NWSL 2025 jerseys ranked, from dreadful to 'my bank account is cooked'
The 2025 NWSL kits are here, and whew, buddy, there's some serious heat.
If you're new here, the folks at For The Win don't take themselves too seriously. (It's me. I'm folks.) So, whenever there is something on which we can provide our expert but clearly biased opinion, we will do it. That includes helmets, jerseys, NWSL team names and yes, kits.
I apologize in advance for the shenanigans about to ensue; you've been warned. If a kit is awful, I'm going to say it. If it's just meh, I'm saying it. If a kit would make me want to empty my savings to purchase it and dozens of accessories to match, I'm definitely saying that with absolutely no shame.
Here are the 2025 NWSL kits ranked, from dreadful to "my bank account is cooked":
14. Racing Louisville FC
I'm just going to say it. These are dreadful. I get the sentiment with the "roots" tie-in and the green colors, but these kits look like something you would wear to a company retreat you didn't ask to go to.
13. Portland Thorns FC
Portland really tried here, and I can appreciate the dope setup with its players. (Photos are great.) However, the kits are giving Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, and I can't un-see it.
12. Bay FC
Did you even try Bay FC? What is this? Turn right back around and try again.
11. Chicago Stars FC
I really tried to like these. I loved the sort of futuristic vibes they gave off. However, the more I digested this kit, the more I hated them. It's a NOPE for me. 0/10. Would not recommend it.
10. Angel City FC
I'm a huge fan of intricate details on jerseys with unique tie-ins. However, so much is happening on this jersey that it overpowers the sweet color scheme. And the shorts? GROSS. Black shorts were right there.
9. Seattle Reign FC
Alright, Seattle. This isn't bad. I'm not mad about this setup. The jersey by itself is something I could see with a nice pair of pants or jeans. It works.
8. Utah Royals FC
You had me in the first half, Utah. The jersey by itself? Exquisite. The full kit? Not so much. That's way too much pattern for my liking. Good try, though.
7. San Diego Wave FC
I'm a sucker for a good aquatic theme. Waves for the Wave? YES. MY KIND OF CARRYING-ON. I will be taking no further questions. I said what I said.
6. Gotham FC
I don't know. It just works. I don't know what else to tell you. The complete kit looks so SMOOTH.
5. Orlando Pride
The purple is magnificent. It looks so regal. Truly a fantastic colorway for the reigning NSWL champs. The full kit is so nicely done. ZERO COMPLAINTS.
4. North Carolina Courage
Don't mind me. I'm just currently SCREAMING over this pink kit. I need a moment to digest how lovely this looks. I never knew I needed something like this in my life until now.
3. Houston Dash
Admittedly, this kit got a massive bump on my list because I'm a Texas native—sue me. But you gotta admit that pink pops and the full kit are so lovely—my compliments to the designer.
2. Washington Spirit
WHOOOOOOA, MY GOSH. Whatever genius soul created this kit deserves a raise. The "shockwave" is precisely that: a shockwave to the system, in the best way possible. YES, PLEASE. Pulling out my shoes to match as we speak.
1. Kansas City Current
Everybody else pack it up and go home. THE TEAL DOES IT FOR ME. It is PERFECTION. I cannot shout enough about this kit. Imagine the goals that will be scored in these bad boys. TREMENDOUS CONTENT. I already fear what this kit would do to my bank account. It's already COOKED just by looking at it.
