Four stars. Three words. Two colors. One club.
That’s all that was needed for the Chicago Fire and soccer-inspired outfitters Bumpy Pitch to tell a visual story in their latest #cf97-inspired collaboration.
It’s been three years since the Chicago Fire and Bumpy Pitch first came together in advance of the club’s momentous 15th anniversary celebration with the release of the Chicago Municipal Tee.
Now, with the Fire
marking the 18th anniversary
of its founding, the two sides have again joined forces to offer a piece of apparel whose design is at once an homage to our club’s origins as well as a subtle acknowledgement of what lies ahead.
CHICAGO’S RED AND WHITE.
Game in and game out, they’re the words that rain down from the Harlem End with passion and pride. Over the years, many a supporter and visiting player have no doubt exited Toyota Park with those words melodically imprinted in their memory, leaving an indelible mark on their matchday experience. It’s a declaration and a self-affirmation worthy of refrain.
CHICAGO’S RED AND WHITE.
And here, in the latest Bumpy Pitch effort inspired by the Men In Red, those colors are boldly emblazoned beneath the representation of our city’s history in four stars -- the second of which forever recalls the event that inspired our great club’s foundation.
CHICAGO’S RED AND WHITE.
Celebrate 18 years of our club’s proud tradition and thriving community, and look ahead to a forthcoming iteration of our club’s colors that promises to connect our past and present.
Pick up a limited edition Bumpy Pitch Tshirt ($30) at the Chicago Fire 18th Anniversary Celebration on Thursday (Oct. 8) at Toyota Park or at the Fire Fan Shop while supplies last.
