LOS
ANGELES, July 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Today,
Herbalife and the LA Galaxy unveiled the club's new jersey, the
Retrograde Kit, as part of the adidas x MLS Archive Collection.
Herbalife has sponsored the Galaxy's jersey for 17 consecutive
seasons, the longest-running jersey sponsorship in MLS history. The
Retrograde Kit goes on sale today, July
16th on MLSStore.com, adidas.com and
the LA Galaxy Team Store at Dignity Health Sports Park.
"Herbalife is incredibly proud to continue
supporting the LA Galaxy as their long-time partner, and to be part
of this voyage that celebrates our shared commitment to health,
performance and community."
To bring out-of-this-world excitement surrounding the new jersey
to soccer fans near and far and reinforce the Galaxy's ambition to
reaching new heights on and off the field, the Retrograde Kit was
launched into space through an exciting collaboration with Sent
Into Space. The launch is available on Herbalife's YouTube Channel
and Instagram page.
"We are incredibly proud to continue supporting the LA Galaxy as
their long-time partner, and to be part of this voyage that
celebrates our shared commitment to health, performance and
community," said Ibi Montesino,
managing director of Herbalife North
America. "Utilizing this unique launch experience gives us
an opportunity to create excitement for this new jersey and the
remainder of the 2024 season among our independent distributors, LA
Galaxy players, and the fans."
Pulling from the iconic LA Galaxy home kit from 1996, the
Retrograde Kit celebrates the club's rich history by blending
nostalgia and contemporary flair throughout its design. The kit
highlights the '96 crest, the club's first logo, the iconic "Los
Angeles Galaxy" mark on the front of the jersey and features the
Herbalife logo on the back of the jersey. A quasar pattern running
down the middle of the jersey signifies a reinterpretation of a
classic element with the Galaxy's modern visual identity.
The third kit will also display five stars on the jersey to
represent the LA Galaxy's record five MLS Cups (2002, 2005,
2011, 2012, 2014). The Retrograde Kit will be used by the LA Galaxy
for select matches during the remainder of the 2024 campaign.
"We are thrilled to present the LA Galaxy's newest jersey, the
Retrograde Kit, and honored to be included in the MLS Archive
Collection featuring our partners adidas and Herbalife," said LA
Galaxy President of Business Operations & Chief Operating
Officer Tom Braun. "We look forward
to wearing this third jersey, which blends nostalgia and modern
elements from the Galaxy's past and present beginning tomorrow,
Wednesday, July 17 against the
Colorado Rapids at Dignity Health Sports Park."
