Sounders Unveil New Evergreen State Kit

The Seattle Sounders FC have officially revealed their new Evergreen State Kit, set for the 2026 season. This jersey signifies a departure from the elaborate designs of previous years, showcasing a more streamlined aesthetic that emphasizes the iconic Rave Green color.

The Design of the Evergreen State Kit

The Evergreen State Kit appears as a simple green jersey, complemented solely by logos, three shoulder stripes, and a blue and teal collar. Upon closer examination, a textured pattern emerges, creating depth without overwhelming the overall look.

  • Primary color: Rave Green
  • Textured hash mark pattern on the body
  • Teal stripes and collar, blending with vibrant blue accents

Shorts and Socks

The accompanying shorts and socks reflect the lighter teal hue used in the jersey’s design while featuring darker blue accents. A key detail is the jock tag, which bears Washington State’s nickname, highlighting the kit’s inspiration.

Symbolism Behind the Kit

Notably, the back of the jersey’s neck displays an outline of Washington State, composed of 52 marks. This represents the Sounders FC’s pledge, through the RAVE Foundation, to develop 52 free-to-play mini-pitches across the state by 2026.

Community Commitment

Hugh Weber, President of Business Operations, emphasized that the Evergreen State Kit tells a meaningful story about the club’s values. It stands not only for the team’s representation but also for their commitment to community access and opportunities.

To further support their mission, the club plans to donate up to $50,000 from first three days of Evergreen State Kit sales to the RAVE Foundation. Ashley Fosberg, Chief Impact and Fan Engagement Officer, stated that each mark symbolizes a RAVE field, underlining the foundation’s aim to create spaces for wellness and joy in communities across Washington.

Purchase Information

The Evergreen State Kit is available now at the MLS Store. Fans are encouraged to grab this new look while contributing to a worthy cause. This initiative not only enhances the team’s identity but also strengthens community ties throughout the region.
