My concept is more of an edit than a redesign of our current jerseys. All I have done is changed the colours a bit, added a couple stripes. I did this because personally I like the idea of a black or grey coloured jersey. I think that it adds a bit of variety and gets rid of the homogenization of only having a red or a white jersey.

I think what makes it pop as a third set for me is that it's NOT black, its a unique look.
Sure, it has the black elements like pants, helmets and probably gloves, and black actually accents the graphite jerseys and socks nicely. Toss in the thinly striped team colors and its really well pulled off as a third jersey (maybe a new secodary logo on the shoulders)... and it's not just another "let's make it black" design.
