The Heritage Kit
The Columbus Crew today unveiled their third jersey for the 2025 season, “The Heritage Kit” from The Archive Collection by adidas, celebrating the 30th season of Major League Soccer in Columbus.
The Heritage Kit’s design honors the history of MLS’ first franchise. The white jersey features the original 1996 shield, symbolizing “The Hardest Working Team in America.” The kit also showcases a retro “Columbus Crew” wordmark across the chest and a newly designed ‘96 mark on the jock tag. The back neckline displays the original MLS logo in black and gold. The kit also features the Club’s official jersey sponsor, Nationwide, on the back, paying homage to the Club’s kits in the ‘90s and the official right sleeve partner, DHL Supply Chain.
The kit exemplifies the tradition of the Black & Gold and the City of Columbus, the Heart of American Soccer. It reflects the distinction of MLS’ First Club, the home of MLS’ first professional soccer-specific stadium and all the hardware earned along the way.
