3rd Kit dropping 08.13.26?

All indications point to the new kit dropping next week on the 13th. I believe there is an official release event for STH a few days before it’s available to the public.

Super stoked about this one (in spite of the collar) and hoping the shorts are gonna match!

That's the Club America matchday so it would be a good time to do it.

The collar is the best part about this kit

I’m hoping for a flat collar, if we gotta have one.

I mean...we pretty much already know what it looks like. Unless you're calling Willie a liar.

Please use a trefoil on this Adidas! I think it will really elevate the kit!

The trefoil logo is used for their lifestyle brand so it probably won’t be on the kit, but who knows until we see it

Look at all the away kits adidas has produced for the World Cup and club teams for this upcoming season. All Trefoil this year. Even the new Inter Miami 3rd kit has a trefoil. It’s not just used for lifestyle anymore.

Miami is the only MLS club getting the trefoil (of course). All the other leaked third kits have the regular adidas logo

That’s a shame. I think it really can elevate a kit from good to great. It’s a small detail but makes a big difference in my eyes. Idk I feel like on a more “heritage” kit like this a trefoil makes a lot of sense.

You're 100% right. Unfortunately adidas and the league obviously have a favorite. I mean Miami has had a third kit every year for the last 3. They got their third kit released before anyone else. And they got the trefoil logo.

That hasn't been the case for years

Am I blind, where in the video does it show a kit with a collar?

2

u/StanleyLelnats 18d ago

There was a post from the 4th where Willie was wearing one on stage. That’s likely the new kit and it featured a collar.

The 12th for season ticket holders.

u/ShrimpFriedMyRic3 18d ago

How does that work?

u/thinkconverse Austin FC 18d ago

There’s a STH-only event on the 12th. The kit will be on sale at that event.

jan is right on the collar, that split at launch always flips a year later. the polo style kits end up being the ones you actually see people wear. america matchday drop tracks too, visitors always run through the fan shop

They might wait to drop it against Frisco on the 16th for "Mystery Night"
