NWSL reveals new jerseys for all 14 teams ahead of 2025 season
With only two weeks left until the start of the 2025 NWSL season, and the league is showing off its new threads. On Thursday, the NWSL teams unveiled its new secondary jerseys, debuting the bold looks that players will wear on the field this coming seaosn.
Designed by Nike, the kits show off a wide variety of colors, patterns and regional themes. Here's a look at the new jerseys for all 14 of the NWSL teams.
Angel City's 2025 secondary jersey is probably the most location-based of the new kits. The off-white jersey is covered in Los Angeles landmarks, from the monuments (Santa Monica Pier, Griffith Observatory) to the lifestyle (palm trees, fruit stands). The club's signature pink is used in accents on the uniform to pull everything together.
With the club in its second year, the team went with a relatively simple but still eye-catching design. The jersey features a striped, swooping pattern with a subtle texture to it. But, perhaps unexpectedly, the most striking thing is the centered logo, something that certainly marks a change from past NWSL kits.
The newly-named Chicago Stars FC is fresh off a rebrand of its own, and will be sporting a kit to match. The Stars will wear this marbled dark kit at away matchups, with red accents and the pop of its signature blue on the socks.

In the years since rebranding as NJ/NY Gotham FC, has leaned into the minty blue associated with its past. This year's secondary jersey is no different, with the color paying homage to the team's old name, Sky Blue. The new kit also introduces a new black monochrome crest that stands out well on the blue.
Unlike other teams, Gotham doesn't have a name for this kit yet; instead, the team is letting the fans decide.

Like many Houston teams before it, the Houston Dash have leaned into the area's space roots with the "Cosmic Storm" kit. With a magenta-tinged galaxy pattern, the Dash are leaning towards alternate colors, away from its typical orange and black, as the club seeks a fresh start in 2025.

The Kansas City Current are leaning aggressively into the teal in 2025 with its "Teal Town" kit. The all-teal kit features a map of Kansas City and the Missouri River overlayed over the jersey's front, with the crest marking the spot where the club's CPKC stadium sits on the map.

The North Carolina Courage debuted a pink monochrome jersey for 2025, the "Believe" kit. Although it's a relatively simple kit, the dual-color pattern gives it a visually appealing texture. On the bottom right side of the jersey is a circle with "Esse Quam Videri," the state motto of North Carolina, which means "to be rather than to seem."
Fresh off the 2024 NWSL Championship, the Orlando Pride is debuting a bright purple kit for next season. The Decennial kit, celebrating the club's 10th year, feature a fun textured pattern and light blue accents. The centered crest is iridescent and features a star over the top — spoils of the club's first-ever championship last season.
The Portland Thorns went dark for its new jersey, part of the "Back in Black" kit. The away jersey features a blend of black and red accents, with the red invoking fiery embers, per the team.
Racing Louisville returned to the earth for its new jersey, unveiling the Roots kit on Thursday. The green kit features a subtle texture and a lily design on the side panels. The club is also leaning into the theme by partnering with a local nonprofit to plant trees in the Louisville area.

San Diego had one of the best kits of last year with its "Del Sol" kit; now, the club is adding to its rotation with the ocean-inspired Altamar kit. The all-blue kit features a sunlit water design across the jersey and lighter blue accents, with dark blue shorts and socks to match.

A year after rebranding back to Seattle Reign FC, the club has leaned into gold as a new accent color. This year's kit, the "Rise" kit, features a golden-tinted jersey with abstract rays, which the club says was inspired by the city's skyline and the rising sun in the Pacific Northwest.

In its second year since returning to the league, the Utah Royals went for a bold kit that evokes the Great Salt Lake and the other natural elements of the Salt Lake City area. The jersey also reimagines the crest, reformatting it into the shape of the state of Utah. As part of the kit, the club has also donated $10,000 to the preservation of the Great Salt Lake.
Last year, the Washington Spirit introduced yellow as an accent color, and is leaning into it even more this year. The Spirit's new "Shockwave" kit features a vivid yellow jersey with green accents, a bold and eye-catching look for this season's away matchups.

Cori Dyke scores late goal in the Orlando Pride's 1-0 win over the Houston Dash
Cori Dyke scored her first National Women's Soccer League goal in the ninth minute of second-half stoppage time to give the Orlando Pride a 1-0 win over the Houston Dash on Saturday night. Elsewhere in the NWSL, the Kansas City Current won 2-1 on the road over NJ/NY Gotham FC; Angel City was held to a 2-2 tie by the Chicago Stars in Los Angeles; and Bay FC defeated the Portland Thorns 1-0 at home. In the dying moments at Inter & Co Stadium, the ball ricocheted to Dyke's feet after a save from Dash goalkeeper Abby Smith. Dyke, who was subbed into the game at halftime, settled the ball quickly with one touch and unleashed a shot inside the near post on the half volley. A defensive Houston side, which started the game without a recognized center forward, withstood a barrage of pressure from Orlando in the second half. The Pride (7-3-1) finished with 22 shot attempts. Smith made seven saves, while nine shots were blocked by Dash players. The Dash (3-6-2) are now winless in three games. Temwa Chawinga and Michelle Cooper scored and notched an assist each as the first-place Kansas City Current defeated NJ/NY Gotham FC 2-1 at Sports Illustrated Stadium on Saturday. The Current (9-2-0), who have won four in a row, took an early lead with Cooper opening the scoring in the third minute. The U.S. women's national team forward drilled the ball into the net from 10 yards out after Chawinga had intercepted a pass from Emily Sonnett just outside the box. Cooper returned the favor when her low cross was finished off by Chawinga to make it 2-0 in the 11th minute. Chawinga took one touch to evade Gotham goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger, before finishing. Gotham (3-5-3) pulled a goal back in the 11th minute of stoppage time via an own goal by Vanessa DiBernardo. Rose Lavelle made her first appearance of the season for Gotham after ankle surgery in December 2024. The U.S. Olympian came off the bench to replace Taryn Torres in the 74th minute. Mary Alice Vignola scored the equalizer in the 80th minute and Angel City salvaged a 2-2 with the Chicago Stars. Angel City (4-4-3) took a 1-0 lead into halftime on Kennedy Fuller's goal from inside the box in the 29th minute. Chicago (1-8-2) made it 1-1 just before the hour mark when an attempted cross from substitute Nadia Gomes took a wild deflection and looped over the head of goalkeeper Angelina Anderson. The Stars went up 2-1 up when Ally Schlegel scored from 25-yards out in the 66th minute. Anderson got one hand to the shot but could only tip the ball onto the crossbar and into the back of the net. Vignola rocketed in a rebound from close range to make it 2-2. The tie was Alexander Straus' first game as Angel City head coach. Straus, who has never previously coached in the NWSL, arrived from Bayern Munich last week. Alyssa Malonson scored her first career NWSL goal and Bay FC overcame the Portland Thorns 1-0 at PayPal Park. The Bay defender ran onto a pass by Penelope Hocking and smashed the ball into the roof of the Portland goal from a tight angle in the 39th minute. The Thorns finished the game with 55% possession and with 16 shots to Bay's 10. The loss ended a five-match undefeated streak for Portland (4-3-4). While Bay (4-4-3) picked up its fourth clean sheet of the season. Bay is the first team to prevent Portland from scoring since April 18.
