New UMBRO Jersey

In 2007 the Charleston Battery will wear UMBRO uniforms and UMBRO has custom-designed a new home jersey for the Battery. The 2007 home jersey incorporates the traditional Charleston Battery colors, gold & black vertical stripes with black sleeves.

The jersey features several new components designed to help the players perform better on the field. The Climate Control fabric is designed to wick moisture away from the players and also to remain as light as possible during games.
