The Columbus Crew has had a number of monikers in the team’s 25 years of existence, but the one most familiar for its supporters and around Major League Soccer is the “Black & Gold.” In 2021, that nickname will remain but the “gold” will be less prevalent when the team takes the field.
On Tuesday morning, the Crew debuted its new “Inaugural Stadium” kit, which will serve as a complement to the black uniform from 2020 that carries over to this year. Gone for 2021 is what has long been dubbed “the banana kit,” which was primarily gold and debuted in 2000.
