The Kansas City Royals and Nike paired together to unveil the newest edition of the league’s City Connect uniforms.
The “City of Fountains” jerseys take a deep dive into Kansas City’s culture.
The KC logo on the hats and jerseys is in dark blue and depicts the letters dripping in water as if they were a fountain.
The letters and numbers are supposed to reflect the city’s art deco style, according to the team’s post.
