Celebrating Nguyen's Vietnamese heritage, the brand-new tee features "Los Angeles Football Club" written in Vietnamese across the chest, with the LAFC crest located on the left side of the shirt, above the heart.

Nguyen's shirt is the third cultural player tee that LAFC has produced since the Club's inaugural season last year. All cultural tees incorporate different language iterations of Los Angeles Football Club, and have been introduced through LAFC players and their respective languages - Arabic (Omar Gaber), Farsi (Steven Beitashour) and Vietnamese (Lee Nguyen). LAFC is the first Club in MLS to produce a Vietnamese player tee.
