Umbro has today announced that it will be the leading kit supplier for the newly reformed New York Cosmos soccer club. As part of the club's rebirth, Umbro has applied its celebrated football-tailoring ethos to a new on-field performance and off-field lifestyle line for The New York Cosmos club.
The white home shirt, with the unique green and yellow collar, will be available in December (£49/$75). It's inspired by the one worn by its star players in 1977, including Pelé, but with the performance benefits of a modern football shirt.

I agree with you with the Chivas USA, LA Aztecs sounds alot better then copying a mexican teams name.
DERP, There is an "Aztexs" already, in Austin TEXAS, USSF Division 2, so, sorry about that. .

"At the present moment, the organization’s intention is to maintain its name and global team image."
Yeah, I'd also like a name change as well.
I don't follow US 'soccer', but that would be legendary!

As a Sounders' fan, I dream that some day we'll have a kit that honors our 35 year history.
ehm thats what i meant
No, you're wrong. They've already filled out the paper to compete in USSF D-2 in 2011. They're just using that as a stop-gap, however.
Umbro used to own the Miami Fusion. they had nice kits for the time.
yea tell that to Real Bristol FC. they've been imaginary for ever
snazzy kits for the americans. shame though their league is a mess. every club look the same you yanks must have eyes to tell them apart. ill be rooting for the cosmos when the appear for real. cheers
eh its alright. it still lacks but i have watched sounders play a match with galaxy. i quite like sounders but we here in the UK dont have the proper channels (or time) to watch a league match so even if i did like it i cant watch it. but ill definatly endure the mediocrity to watch Cosmos play a match. they are my favorite usa club. cheers.
I wish Chelsea were still Umbro, I start pineing when I shirts like Manchester City, Sunderland and Southampton.
I would love to see the Rowdies back - that shirt was awesome!!!
The Rowdies are back... they play in USSF D-2, although technically "rowdies" was dropped from the name but people still call them it
still wear the same kits too
Quatar? Once those fellas there in the Middle East get rid of the extremists that will try to blow up the stadiums, start using it's oil cash to fund tourism instead of terrorism, and above all, field a football team that won't loose to the likes of footballing giants San Marino, Papa New Guinea or Samoa by a combined score of 500-nil (note to middle eastern organizers of international matches between 2 countries that aren't yours: it's DUMB, and you're not helping promote the development of football in your country, so organize some matches that feature YOUR national team, even if they would get beat by England's U12 schoolboys 10-nil.). And have they ever qualified for a World Cup? I think not.
So FIFA should think with their heads and not their pocket books and tell those camel jockeys to censored off until they can actually provide a legitimate, non-financial reason that the FIFA World Cup should be in the middle of a warzone filled by religious nutcases who want to violently impose religious law on the rest of the world.
And above all, who wants to sit in the bleeding desert during the summer? It'll be over 70 degrees, I won't want to pay money to see my national team dying from heat exhaustion and dehydration after 2 minutes! Would you?
Feel exact same...ive never been a fan of leagues such as the MLS and the A-League making teams be represented by one brand only, it ruins the individualism.
yea same as well, but it would be nice to see all the teams with classic looking uniforms.
I have been waiting for this moment for years!
D-2 now has two classic kit designs in NY Cosmos and FC Tampa Bay "Rowdies".
