- Collaboration: Adidas partnered with Parley to create special-edition MLS jerseys from recycled ocean waste.
- Teams: Four MLS teams (LA Galaxy, New York City, Orlando City, and Seattle Sounders) will wear these kits on April 23rd.
- Purpose: The kits are part of the MLS's Greener Goals initiative and Earth Day celebrations.
Teaming up with Parley, the eco company that already brought us special-edition Bayern Munich and Real Madrid uniforms late last year, the MLS today revealed that four of its most important teams (LA Galaxy, New York City, Orlando City and Seattle Sounders) will sport similar garms in their games on Sunday, April 23.

This image shows the special Adidas Parley jerseys for LA Galaxy and Seattle Sounders.
Celebrating Earth Day and the MLS's Greener Goals initiative, the special-edition Adidas Parley kits will be worn in two of Sunday's biggest games. They are based on the most recent Adidas pre-match template, used by the likes of Germany, Real Madrid, Chelsea and many more, and come in white-grey and grey-white, respectively.
Just like the previous Bayern Munich and Real Madrid shirts, the Adidas Parley 2017 MLS kits feature monochromatic club logos, here in each club's respective primary color. An Adidas x Parley jock tag can be seen on the lower left above the hem.

"Every second breath we take is generated by the oceans. And still, we are at war with the sea,” said Cyrill Gutsch, founder of Parley for the Oceans, in a statement. “Now is the time to negotiate peace with our life support and to invent our way out of this mess. Soccer can lead the way. It shows what we can achieve with the right balance of creativity, collaboration and technology."
A collaboration between Adidas and Parley, the special-edition MLS kits are made of recycled ocean waste. It's not expected that the jerseys will be available for sale.

New Material for UEFA Champions League Patches?
Based on images from Manchester United's recent posts, it appears that the Starball and UEFA Foundation sleeve patches for the 26-27 UEFA Champions League might be moving away from the traditional velvet material. Instead, they seem to feature a noticeably thinner and flatter composition.
Without high-resolution close-ups, the exact material specifications cannot be fully confirmed just yet.
However, this potential shift remains unconfirmed, as other clubs have not displayed this change. Real Betis, for instance, still appeared with standard velvet-textured patches during their recent 26-27 Champions League portrait photoshoot sessions.
We will have to wait for official confirmation and close-up looks once the competition gets underway. Big thanks to @jerseystory_vn for the collage.
Almere City 26-27 Cup Kit Released

The Craft Almere City 2026-27 Cup shirt features a black base with subtle tonal cherry blossom branch motifs across the front. Mint green and pastel pink details add contrast, with a mint crew-neck collar and sponsor branding joined by a pink monochrome club crest, Craft logo and sleeve trims.
