FC Dallas unveiled today the Legacy Kit, a bold reimagining of the club’s 1998 home jersey, as part of the adidas x MLS Archive Collection.
Honoring the club’s 1998 home jersey, the Legacy Kit unites two iconic elements from the team’s early history: the original Dallas Burn name and the classic black stallion crest, also known as Islamico. The black base with bold red and green stripes reimagines the team’s inaugural identity in a striking reverse of the original look.
The kit will be worn for select matches throughout the remainder of the 2025 season, beginning with FC Dallas' match on Saturday, July 19 against St. Louis CITY SC at Toyota Stadium, presented by Coca-Cola.

For more details on the kit, here is the quick description per the club's press release:
The jersey features the Dallas Burn wordmark across the front and centered vertically with the Islamico crest placed over the heart. A special “LH” jock tag pays homage to FC Dallas and MLS founding father Lamar Hunt, whose legacy continues to shape the club and league today. Children's Health is the jersey partner on the Legacy Kit and is featured on the lower back of the jersey, similar to the jerseys of the 90’s era.
FC Dallas is one of 10 clubs participating in the 2025 adidas x MLS Archive Collection. This year’s campaign revives the energy that launched a league, celebrating the bold designs, culture, and aesthetic of MLS in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Along with the throwback kits available in adult and youth sizes, the campaign includes adidas anthem jackets and Gazelle shoes.

Quick BDS Thoughts
Damn.
This may be the best FC Dallas kit in a long, long time. The retro look is excellent and the fact that we’ll see this more than once this season on the field is even better.
I haven’t had the urge or itch to purchase a FC Dallas kit since the Oscar Pareja days, but this one makes me want to get one.
