Ecuador and its updates are absolutely fantastic. I think the road gray is the way to go, but if you were expanding a full compliment of jerseys then the blue would also work great. Though I think if this were the case, go drop shadows on the white/gray and you could just go single outline no drop on the special blue for it to look a little better. I do like the open drop shadow look (ala Rangers) a lot though, but incongruent with the rest of the set. Minor quibbles though. Great set!

I think New Zealand looks sharp, they've always gone kinda no-nonsense imo so to me it works. Some Maori elements could be cool, again, maybe better suited for a third jersey situation. Good one.

Love the update to Aruba. I'm still not sold on Slovenia though I think the green and blue is the right direction. Something about that particular shade of green doesn't jive with me. I don't mind the stars on the jersey but they feel lost on the cap.

I really like the design of Palau but I think the blue jersey needs white outlines. I think the yellow/gold is dark enough to carry white. Would like to see outline on the cap logo too. Though I also wonder if black accents might work too, instead of white. There's a good base here, just might need a few tweaks to really pop!

I really like Sri Lanka! I think this was a great way to combine their super weird color palette (for sports, at least) and make it work well. SL is a surprisingly difficult combo to monogram (recently tried some concepts for my new project) so I like yours a lot. Also a much improved version of their script. Very good!

Thanks! Sri Lanka was a sleeper hit for me in this series, it's such an out-there look and I'm quite proud of how I've interpreted it.

Here's Palau with white outlines, I think it definitely helps:


I would be worried about visibility from far away. The P of the cap already starts to vanish at scale.

palau is much better with the bright colors! I think in lieu of adding white (or black) as steel suggested maybe just a slightly darker blue would work? right now everything is just a little too bright for me. the stripes are a lot of fun and are a really nice local touch

I almost wish sri lanka would lean into the flag colors a little more because they're so unique, but I think you did a fantastic job of incorporating them into their existing jersey design without being too over-the-top. the script is nice, and the cap logo is serviceable, if a little unexciting (but certainly better than theirs in any case). overall a solid look

Thanks! I agree that Sri Lanka's cap logo isn't really anything special, but like Steel said, S and L are sneakily tricky to work with together. 

Here's Palau with the Carolina Panthers' blue, which I think really makes the set work. Thanks for the suggestion!

thought these guys got exploded
