Earlier this month we showed you the first official glimpse of how D.C. United's new badge would appear on their 2016 home jersey in a teaser. The folks at Footy Headlines may have gotten their hands on the full kit so without further adieu, here's what they have:

The subliminated stripes go from collar to hem, and the adidas stripes appear on the torso in this image, the first time they do not appear on the arms of a D.C. United home jersey since 2003. If this image is close to gospel (the Footy Headlines gang is generally pretty good with their stuff) the "Taxation Without Representation" necktape that was in the catalog last year is missing but will hopefully appear on the final product.
When asked for a response the team did not have a comment, but did say that "...the full kit will be revealed and available to purchase for season ticket holders on February 6." This is the date of the team's Season Ticket Holder party.
So, assuming it's legit, thoughts on this?
