USMNT faces jersey shortage as they advance in World Cup

Summary

The USMNT has progressed to the knockout stages of the 2026 FIFA World Cup following a 3-2 loss to Turkey, finishing top of Group D with six points. With heightened interest in official jerseys, retailers are struggling to keep stock due to low availability, particularly for the red-striped home shirt. Nike, the team's jersey supplier, has reportedly not addressed rising demand despite retailer requests for increased production.
