This is the new U.S. Women’s National Team (USWNT) home football kit from Nike which the team will wear competing for a third Women’s World Cup title in Canada this summer.
This tournament, the replica of the women’s specific uniform will be available in men’s sizes, allowing all Americans to proudly display their support for the women’s team.
The simple, classic aesthetic belies the uniform’s innovative features. Informed by 3-D body mapping, the 2015 USWNT home uniform features a new, fully-articulated women’s-specific fit to maximize natural movement, comfort and performance. The dual-knit cotton and recycled polyester fabric provides a softer feel.

Weighing in at 16 percent lighter than previous kits to help maximize speed and comfort, it also has a breakthrough cooling system integrating multiple technologies to regulate athlete temperature. Nike Dri-FIT draws sweat away from the body to the exterior of the shirt and shorts where it quickly evaporates. Laser-cut ventilation side holes and strategic mesh paneling, including a full-mesh jersey back, increase air circulation and thermoregulation.
The inside back of the neck features a blue triangular pennant design with 13 white stars, a numeric reference to the original U.S. colonies and a visual reference to the American flag.
Two stars stitched above the U.S. Soccer Federation crest proudly signify the USA’s two World Cup victories in 1991 and 1999, while a black triangular insert punctuates the new streamlined, modern V-neck collar.
The names and numbers on the back of the shirt feature an angular, modern typeface, that is a modern twist on traditional American collegiate-style graphics and designed specifically for the US Soccer Federation.
