For the second time this season and for the fourth consecutive year overall, Sounders FC and Microsoft have collaborated to release a uniquely embellished jersey to be worn by the Rave Green. Seattle is wearing Mixer additions on its Heritage kits on Monday, October 8, as the team faces the visiting Houston Dynamo (7:30 p.m. PT / JOEtv, YouTube TV, 950 KJR AM, El Rey 1360 AM).
Mixer is Microsoft’s livestreaming service that brings streamers and viewers from around the world closer together by giving them the ability to easily watch, livestream and interact with some of the most entertaining games and content. The platform’s ‘Faster Than Light’ feature allows livestreams to be broadcast with less than one second of latency, meaning that Mixer’s content is broadcasted live as close to real-time as possible. You can visit Mixer.com on any web browser, or use the Mixer app on Xbox One, iOS and Android devices.
“We’re thrilled to be teaming up with Sounders FC and are proud that Sounders FC and Mixer fans are coming together in supporting their favorite teams and players,” said Jenn McCoy, Marketing Director, Mixer.

Mixer marks the second embellished jersey for Sounders FC this season. The team wore Xbox Game Pass jerseys on August 18 against the LA Galaxy – a match that Seattle won 5-0. Since the first specially embellished Microsoft gaming jersey was unveiled in 2015, Sounders FC is currently unbeaten when wearing the specialty kits in MLS play (4-0-2) and hopes to continue that trend next week.
Fans interested in having their own jerseys embellished with the Mixer mark may do so at The Pro Shop at CenturyLink Field on Monday. This special service is available only at the stadium Pro Shop location for matchday, while supplies last. The cost for embellishment is $15 per jersey and same-day turnaround is dependent on order volume.
