Ready for their long-awaited MLS debut, Austin FC have launched their first-ever secondary jersey, named the ‘Legends Jersey’, with a design that ties in with the rest of the league, with the club’s verde being used on the EQT-style Three Stripes that drapes across the shoulder.
Having already unveiled their debut home shirt back in November last year, Austin FC now present their away shirt for their inaugural MLS campaign. Known as the Legends Jersey, it arrives in a classic white base with bright verde accents and supporter-created features that are unique to the 2021 secondary kit. In addition to the distinctive bright verde shoulder and collar accents, the shirt also features a matching green YETI logo on the front chest as well as matching green player letters and numbers on the back. The custom jock tag on the jersey honours Austin Anthem, the Club’s first supporters group whose members played an inspirational role in the development of Austin FC. And it doesn’t stop there.
The neck tape was designed by Austin Anthem, and presents iconography celebrating places and themes meaningful to Austin FC supporters. The custom neck tape design icons include a record, taco, calavera, trumpet, guitar, food truck, soccer cleat, bat, and the Texas Capitol building.
“Austin FC’s secondary jersey features design elements exclusively created by Club supporters, and the incorporation of bright verde elements throughout the front and back of the jersey allows the Club to continue establishing a core component of our identity,” explained Andy Loughnane, Austin FC President. “The 2021 secondary jersey will serve as a complement to the record-setting 2021-2022 primary jersey, while being consistent with MLS Clubs who feature a similar adidas EQT design across both the 2020 and 2021 seasons.”
“Austin FC is driven by our fans. In particular, our supporters were instrumental in making this Club a reality. Now that we’re on the threshold of our first season, we honour these supporters as legends with a jersey dedicated to them.”
