FootyHeadlines.com today leaked the first images of the new 2019 MLS All-Star jersey that will be worn in the 2019 MLS All-Star Game on July 31 as Major League Soccer’s best take on Atlético Madrid at Orlando City SC‘s Exploria Stadium home.

This year, the 2019 MLS All-Star jersey features the primary colour of the host city Orlando, a bold and vibrant purple, with white and lilac details completing the look.

With The City Beautiful officially announced as host city for the 2019 MLS All-Star Game back in September 2018, the Orlando community looks forward to welcoming the league’s most talented players in an intriguing exhibition match against one of Europe’s elite sides.

This year’s design is the third consecutive MLS All-Star jersey to feature the unmistakable logo of North American retailer Target who’ve sponsored the event since the 2017 MLS All-Star Game. Prior to this, the event was sponsored by AT&T.

2019 MLS All-Star jersey design

With three colourways – purple, white and lilac – hitting the turf at Exploria Stadium next month, these jerseys are anticipated to be a big seller with the purple design appealing to the hearts of the Orlando City SC supporters.

Featuring a purple V-neck with a lilac trim and the iconic three Adidas stripes in white half way down each shoulder, the design embodies the same look and feel as the 2019 MLS All-Star Game official match ball that was leaked earlier this month.

Indeed, stars and maple leafs are present all over the shirt to symbolise the two countries belonging to Major League Soccer – the United States and Canada.

Unique features on the 2019 MLS All-Star jersey include the Orlando area code 407 on the rear neckline of the jersey. Additionally, a globe-themed jock tag – almost resembling Epcot – adorns the bottom left of the front of the design.

Buying the 2019 MLS-All Star jersey

Back in 2017, Kitbag.com stocked the 2017 MLS All-Star jersey but didn’t stock the 2018 MLS All-Star jersey.

Orlando City UK will contact the Manchester-based retailer to discover whether they will be receiving supply of the 2019 MLS All-Star jersey.

Alternatively, the new jersey will be available on MLSStore.com in the coming weeks although international shipping costs will apply for UK-based customers.
