Favorite colors aside, IMHO what makes a good uniform is one that is easily recognizable in peripheral vision from one's opponents jerseys.
Most solid colors are fine choices. Multi colors also work when they are near each other (like the Seahawk blue green uniform). That said, some colors look out of place on the pitch, such as yellow. Perhaps if there were a local pro or college team with an outdoor sport that had yellow uniforms, this might be different.
I'm not a fan of uniforms with mixed bold opposing colors as this may cause occasional confusion, momentary hesitations and misplays on the field when opponents have something vaguely like one of the colors. Snohomish and Black Hills black and white Puma uniforms are an example of this. While attractive colorwise, in play head on they are white, from the side they are black. which is easily confused with anything dark in peripheral vision (which is largely black and white).
While an attracive uniform and color, EC Green's new blue uniforms is a curious color choice. Perhaps they ought to change names to EC Blue?
As a final comment, optimal uniform colors and choices may also be influenced by what's commonly available for peripheral items, (socks, underarmor, gear bags), etc. The common colors seen in most stores for peripherals seem to be black, white, blue and dark (navy) blue, and sometimes red. Purple, Yellow and green seem less prevelant. [/list]
