The new Sporting KC Men’s Americana Top will be available for matchday pre-order at SportingStyle.com beginning Monday, July 1.

Sporting Kansas City Academy product Gianluca Busio showcases the Americana Top above, photographed at the iconic Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri.


Busio dons the kit in front of an exhibit called 30 Americans, drawn from the acclaimed Rubell Family Collection. Showcasing American experiences as told from the distinct perspectives of 30 of the most important African American artists of the past four decades, 30 Americans includes Glenn Ligon’s America, included in the image above. This featured exhibition at the Nelson-Atkins closes Aug. 25.


The Americana Top is the club’s fourth special-edition jersey to be unveiled through photography at the Nelson-Atkins, following the release of the adidas Parley jersey, Retro Top and Pride Top earlier this year.
