Sporting's new retro jersey available now at MLSstore.com

You asked. Sporting Kansas City listened.


The club's new retro jersey is now available at MLSstore.com, giving fans who can't attend Sunday's Retro Night match the opportunity to purchase the kit online.

Sporting revealed the new retro top last month with photographs of MLS All-Star defender Graham Zusi, taken at The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri. Zusi dons the jersey in front of the iconic Shuttlecocks â€” created in 1994 by the husband and wife team of Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen — on the Nelson-Atkins south front lawn.


Continuing a long-standing Retro Night tradition, supporters will have the chance to purchase the retro top at SportingStyle locations inside Children's Mercy Park on Sunday when Sporting hosts reigning MLS Cup champion Atlanta United FC at 8 p.m. CT. Ticket holders can also pre-order their retro jersey at SportingStyle.com and pick it up Sunday on the Toyota Plaza.



The 2019 retro kit is Sporting’s second special-edition jersey to be unveiled through photography at the Nelson-Atkins, following the release of the adidas Parley jersey in early April. Sporting will continue to forge an innovative partnership with the Nelson-Atkins throughout the year, strengthening ties to a vibrant and growing arts community while supporting a variety of upcoming initiatives at the world-class Kansas City landmark.
