The US women will have a new home kit in Brazil

The U.S. women's national team will have a new home uniform this summer at the Olympics.

The white Nike uniforms feature a red stripe down the right side of the jersey and shorts, with a blue stripe down the left side. Silver threads run through the sleeves. The uniform includes socks that fade from white to blue at the foot.

The U.S. Soccer crest is replaced with a blue "USA" to conform with Olympic regulations.

The Nike kits will be used only for the Olympics and afterward the team will go back to its usual home uniforms. There is no change to the team's away uniforms, except for the removal of the crest.

The United States is vying for its fourth straight gold medal in women's soccer.
