Colorado Rapids Black Diamond Kits

The Colorado Rapids have introduced their special “Black Diamond” kits. When it came time for inspiration to design the kits the team wanted to connect with the fans of Colorado the best way possible and used the mountains as their inspiration.

“In the winter months, and especially on the ski slopes, a Black Diamond run symbolizes the pinnacle of performance. It requires an elevated level of intensity and is matched only by the boldness and passion of the athletes that choose to tackle these ‘expert’ trails. At the Rapids, we constantly strive to represent our state in a way that would make any Coloradan proud. Our jersey is an extension of the club and helps to celebrate the proud culture and connection to our home.” - Colorado Rapids

The base cloud white color for the kit is a nod to snowcapped mountains around the Mile High City. We see angled silver and burgundy lines that are meant to reflect the boldness, passion and intensity of the Black Diamond ski run. On the back of the jersey we see the Colorado C from the state flag. The state flag itself is embossed on the front of the lower tag giving another nod to the state of Colorado.

The red & black stripes remain as that is what Atlanta United FC has built their story upon. We see the number Seventeen in the state outline at the hem of the jersey as a nod to the fans and supporters. On the back of the neck there is the UNITED mark paying tribute to Atlanta’s unwavering perseverance and serves as a reminder to players and supporters that we all carry the city on our backs.

Philadelphia Union New Secondary Jersey

Philadelphia Union revealed their new 2019 secondary jersey. The alternate jersey features the first-ever-in-MLS customizable back tags in honor of the club’s 10th season. The jersey is a simple navy and white color scheme that showoffs a radial design that begins from the signature snake logo on the lower left hip. 

“We’re a club founded by fans and we wanted these kits to reflect that in our 10th season,” said Doug Vosik, Union Senior Vice President of Marketing and Communications. “It’s fitting that we found inspiration for a design directly from our supporter group, the Sons of Ben, and fans. Over the years, the Sons of Ben have used sun radial designs frequently in their tifos, in addition to their in-stadium street art mural, a fan-favorite photo moment on game day. To honor all fans, we invited them into the design process by enabling them to vote on hundreds of back tag designs to decide on the final ten options for the secondary jersey.”  

We see three stripes lining the sides of the jersey that now replace the color blocked navy siding for a clean design. The Bimbo’s partnership with the Union remains seen across the chest of the jersey, while the logo has been changed to a monochromatic navy.
