The U.S. Men’s National Team has long been rumored to be releasing a new jersey as part of U.S. Soccer’s centennial anniversary, and now we know what it might look like.
Images of what is believed to be the new U.S. jersey, which will be part of U.S. Soccer’s 100-year celebration, surfaced on todosobrecamisetas.com on Tuesday. The jersey is predominantly white with thick navy blue trims on the sleeves and an old-school U.S. Soccer crest replacing the current one on the upper left side. There are also red and white stripes and white stars on blue on the lower left and right sides, respectively.
There was no word as to when it would be released, but if recent history is any indication the Americans will debut their new uniforms in friendlies late this spring or early in the summer. The U.S. have unveiled each of their last two home jerseys during that time period.
Here are a couple of other images of the jersey:
What do you think of the jersey? Planning on getting one? Is there any different type of design that you would have liked to see on it?
Share your thoughts below.
i love it!! i absolutely hate our current away Navy shirt with tge white aleeves….ugly.
I’ll join the party.. this needs to be the crest… let’s make it happen.. hey.. we finally got red jerseys right?
This is awesome. I want this crest to be permanent and I want it on the hoops kit as well. Those should be our main two kits.
I think we should have hoop shorts to go with the hoop jersey. Then try to incorporate the baseball cap into the uniform. That could be like our thing.
I agree with just about every nat fan, we need to demand this to be our crest. It is simple, clean and strong…lose that freaking AYSO crest with the goofy soccer ball on it. The shirt is fine but i’d make a couple minor tweaks. The Crest is too high on the shirt and a little too large. It would absolutely crush if it were lower and slightly reduced in size…
The new kit is sweet, I wish they would bring back the Lighter Blue with thin white stripes and white shorts that we wore in Copa America as our third jersey. Does anyone else remember those? They wore them for like 3 matches…the all black kits we had a couple years back were cool too
I am going to agree with everyone else and say YES!!!! Perfect design, cant wait to buy one! I hope they are for sale before the first home game. Also this would be a great time to set a design that will be used for the next 100 years.
I don’t know if we can post outside links, but i googled our current logo and then it seems like someone was messing around on adobe illustrator or something because i found
THIS!

Which would be awesome too
Thats actually really cool. Mix some red, white and blue into the middle and i would take it
That is sofaking cool, dam now I think the new crest is crap…
It feels a bit like a knock off of the french or dutch crests.

But still much improved over the current.
To quote someone else, “dope.” But it would be doper with a collar.
Canada’s centenials last year were “dope” this jersey would be cool with a colllar but i dont think we should become a collared nation going forward, just my american opinion
What will take this jersey to the next level is the AO patch on the shoulder and my name on the back!
I think it’s a great centennial, throw-back jersey or third jersey.
But I wouldn’t want to see it as the permanent first choice.
Thought because of Nike’s and the USSF’s desire to sell a boat load of new jerseys every 2 years, I doubt there we’ll ever settle on a permanent “look”!
Sad but true. Can we just keep the hoops? They are unique, I can’t think of another national team with hoops and use this as the alternate.
Yes yes yes.
Hoops are like stripes. Our flag has red and white stripes!
Make the ours and let Liberia figure something else out.
Make THAT ours.
Looks good to me. Should be the new home shirt. The current shirt is half off, if that’s any indication: http://www.ussoccerstore.com/us00m113810ea.html
I think that link is to a jersey that was replaced in 2012.
I LOVE the red and white hoops. The navy shirt has a nice arsenal type look to it. I don’t care for the plain white shirt
Perfect.
Is there a buy it now option?
That is beautiful.
Can’t wait to get rid of those peppermint stick jerseys. Solid white, solid red, solid blue – don’t care. Just no more peppermint sticks.
