NASL LA Aztecs
Before Beckham touched down in LA, there was another famous player that graced the city with their football presence. George Best was one of the lucky ones, and I use that term loosely, to don a kit for the NASL Los Angeles Aztecs. Best was a great player, do not get me wrong, but the kits they wore were absolutely horrible.
Manufactured by Copa, the kits were nothing more than a white top with blue and orange around the sleeves and collar. That’s not the worst part. The name Aztecs was bad enough, but to not have any sort of crest or badge for the team made this kit look much worse than it should have been. Looking back at the era of kits, none were extremely nice looking. However this one was bad. Luckily for the US fans, Best could make any kit look great with his play. But without him, this kit is nothing more than a 1 out of 5. Horrible.

Why do you hate NASL uniforms so much? I like the Aztecs jersey. The lettering is sleek and futuristic. The colors are subtle and stylish. It’s really nice.
Yes, there is no crest on the front, but so what? Where is it written that every jersey has to have a crest on the front?

They just don’t look all that good to me. Granted I did not grow up watching them and the league was defunct before I was born, but they just do not look like good to me. Maybe I’m a bit more used to the modern kits, but none of the NASL kits look good to me.
As for the crest, it would help this kit out, not necessary though.
