It appears that U.S. Soccer are going all-in on stars this summer. Footy Headlines has uncovered what they describe as the pre-match warm-up shirt for the USMNT’s 2017 Gold Cup look.

It was discovered earlier this year that the men would be getting an exclusive new kit for just this tournament. FOX’s Rob Stone and Alexi Lalas both have seen it and teased that it would be a crowd-pleaser.

Early rumors are that the kit will feature some sort of hoops design. That would parallel the training top being covered in stars as it represents the American flag as a unit.
The U.S. introduced a new all-red kit this year as their new secondary kit along with their white and blue Nike template home kit. These new threads appear to draw outside of the template box that the recent efforts have been tightly enclosed in.
What do you think about the training top? Is it patriotic enough for you?
