Charleston, South Carolina · March 2026

Where the
rivers meet.

A collection drawn from the waters that made the Lowcountry.

The source

Three rivers.
One harbor.
One city.

Charleston is a city made by water.

The Ashley, Cooper, and Wando do more than shape the map. They shape the club.

Charleston City FC’s 2026 Admiral collection begins where those waterways converge. The design moves past postcard imagery and into the city’s elemental truth: marsh edges, tidal channels, and a harbor that has connected Charleston to the world for centuries.

Admiral translated that geography into a kit identity built for the city’s young athletes. The waterways are not background. They are the story.

The design language

A map of the city, woven into the fabric.

Flowing contour lines trace an abstract topographic rendering of Charleston Harbor. Across white and navy foundations, teal lines curve and converge like the city’s inlets, estuaries, and tidal channels.

A second pattern sits at the shoulders. The Power of Five links points into an expanding network, turning the mathematics of connection into a visual expression of the club’s reach through players, families, coaches, schools, and the wider Lowcountry.

“The topographic map tells the story of place. The Power of Five tells the story of people.”

White and teal

A bright white base carries light teal contours across the body, paired with teal shorts. From distance it is crisp and direct. Up close, it reveals a detailed portrait of the harbor.

Navy and teal

Deep navy recalls the Cooper River at dusk. Teal topographic lines rise from the darker base, giving the away kit a distinct identity that remains unmistakably Charleston.

03 · Goalkeeper

Electric yellow.
Impossible to miss.

The goalkeeper kit gives the collection its boldest expression. An electric yellow base carries an orange halftone pattern across the body, while teal topographic lines bring Charleston’s river map onto the sleeves.

The matching shorts and socks complete a unified look for boys’ and girls’ goalkeepers. Navy numbering keeps every detail clear at distance.

One club. One city. A story carried onto the pitch.

Beyond matchday

The river map moves off the pitch.

The same Charleston identity extends through training and everyday clubwear. Navy foundations, light blue sleeves, and teal contour lines keep the collection connected without turning every piece into the same garment.

The partnership

Designed together.
Owned by the club.

Created through Admiral ID, the collection gave Charleston City FC’s leadership a live view of the design as it evolved. The team could refine the weight of the topographic lines, the density of the Power of Five network, and the balance of navy, white, light blue, and teal before production.

“Using Admiral ID, we worked side by side with the club to translate Charleston’s history and community network into a modern design that stands out on the pitch and means something off it.”
