Description

This is the fully-customizable short-sleeve third kit for the USA 1995-1998 period.

The 1995 Copa América, hosted by Uruguay, was a historic tournament for the United States Men’s National Team, marking their first participation in South America’s prestigious competition. Under the guidance of head coach Steve Sampson, the USA showcased remarkable resilience and talent, making a significant impression on the international stage.

Drawn into Group C, the USA faced formidable opponents in Argentina, Chile, and Bolivia. Their campaign began on a high note with a 2-1 victory over Chile on July 8, thanks to two early goals from Eric Wynalda. Despite a late goal from Chile’s Sebastian Rozental, the USA held on to secure a vital win. This victory set a positive tone for their group stage matches.

However, their momentum was briefly halted in their next match on July 11, when they faced Bolivia. Despite a hard-fought contest, the USA fell to a 1-0 defeat, with Marco Etcheverry scoring the only goal of the match. This loss left the USA needing a strong performance in their final group stage game to advance.

On July 14, in a stunning upset, the USA defeated Argentina 3-0. Frank Klopas opened the scoring, followed by goals from Alexi Lalas and Wynalda, securing a comprehensive victory. This remarkable win over one of the tournament favorites not only boosted the team’s confidence but also ensured their progression to the knockout stages as the top team from Group C.

In the quarter-finals, the USA faced Mexico on July 17 in a tense match that ended in a 0-0 draw. The game was decided by a penalty shootout, where the USA emerged victorious 4-1, with successful penalties from Wynalda, Joe-Max Moore, Paul Caligiuri, and Klopas. This victory against a fierce rival propelled the USA into the semi-finals.

The semi-final match on July 20 against Brazil proved to be a challenging encounter. Despite a valiant effort, the USA was narrowly defeated 1-0, with Aldair scoring the decisive goal. Although the USA’s journey to the final was halted, their performance had already exceeded expectations.

In the third-place play-off on July 22, the USA faced Colombia. Despite an early penalty goal from Moore, Colombia proved too strong, winning 4-1. The USA finished the tournament in fourth place, a commendable achievement for their Copa América debut.

Notable players: Eric Wynalda, Joe-Max Moore, John Harkes, Alexi Lalas, Paul Caligiuri, Thomas Dooley, Claudio Reyna, Cobi Jones, Earnie Stewart, Frank Klopas, Tab Ramos, Marcelo Balboa, Mike Burns, Mike Sorber, Brian Bliss.

It all started when we were around 5 or 6 years old…

We would go to school in the day, and then go back home. Then, we’d be out and about for the rest of the day. We were playing football with the rest of the kids from around our home all day.

We were playing for hours, and we never stopped, even if our moms called us to get inside. We would yell “10 more minutes!”, right before spending another two hours on the field.

It didn’t matter whether it was sunny, rainy, or there was a snowstorm. We were still playing, from Spring to Winter, every single day.

And we were wearing the same jerseys you can find on our store. We are more than a jersey company…

We want to help you Relive the Memories Through Old-School Jerseys.
