke, but could be worse… those Puma WC kits were atrocious.

And judging from the FIFA 26 WC logo, in a few years we may end up just getting a blank kit, with no logo in 2 random colours.

But seriously, it doesn’t take much to get a bit creative and come up with markedly better designs like some of @TGAA_Star concept kits posted above.  This, combined with the lucrative deal signed with Nike is embarrassing.

Nothing to do with creative. This is Nike's business plan based on their tiering of countries/clubs to determine service levels.

Deal was signed with the women's team first in mind by both the CSA & NIke and then prioritized by Nike given the initial years of the deal included 2 Olympics and a World Cup.

So, they have gotten 2 relatively bespoke kits and 1 teamwear template kit so far. The women's World Cup kit is viewed by most Canadians as probably the best Canadian kit ever and one of the best for this World Cup by non-Canadians.

The men were planned to get teamwear template kits till World Cup 26 can be seen in the horizon. So, it has been disclosed the first customized kits for the men will be coming next year.

Not confirmed, but it would line up with the recent official announcement of the new black kit switching to this template...

The red kit is quite possibly the ugliest thing I have ever seen. Praying this one never sees the light of day.

They are wearing the new red for tonight’s game

EDIT - looks like a training shirt

Hmmm…. 75% off because not much is going on / we’re not playing well, or because inside knowledge of new kits on the way?

These are the older kits now. We had a different kit last year

May have to see if SVP has them too

Is that true? I don't think the Men's team ever wore the new reds. I think it was just the Women's team.
