The only Major League Soccer clubs to have officially unveiled their new 2015 jerseys so far are the two incoming expansion sides, Orlando City SC and New York City FC. However, that doesn’t mean other jersey designs haven’t already started making the rounds on social media.
(Update: With several jerseys already leaked over the past few weeks, on Saturday one online retailer posted many 2015 MLS jerseys for sale, which have now since been removed. SBI has added images of some of those jerseys to this post.)
The 2015 MLS jerseys are expected to be formally announced during “Jersey Week,” a tradition started in 2013 when most clubs will debut their newest kit designs just before the season opens. Last year, 17 of the league’s 19 clubs participated in the event.
But SBI has rounded up all the leaks that have emerged so far. Some, like the Seattle Sounders’ rumored home jersey, look similar to their previous designs. Others, however, take a bold new approach, like the rumored Portland Timbers home jersey.
Take a look at all the 2015 MLS jersey leaks so far (after the jump):
COLUMBUS CREW:
SPORTING KANSAS CITY:
TORONTO FC (HOME):
SEATTLE SOUNDERS (HOME):
MONTREAL IMPACT (AWAY):
PORTLAND TIMBERS (HOME):
NEW YORK RED BULLS (HOME AND AWAY):
VANCOUVER WHITECAPS (HOME):
PHILADELPHIA UNION (HOME AND AWAY):

What do you think of the jersey leaks for the upcoming season so far? Which one is your favorite? Which one do you hope is a fake leak?
Share your thoughts below.
I am so glad the AMERICAN flag has been removed. Seriously, I never understood it. Contrived patriotism or something…?
Jerseys: Columbus isn’t getting the props it deserves. DC UNITED (not pictured) wins for me (but I’m biased- it is sweet though!). KC is 2nd, Vancouver is 3rd. Toronto’s is nice. Philly’s is ghetto. Portland shat out something odd. Seattle, Houston and Red Bulls… same as it ever was (pretty much).
You never understood it? Really? A sports league that is based in the United States and you didn’t get the flag?
I am disappointed that the AMERICAN flag has been removed from these Jersey’s.
Bimbo? Really? Bimbo? Lucky that’s not a women’s kit, I guess.
New MLS logo is such an eye-sore….
Dallas needs to bring back the white/red hoops. Red on red was so idiotic. Your team is nicknamed “the hoops” and you remove the look that your fans associate you with?? I was outraged when they pulled that crap. I dont get it.
Here is the Revolution’s:

The “drafts” or mock-ups look different than the actual produced jerseys. At least all the ones here are real.
This one is likely real.
So SKC has now done windowpane, stripes, and argyle. I am betting on either houndstooth or paisley for the 2016 secondary.
Wow KC for the win
Those are pretty tight. Definite win.
Looks like graphing paper. And they have a weird snap on their collar.
I’m not a fan of white jerseys in general , and I think far too many teams in MLS have them.
100% agree. I am thrilled the Revs are finally moving away from white for their secondary kit.
“Over There,” how do you explain all the terrible jerseys in Europe and S. America, then?
Wolfsburg is kinda terrible. They look like the xmen. I might still buy it.
Bad taste? Not quite getting where you’re coming from. Adidas is fine for teams whose base design is plain. As soon as you add stripes or different color sleeves, you run into problems with the shoulder stripes. Nike/Puma/Macron kits would give better options to some MLS teams.
I like the distinctive red sleeves on the Red Bulls jerseys… it’ll make it easier to tell how few of them they’ve sold.
If clubs were allowed to decide who did their jerseys there might be a bit more competition and an overall better product…
free market… just saying
I think at this point, the league is getting a better financial package from just doing business with adidas than it would if the clubs negotiated individually. The trade off is a worse product. Until MLS starts doing better with merchandizing, I think we are stuck with adidas.
Can’t wait to Kansas City’s new home hit. They always have one of the best kits each year.
I agree, the argyle sweater design pretty much took the cake and ran off with it.
As a Sporting fan, I disagree. Then again, I think I’ll have to see the players wearing them first before I rush to judgement. I love Toronto’s though. Incredibly simple and sleek.
SKC’s look great. I don’t usually like red kits but I applaud Toronto’s as well. Not sure why but I find Portland’s to round out 3rd place for me.
Seattle, commas matter.
Hopefully the Seattlites don’t read this while drinking their Starbucks! […envisioning $5 coffee shooting out their noses from laughing.]
So I have to be the contrarian here,…I like all the jerseys. I am impressed. They have actually improved upon the Red Bulls jersey which I thought was hopeless. TFC is simple,…and it is nice. Vancouver’s shirt does look like Germany circa 1990,…and I like it. Portland,…sweet. Montreal’s is classy. Seattle is Seattle.
Sorry folks,…but they all look great.
Behind the Timbers jersey: is that yellow sleeve the Crew home kit (with grey accents)? And behind the Impact: the red (with yellow accents) the RSL home kit? Looking forward to Jersey Week.
Lots of Seattle opponents singing ‘come on Eileen.’
Finally they all got it right. No collars on the shirts! Looks nice and clean.
Rumor has it that Colorado’s jersey is nothing but layer after layer of collars.
Gotta look fancy while playing a demanding sport.
The Union kit looks like a practice shirt. That’s all they could come up with?!
The Timbers one is so bad. Maybe it will look better on the players.
Whitecaps- cool, but looks like old german unis.
Toronto FC’s new jersey is incredibly simple!
No sponsor will do that.
i like that they got rid of the grey on the sleeve. their black jersey is way better anyways.
Sends $5000 invoice for jersey design.
What is with the stupid bottom stripe addidas is using? I first noticed it on Orlando’s kit. It really distracts me and takes away from the design. I really think Orlando missed a great opportunity with their kits. If they got rid of the bottom stripe and used gold stripes and accents instead of white, I would crown Orlando as having the most baller kit of ’15.
As for the bottom stripe, I specifically mean the stripe across the bottom of
the Orlando, Seattle, and Philadelphia kit.
You mean the part that gets tucked in.
Real ballers don’t tuck their jersey in…
I mean the part that gets untucked the second a player steps on the pitch unless their name is Beckham and he is retired. And i don’t know any fans that wear jerseys untucked either.
*don’t think fans wear tucked in jerseys.
Haven’t seen too players tucked them in since about 2007. Levesque in Seattle used to, one or two of the Crew players…you still see it once in a while, mostly keepers though.
I like the stripe.
i know ‘come on seattle’ is most likely just another anglophile thing, but it only reminds me of jimmy from south park. 🙂
Just because you have enough fansmakeo do the worst back and fo sound goodrth chant, doesn’t mean you SHOULD do the worst back and forth chant.
Hmmm, that posted a little different that what was on the screen:
Just because you have enough fans to make the worst back and forth chant sound good, doesn’t mean you SHOULD do the worst back and forth chant.
Now it is part of the jersey….great.
Here are some more:
