Greenville, SC (March 18, 2021) – The Greenville Triumph Soccer Club released its first kit with new partner hummel, debuting their 2021 secondary top Thursday afternoon in a photoshoot with Triumph players showcasing the new white shirt at iconic Greenville locations.
The white kit is anchored by a vertical tartan-patterned stripe in Triumph colors that pays homage to the stripe design on the club’s vintage 1961 Triumph TR3A car, a fixture at Triumph home matches and community appearances around the Upstate. The stripe is flanked by the hummel logo and the Triumph crest, which features the prominent gold star on top signifying the club’s 2020 USL League One title.
The kit also features logos of GTSC Signature Partners ScanSource and Bon Secours. Additionally, hummel’s trademark chevrons will adorn the sleeves. The back of the jersey gives a nod to the Upstate, featuring the Triumph’s “mountains and rivers” logo from the club’s crest.
“It’s very exciting to release our first hummel kit to our supporter base and the Upstate,” said Triumph Chief Brand Officer Doug Erwin. “Our new partnership with hummel has afforded us much more design freedom, so we were able to do some unique things for this kit. We knew we wanted to tie back to our Triumph car, which has brought so much joy to our supporters and community since its introduction in early 2019.”
The club will sell two versions of its kits this season: a replica-style top that features a thin, heat transfer Triumph crest and retails at $69.99, and an authentic top with a textured Triumph crest and USL League One patch on the left sleeve. The authentic top, which will also be worn in match play by Triumph players, will retail for $84.99. Both the authentic and replica kits are unisex. A youth replica kit will also be sold, retailing at $69.99.
All sizes and styles will be available at the Triumph team store, located on 22 S. Main St. in the heart of downtown Greenville, and via the club’s online store. The club plans to release its primary kit in the coming weeks.
Greenville’s 2021 home opener is now set, with the defending champions welcoming 2019 League One Champions North Texas SC on May 1. Single-match tickets will go on sale soon following the release of the full schedule, but fans can lock in their seats for May 1 now by calling the Triumph office at (864) 203-0565 and purchasing season tickets via a Triumph sales representative. Tickets for the May 1 home opener can also be secured by purchasing the Champions Ticket Package, which includes 2020 Champions hats and Triumph scarves.
