The capsule collection from Port was inspired by the legacy of soccer in Los Angeles and pays homage to the roots of and growth of the sport and community we love. The collection includes a classic athletic looped terry track suit with collegiate style felt lettering applications along with a canvas stadium jacket featuring chenille patch work championship embellishments. A caricature drawing highlighting legacy players from the clubs past by artist Jeff McMillan is a stand out printed tee as an addition to the club’s “Since 96” campaign.

“We had a ton of fun digging through the archives of imagery and classic merchandise from the early days of the club, we used a lot of the inception years as inspiration on the capsule collection͟,” said Jim Leatherman, founder of Port.

The look book was shot on a Curtin Maritime barge being pushed through the Long Beach and Los Angeles shipping channels. The walled-off barge gave the feeling of an arena style field gliding through the industrial center on the Ports. The commercial and look book were shot with Galaxy players Emmanuel Boateng, Chris Pontius, Daniel Steres, Servando Carrasco, Romain Alessandrini, Jorgen Skjelvik, David Bingham and Michael Ciani.
