U.S. Soccer and Nike on Monday unveiled new national team kits ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The collection includes two primary jersey, stars and stripes, as well as a new goalkeeper uniform.
The United States men's national soccer team is expected to debut the new uniforms later this month in Atlanta, according to U.S. Soccer.
Nike said the new designs were developed with input from players, including on the weight of the fabric and seam placement. The athletes also weighed in on the jerseys' breathability and mobility so they can focus on their performance, Nike said.
"A national team jersey represents the pride of wearing the crest, not just for players on the field, but also for the fans who support them every step of the way," Dave Wright, chief commercial officer of U.S. Soccer, said in a news release on Monday.
Inside each jersey, there's a hidden "Inner Pride" mark in the collar. It's meant to symbolize the motivation players carry onto the field, U.S. Soccer and Nike said. New fonts, called the Stars and Stripes typefaces, were also created specifically U.S. Soccer to use exclusively on kits and other designs in the years to come.
