Designed to make a bold statement, MLS athletes will proudly don these vibrant kits before Pride Games, which will be held from May through August. This initiative reflects the league's ongoing commitment to fostering a more inclusive and accepting environment for all individuals.
For the 2023 Pride Pack, which includes black tees for each club in addition to the pre-match kits, Adidas partnered with Queer South African designer Rich Mnisi.
