Nashville SC unveiled a new, all-black jersey kit over the weekend honoring the life and legacy of Johnny Cash. The new kit was developed in partnership with the country icon’s estate, Sandbox Succession, and Wasserman Music.

Look closely and you’ll spot Cash’s signature and the iconic Folsom Prison photo jocktag. The fresh fit is inspired by The Backline, one of the club’s supporter groups, and the photo of Cash they held up next to the Nashville SC logo at the team’s inaugural 2020 match. Players will wear the jerseys at the first home match on Saturday, Feb. 25 and throughout the 2023 and 2024 seasons.
