Developed in partnership with the MLS, the Parley x adidas soccer jerseys are an all-new lineup of uniforms that are crafted from an unlikely material: ocean waste. The Parley x adidas jerseys are set to be worn by teams from New York City, LA Galaxy Orlando City and Seattle Sounders.
The Parley x adidas jerseys come as a development for Earth Day celebrations as part of MLS's Green Goals initiative to be unveiled by players on Sunday, April 23. The Parley x adidas soccer jerseys boast a white and gray color scheme that is entirely crafted from recycled ocean waste plastic. This comes as the second collaboration between the brands after last year's sneakers and jersey creations.
