Eight MLS teams are debuting a new third jersey this season.

Adidas released a first look Thursday at the 2026 Archive Collection featuring third kits for Austin, Montreal, Chicago, Houston, Orlando, Philadelphia, Salt Lake and Vancouver.

This marks the third installment in the Archive Collection, which adidas describes as a nostalgic look "connecting past and present."

The new kits will be used in addition to the club's primary and secondary looks, according to the brand.

Austin FC is switching up the club's typical green and black colors by adding a "violet crown kit" referencing the color of the sky over the city during some sunsets.

The Philadelphia Union are celebrating the '90s in Philly with local features including a snake around the Liberty Bell and hems striped with the colors of each local team.

Real Salt Lake references the region's mountains with peaks behind the logo of what the club describes as its "black diamond kit."

Other clubs are adding an archives kit inspired by one of the franchise's previous eras.

CF Montréal is wearing a kit featuring a vintage logo design inspired by the Montreal Impact's 1993 away kit.

The Chicago Fire is also honoring a former uniform with a look referencing the club's 2000 away kit.

The Houston Dynamo is throwing things back to when the club won back-to-back MLS Cups with a collection inspired by the team's 2006 kit.

Orlando City's archive design references the 1994 World Cup with a logo designed to mimic the logo on the tournament's adidas match ball.

The Vancouver Whitecaps are celebrating the Vancouver 86ers on the 40th anniversary of the club's founding with a logo featuring design elements from the 86ers' logo.

Each club is set to debut their new archive looks this season before the MLS Cup Playoffs begin in November.
