Sporting Kansas City’s new secondary jersey for the 2024 and 2025 seasons – featuring a modern, fashion-oriented evolution of the club’s iconic argyle look – was unveiled today.
Fans can purchase the new kit in men’s, women’s and youth sizes with jersey customization by ordering online at SportingStyle.com for pick up at SportingStudio or by ordering online at MLSstore.com for home delivery with shipping worldwide. SportingStudio, located at 1380 Main Street in the downtown KC Power & Light District, will be open for the pop-up store’s final four days this Thursday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and the retail space features a full collection of Sporting apparel and accessories for shoppers gearing up for the start of the 2024 season.
First introduced with a viral third kit during the club’s 2013 MLS Cup championship-winning campaign, the argyle diamonds have become a highly visible brand element in the club’s identity and are now brought back by popular demand for the first time since 2015 as the focal point of a jersey design. The new iteration features a reinterpretation of the argyle to modern, interlocking diamonds displayed in the club’s Dark Indigo color with a repeating pattern on the front of the kit.
Authentic kits are also highlighted by specialized elements emblazoned to both the interior and exterior of the back neck. Above the player's name and number is “SKC” inside argyle diamonds, carrying over the custom mark from the club’s primary jersey for a direct link between the two kits. In addition, a neck tape adorned to the inside of the kits is accentuated with the club motto “Two States. One City. One Club.”
Major League Soccer's exclusive supplier, adidas has provided the club's uniforms since the inaugural season in 1996 and the adidas Three Stripes run along the shoulders in addition to the adidas logo on the chest and the AEROREADY symbol near the hem. Compass Minerals debuted as Sporting's official jersey front partner in 2022 and the company’s logo is prominently displayed on the front of all Sporting KC kits through a First Team partnership as the club's official plant nutrition and salt provider.
