The United States Soccer Federation and Nike unveiled the kits the USMNT will wear at this summer's FIFA World Cup, drawing direct inspiration from the American flag. Two distinct jerseys were revealed: a home kit with curving red and white stripes that echo the team's 2012 look, and a navy away kit subtly decorated with star motifs.
For the first time, the same crest and kit design will be used across all 27 U.S. Soccer national teams, including the USWNT. U.S. Soccer said players were involved in the process through design workshops and listening sessions, where they weighed in on details such as fabric weight, seam placement, mobility and fit.
Dave Wright, chief commercial officer of U.S. Soccer, framed the release as a unifying moment: "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." He added that having the 2026 World Cup come to the U.S. makes the shared kit especially meaningful as supporters and players prepare for the tournament.
Design details include an "Inner Pride" mark inside the collar meant to symbolize each player's internal motivatio
