The 2019 season of Major League Soccer will kick off next weekend, bringing with it a sea of new jerseys for the league’s many teams. For the Los Angeles Football Club, the new threads will give them the opportunity to take a symbolic piece of L.A. with them for road games thanks to their new “Street By Street” away jersey.
The new jersey does away with the glitz and glamor of last year’s white-and-gold away jersey for a look that reflects the urban grit and gridlock of the city streets that surround Exposition Park where the team's Banc of California stadium is located.
Last year’s jersey featured a minimalist design that utilized a bold and bright white canvas with gold stripes on each shoulder and a vibrant white and gold logo. The new jersey paves over the white canvas with numerous, visually discordant stripes across the front torso colored in various shades of grey, representing the incongruent city streets of L.A.
