Say goodbye to the rocket pop<\/a>, and say hello to…well, something else.<\/p>\n

On Monday, the U.S. Soccer Federation unveiled its\u00a0latest away kits, which are primarily royal blue with white shoulders. Inside the back of the neck is a pennant tab featuring 13 red and white stripes to represent the original colonies that declared independence and formed the first states.<\/p>\n

U.S. Women’s National Team will debut the kits during next month’s Algarve Cup, which will run from Mar. 4-11. The U.S. Men’s National Team will wear them for the first time in their Mar. 25 friendly against Denmark.<\/p>\n

Last year, the Federation rolled out two new kits ahead of the 2014 World Cup, both of which featured a switch to royal blue after years of using navy blue as a primary color. Despite cries to have the crest replaced by the one that adorned the Centennial jersey<\/a>, the Federation has kept the one they’ve used since 1995.<\/p>\n

The U.S. Women’s Team will wear the new look during the 2015 Women’s World Cup while the U.S. Men’s Team will\u00a0sport it\u00a0during the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup tournament.<\/p>\n
