Major League Soccer and Adidas have announced the 2024 collection of the āMLS Archive Collection,ā paying homage to past eras of MLS teams while adding a modern twist to certain historical periods.
The worst-kept secret was Inter Miamiās third kit, which appears to be a tribute to the Miami Dolphins of the NFL, although MLS and Adidas wonāt admit that.
The other teams participating in the Archive Collection include LA Galaxy, LAFC, Portland Timbers, and Sporting Kansas City. The LA Galaxy and Sporting Kansas City kits are throwbacks to the inaugural seasons of MLS in 1996 and 1997.

The Galaxy wore their Archive kits when Nike was their uniform supplier at the leagueās inception, while Sporting Kansas City was originally known as the Wiz and later the Wizards after the 1996 season.

Inter Miamiās Archive Kit, although not explicitly branded as a Miami Dolphins kit, is described by MLS as āTapping into 1980s nostalgia, Inter Miamiās archive kit leans heavily on the vibrancy of vintage Miami style.ā
