The Chicago Fire are out with a new home shirt for the 2022 MLS season, dubbed the Water Tower kit. The jersey, which is navy for the third straight season, features a subtle pattern in the fabric inspired by the iconic Chicago Water Tower.
While it isn’t red, which will certainly upset some fans, the fabric pattern and the new crest make it easily the best of the three navy shirts the Fire have worn since moving back to Soldier Field in 2020. This shirt is expected to be around for two seasons, and the Fire still intend to switch back to red shirts at home for the 2024 season.
