Let me start this article by saying I love the Colorado Rapids, and I actually really like their new uniforms that they unveiled today (Feb. 11). However, them calling them ‘Colorful Colorado’ is a bit misleading…
The team says the “Colorful Colorado Kit” will serve as the club’s primary kit for the 2026 MLS season.
A design two years in the making, the Colorful Colorado Kit embodies all the colors of the Rapids, from 1996 to 2026, weaving every era into a bold design that represents 30 years of rich history as an MLS Original. A black base is accented with burgundy stripes on the shoulders and shorts while the numbers and sponsor marks remain in the classic sky blue. Combined, this provides a fresh take on our traditional ‘burgundy & blue’ look by reimaging the club’s past colors and incorporating green, gold and royal blue into a sleek modern silhouette.
In short, sure there are a bunch of colors included, but they are accents at best… The uniform is BLACK!
