LAFC

Los Angeles Football Club didn’t appear by accident—it was built with intent. Announced in 2014 and debuting in MLS in 2018, LAFC set out to mirror the city’s pace and design language: Black & Gold, Art-Deco lines, and a home in Exposition Park at BMO Stadium. From the first whistle, the club leaned into identity as much as results—local, modern, and loud.

On the pitch, the résumé arrived fast. LAFC owns the 2022 MLS Cup, plus Supporters’ Shields in 2019 and 2022 for the league’s best regular-season record. They’ve reached continental finals and turned rivalry nights into city events—El Tráfico vs. Galaxy isn’t just a match; it’s a measuring stick. The club’s defining star is Carlos Vela: 2019 league MVP and record-setting scorer whose left foot helped establish LAFC’s attacking blueprint. Along the way, names like Gareth Bale and Giorgio Chiellini added drama and pedigree (Bale’s stoppage-time header in the 2022 final is already folklore).

The culture is as curated as the football. The 3252—LAFC’s supporters’ union—takes its name from the safe-standing end’s capacity (3,252 seats) and a numerology nod (3+2+5+2=12, el “jugador 12”). Drums, capo stands, and synchronized chants turn the north end into a metronome for the whole stadium. It’s choreographed chaos: tifos with graphic precision, noise with purpose.

Famous faces are part of the fabric, not a sideshow. Will Ferrell—a co-owner—often leads chants on the megaphone. Magic Johnson is in the ownership group, and matchdays routinely draw L.A. creatives, athletes, and musicians who treat BMO Stadium like a neighborhood venue. It feels less like a corporate suite scene and more like a shared ritual.

If you’re here for the kit, you’re in the right place. Explore home, away, and third jerseys in authentic and replica versions, with men’s, women’s, and kids’ fits. Look for the winged LA crest, Black & Gold trims, sponsor details, and performance tech built for comfort on and off the pitch. Pick your badge, your era, your fit—and make the Black & Gold part of your rotation.
