So in fact it is the Jorge Teixeira of jerseys
"Sky" blue or whatever blue that blue is going to be called
The official name, for better or worse, is "City Blue". There is also "Amsterdam Orange". This according to the esteemed graphic designer Matthew Wolff.
Bit bummed to see this one come to fruition quite so quickly!Agreed. This is pretty sweet. Hopefully it will not prove to be the Jorge Teixeira of jerseys.
It's New York, man. Black is what we wear.Just no black kits again. I didn't like those. Makes no sense for us.

All of the apparel manufacturers (Adidas, Nike, etc) have the next season's designs (running, soccer, basketball, etc) done well over a year ahead of time (a good friend is in the running store business and they place orders well in advance of the current season). It takes so much time to get approvals/sign offs from all connected parties just to proceed to production, and then production across wherever their factories are in Asia takes time to - remember, each of these companies have multiple teams with different designs & colors that requires modifying equipment and settings. It can't be done last minute. I'd wager that the team's full supply of stock has been in the warehouse for some time now....but if he is a "former" nycfc man - maybe he doesn't know what is current. Just saying tho...
I thought it was pretty obviously a fake when you consider the MLS catalog had the dark blue shorts with light blue stripes.
To be fair, we had dark blue shorts with city blue stripes as training shorts last preseason...I thought it was pretty obviously a fake when you consider the MLS catalog had the dark blue shorts with light blue stripes.

Nets, Islanders, Jets, Mets and NYCFC all wear black. They seem pretty classy to meNo it isn't. We wear white and blue. Knicks, Rangers, Yankees, Giants. All the classy teams don't wear black.
Name me one normal person in NYC that wears Orange and Blue together when they go out of the house? NYC fashion is all about Black with shades of Grey. If the team wants to represent NYC, then Black has to be part of the ensemble - doesn't have to be an official color, but it has to be included. I'd be fine with a black dominated third jersey.....No it isn't. We wear white and blue. Knicks, Rangers, Yankees, Giants. All the classy teams don't wear black.
