Global kit ratings: Roma perfection, Miami gloss and a pile of botched classics | OneFootball

The new season has delivered a fresh crop of kits, and a global sweep finds beauty, missteps and bold experiments.

According to NY Times, Roma’s away shirt is immaculate, a 10/10 blend of elegance, subtlety and instant club identity. Bayern’s Oktoberfest special charms with floral swagger for 9/10, while Venezia’s fashion-first home also lands 9/10.

The eights include Chelsea’s crisp third, AC Milan’s restored bold stripes, Lyon’s black with vibrant trim, Boca’s early-years tribute and London City Lionesses’ distinct Nike-led concept.

Among the sevens, Pisa go retro, Angel City map LA landmarks, Inter Miami’s white with pink and pale turquoise channels glossy coastal luxe, Como’s deep blue pairs with brownish trim, Trabzonspor’s claret and light blue balance nicely, and PSG lighten their blue in a nod to 1999-2000.

Benfica’s poppy-patterned effort sits at 6/10, neat collar and all.

The let-downs are stark. Barcelona’s fractured stripe treatment jars at 4/10, Fulham’s baby blue and neon pink screams for attention at 4/10, and Norwich’s 90s interference motif also musters 4/10.

Real Madrid’s reddish-pink striping feels off-brand at 3/10. Borussia Dortmund’s convention-busting purple misfires at 2/10, and Stoke’s Spitfire-inspired camouflage looks more paintball weekend than football, also 2/10.
