The USMNT’s 2026 World Cup home and away jerseys official launch date set

The year 2026 is shaping up to be a landmark moment for the U.S. Men’s National Team. With the United States hosting this summer’s World Cup, all eyes will be on Mauricio Pochettino and his squad as they aim to make history on home soil.

But it’s not just the team generating excitement — the jersey reveal has been one of the most anticipated moments leading up to the tournament. After Mexico unveiled its new World Cup kit, the USMNT’s outfitter followed suit, officially releasing the American team’s home jersey this morning.

Strip inspired by the 1994 World Cup

According to Footyheadlines, the strip design is inspired by the American flag, the 1994 World Cup kit, and the 2012 home shirt.

The 2026 USA home shirt features wavy stripes in darker, brighter reds, with navy blue on the collar, cuffs, Nike logo and USMNT crest, and uses a ‘Sail’ (creamy off-white) base.

The Nike USA 2026 home jersey features a bold interpretation of classic American stripes. The most striking feature is the wavy stripe pattern that runs the length of the jersey. Instead of traditional straight horizontal stripes, Nike has created a rippled design that gives the uniform a sense of movement.

The jersey will also feature Aero-FIT technology - innovative cooling technology designed to move more air between skin and fabric, helping players to stay dry when the game heats up.

The USMNT 2026 World Cup away jersey is carbon black with a charcoal gray star motif pattern subtly integrated into the fabric.

All of the Nike 2026 World Cup home and away kits will be officially launched on Monday, 23 March 2026.
