For the past two seasons, the Crew has partnered with adidas to wear eco-friendly kits as part of the Club's larger celebration for Greener Goals Week of Service.
In 2019, the Crew wore innovative kits made from technical yarns comprised of plastic waste collected on beaches and in coastal communities, and transformed them into high-performance sportswear.
The year prior, Columbus sported black & white versions of the jerseys and auctioned off the game-worn kits, with proceeds benefitting Crew partner, Local Matters.
The collaboration between MLS, adidas, and Parley for the Oceans encourages fans to decrease their use of single-use plastics and reinforce the importance of changing human attitude and behavior towards plastic pollution through the Parley AIR Strategy: Avoid. Intercept. Redesign.
