13. Brighton
The Seagulls come into their second consecutive season in the top flight with two good kit choices. The home jersey is the standard blue and white Brighton have historically worn, and it once again proves that sometimes the simple option is the best option. No need to add in any gimmicks, just stick with what you know. Add in an unobtrusive sponsor like American Express, and you have a really nice kit. Brighton also has a nicely designed crest, and both of their uniforms make it prominent.
Brighton won seven games at home, and lost only four. This was a very good record for a team that would eventually finish in 15th. Since their kits are so similar to last year’s, they might be able to play to the same standard at home this season.
The away option is a minimalist green shirt, a timeless look. In an era where you don’t see them as much as you used to, the collar is a nice throwback touch. Nike can sometimes get in its own way (see the various camo designs they gave teams like Barcelona and Chelsea last year), but it often produces very good uniforms.
Brighton were among the league’s worst away teams last year, losing 12 of their 19 games away from home. Maybe that had something to do with the yellow kits they wore as their away option last season. Green has been known to be a lucky color, so perhaps the new kits can help Brighton’s fortunes when they aren’t in Sussex.
