Community Corner: Reacting to the ‘BY U’ Philadelphia Union kit Share this story It’s been a few days since the Union launched their second kit to the world, and the reaction has ultimately been positive. For years when the Union would release their secondary kit, many people would complain with “Not another white t-shirt.” Welp the U really have outdone itself with releasing the first kit that came out of consultation with Union Creators’ Collective, and there is not an ounce of white in the kit. Instead it leans heavily on the colors of the region the team calls home. Taking the blue and gold colors from the flags of the Delaware valley. The Union’s Chief Marketing Officer Doug Vosik said they “wanted to shock the soccer world.” What better way to do it than put lighting bolts on your players.
