The team unveiled its new away uniform during a ceremony Thursday at the BBVA Compass River Oak branch. The Dash also announced its "Pick the Kit" contest, which fans can participate in by casting their vote at HoustonDashSoccer.com.

The Dash unveiled their home uniform earlier this year on National Girls and Women in Sports Day, Feb. 3. The home jersey features multiple shades of orange which gradually darkens from the white shoulders down to an orange midsection. Longtime Houstonians may notice a resemblance to the Astros’ “rainbow” jerseys from the 1980s. The home kit pairs that jersey with orange shorts and socks.
Dash officials said votes will be accepted until 10 a.m. Saturday. Fans will find out which jersey the team will wear when they take the field that night, according to the Dash.
The new alternate kit features a two-tone jersey showcasing a stylish transition from the club’s traditional and instantly recognizable orange at the top to the Space City Blue alternate color above the waist. A series of inverted chevrons alternate orange and blue to make the transition between the two dominant color blocks. The shorts and socks are each Space City Blue, as is the back of the jersey. BBVA Compass, the team’s jersey sponsor, is featured with its logo across the chest on the jersey.
