Nike Reveal USA 2014 World Cup Away Shirt - Football Shirts

Nike have revealed the new away strip for the U.S. Men’s National Soccer Team to wear at the World Cup in Brazil this summer. A deeply patriotic new away kit consisting of three bands representing the colours of the American flag.

Featuring a modern crew-neck collar, the base color of the jersey and the cuff of the sleeves are soaked in prominent red. The upper torso and top sleeves include a bold blue tone, and a white chest band extends over the middle of both sleeves.



Inside the back of the neck is a pennant tab featuring thirteen red and white stripes to represent the original thirteen colonies that declared independence and formed the first states.

“The USA has a profound and passionate pride in their nation,” said Martin Lotti, Global Creative Director for Nike Soccer. “We wanted to create a design that reflects this in a daring, colorful fashion to give them an even more imposing appearance on pitch.”   

“I like the patriotic design and color scheme and I think it will look great on the pitch,” said U.S. Men’s National Team Captain Clint Dempsey. “Hopefully they will serve us well as we head into a competitive group."

In a portrait series lead by Clint Demspey and Sydney Leroux, a group of notable athletes and fans were photographed wearing the new kit to show their support for the team, including skateboarders Eric Koston and Sean Malto; track and field gold medalist Allyson Felix; and former U.S. National Team member Alexi Lalas.

The new USA 2014 World Cup away shirt will be available from selected online stockists including Pro-Direct Soccer. What do you think of the design? Let us know. Join the conversation online, on Twitter and on Facebook.
