A new season means a new set of kits for the 20 teams in the Premier League. Who will look the best when they step on the pitch this season?

Deion Sanders once said, “If you look good, you feel good. If you feel good, you play good.” Despite Deion’s expertise in baseball and American football, the principle can be transferred to other sports. A good uniform can go a long way toward making a team (or season) memorable, and soccer is no exception.

Who could forget the Real Madrid third kit of a few seasons ago, with a dragon across the front? Juventus’ pink away jersey was a smash hit in 2016, especially after Drake wore it on Instagram.

With the 2018-19 season on the horizon, we rank each team’s new kits.

20. Tottenham

Spurs are in their second season with Nike as their kit manufacturer, and after a strong (if safe) debut, this year’s selections leave a lot to be desired. The home kit features the iconic white shirt, but blends into the blue shorts with a harsh gradient pattern. The result is a weird, faux-tucked in look that makes it look like the shirt is too small and the shorts are too big. Not a good look for a team moving into a new stadium.

As for the away kit, it’s just as bad. The design is an uninspired copy of Barcelona’s training kit, meaning that one of the best teams in England will be wearing a Spanish team’s warm-up design. The three shades of blue on the kit make it look like a set of pajamas. Hopefully Tottenham won’t put their traveling fans to sleep when they wear it this season.
