    Charlotte FC officially unveiled their "Fortress" away kit, following a teaser involving new signing Wilfried Zaha. The Ivorian, settling into his new city, had earlier exchanged jerseys with Charlotte Hornets' Brandon Miller, sparking speculation about the new design. Despite fan curiosity, the club remained tight-lipped until this official launch, putting an end to the rumors and showcasing their bold new look for the upcoming season.

    The new design, created by Adidas, is a V-neck jersey with black, white and blue accents across the shirt. It has a predominantly dark base, combined with silver for all logos and the three Stripes on the shoulders. Lighter blue accents add a little bit of definition with a picture of a fortress on the back of the neck and a shield on the bottom right on the front. The club’s main sponsor, Ally, features prominently on the front while their secondary sponsor, Rugs.com, features on the right hand sleeve.

    WHAT LIES AHEAD FOR CHARLOTTE FC?

    Charlotte FC finished fifth in the Eastern Conference at the end of the 2024 season but saw their hopes of a first MLS Cup dashed by Orlando City SC in Round One. However, it was their first appearance in the playoffs and fans are hoping for a better showing especially given their performances in preseason. They’ve only lost once so far, beating LA Galaxy and Sporting KC in the process and have had a good offseason, signing Wilfried Zaha and a few other stars. It has many excited for their MLS opening game against Seattle Sounders on Feb. 22.
