UNVEILING THE EVERGREEN STATE KIT
Get ready to embrace the vibrant spirit of Washington with our latest primary jersey: The Evergreen State Kit. This striking kit is not just a piece of apparel; it represents the rich culture, colors, and essence that make both Seattle and the Sounders unique.
Nestled by the water’s edge, this jersey serves as a tribute to Seattle's deep-rooted heritage, its unwavering passion for soccer, and the profound bond between nature, community, and the beautiful game.
In a significant gesture of goodwill, this kit also highlights the mission of the RAVE Foundation, which operates as the charitable backbone of the club. The foundation is dedicated to creating soccer fields that foster free play, empower young individuals, and enhance community ties through the transformative power of football.
As part of the club's Purpose Beyond the Pitch initiative, we’re excited to announce that for the first 30 days after the launch of "The Evergreen State Kit," up to $50,000 will be donated to the RAVE Foundation. This organization firmly believes that every child should have access to a free place to play, belong, and dare to dream, emphasizing that play is a fundamental right, not a privilege.
Drawing inspiration from the elegance, simplicity, and class inherent in the global game, The Evergreen State Kit is crafted with intention. Its clean lines and minimalist design resonate with the iconic Rave Green color, embodying the community it represents.
The kit showcases Rave Green as its dominant hue, complemented by delicate blue and aqua accents that symbolize the lush forests and shimmering waterways of Washington. To add an extra touch of sophistication, a premium flat-knit pattern adorns the cuffs and collar, enhancing the visual texture and overall aesthetic of the jersey with thoughtful detail.
For a unique finishing touch, a custom jock tag labeled "The Evergreen State" is positioned on the front left corner, while the back neck features an outline of Washington State embellished with 52 sparks. These sparks symbolize the 52 mini-pitches that the RAVE Foundation aspires to create across the state by the conclusion of 2026.
This jersey tells stories—like that of Oblé Reed, a local music artist who grew up in Seattle, attended the inaugural match of the Sounders, and discovered early on that soccer could be a pathway to dreaming bigger.
