Alexi Lalas: Nobody has better chance to become relevant faster than New England Revolution

BOSTON, Mass. – A fashion fail?

The explosion of red, white and blue thread sewn together as the New England Revolution’s inaugural home jersey certainly wasn’t one, according to ex-Revolution central defender Alexi Lalas, who wore the full kit in 1996.

Lalas got to reflect on that time during New York Fashion Week, when Major League Soccer’s 26 clubs debuted their 2020 season jerseys.

Things came full circle for Lalas as he walked the runway and modeled New England’s design – also known as “The Original” – which is sleek navy and features a thick streak of white across the front.
