Sydney FC Third 2019-20 Somewhat an inverse of the home kit, they get points for trying, but that’s about it. I generally like the “dark kit with bright trim/logos” look, but this one doesn’t do it for me. The charcoal colour is growing on me, and I don’t mind the slightly more visible geometric pattern, but the cross-bar/collar-bone thing is really distracting. For me, the biggest issue is the execution of the single colour Sydney FC badge, I don’t think that’s the right way to ‘invert’ it. With a couple of small tweaks this could be much, much better.

Sydney FC Away 2019-20 Easily my favourite of the three Sydney FC kits this year. Yeah, it’s a mostly white kit, but the template is slightly better than the home and third kits. The single button collar is the sort of small detail I like, and the slight angle on the cuffs is a nice touch too. Features the same subtle geometric pattern as the home kit, but used on the body rather than the shoulders. Again the inconsistent blues in this photo don’t seem to be as noticeable in real life. Overall, they should have based the home kit on this.
Sydney FC Home 2019-20 The switch to Under Armour means new kits for Sydney this season. The good news is that the blue appears to be less saturated in real life that in this image, and the colour inconsistency between the logo and kit is less pronounced. I like the subtle geometric pattern across the shoulders, but overall the top half of the template – specifically the cross-bar/collar-bone thing – leaves a little to be desired. They do make up some points for making their front-of-shirt Star Casino sponsorship an optional extra, so you can (and should) omit it if you buy one online.
