Background and Inspiration of the new LA Galaxy third kit

The LA Galaxy unveiled their brand new third kit on Saturday, which stirs memories of the inagural season of MLS when the club donned black jerseys with colorful trim on the shoulders.

I spoke to Carlos Rodriguez and Galaxy club President Chris Klein on the design of the uniform in this piece for LAGalaxy.com.


The selection of the kit was part of a Facebook campaign that allowed fans to design their own jersey. After thousands of entries were narrowed down to just five finalists, Rodriguez's entry was victorious with 30.3 percent of the vote.


The vote breakdown is below:


First Place: 30.3%
Second place: 26.2%
Third Place: 23.1%
Fourth Place:11.8%
Fifth Place: 8.6%
