It's one of the most famous football jerseys of the 1990s, and it's getting a 21st century facelift.
USA's away jersey from the 1994 World Cup became an iconic kit and collector's item. The denim design, with the stars of the American flag made the jersey stand out during that tournament 23 years ago.
The MLS All-Stars play Real Madrid in Chicago on Wednesday night, and their kit will pay homage to the jersey made famous by Alexi Lalas and friends.

While the kit has the same starry design, some Canadian maple leafs have been added, in a nod to the three MLS sides from north of the border.
Adidas and MLS are clearly feeling nostalgic about USA '94. On Tuesday night, an MLS Developmental Side were in action against Chivas Under-20s . The goalkeeper's kit made us long for Packie Bonner to be back in the Irish goals.
