I mean, I agree but maybe if it had more to it such as outline of LI or NY logo in the background etc it would not feel bad, I feel like im looking at a license plate when I look at the jersey.
Absolute garbage...I just don't have the words to describe this abomination. Did we expect any better?
Yes, we expected a ton better considering the multiple fan concept ideas actually looked like someone put thought into them.
That jersey is awful. I honestly cannot even believe how bad it is. The various fakes we saw are better. This might be THE worst jersey in Isles history...and that is saying something. Embarrassing that this is what they came up with after all this time.
As annoyed as I was when it got unveiled it is slowly growing on me, that may also be the fear of missing out on new Isles merch also for a game we play in once in a bluemoon.
ISLES should be in white.
And it should be 'ISLES' that is f***ing lame
It should be the outline of Long Island.
I think the outline in white would make it pop more, add outline of long island in large with either the NY logo or Isles in smaller font would make it look much better.
Rangers and Philly way better. I don’t know what it is but I hate just 2 colors. White outlines would have been a lot better and not a fan of “isles”
Would have preferred our logo or an alternate logo.
Agreed
Ah yes, the Plimsoll Line of course
Isles staffer: How can we relate this design to fisherman, sea or boats
chatgpt: ...I got you!
This team is in hell everywhere. Bad jerseys, bad contracts, bad play
"in one of the largest chest stripes adidas has ever made for the NHL."
Like a large stripe is a groundbreaking moment in jersey design.
I laugh hard because the NHL rep said the designs were very bold and futuristic ...then the Isles alumni team hold the jerseys and say they love how old school it is haha
These were 100% created by Lane Lambert, that’s the only explanation here

I have had the day to think about it — and yeah — they are still horrifically bad! They are just about the worst jersey they have ever had.
They cannot get this right because you are kind of starting from a bad space.
I love the NYI logo because of what it stands for — and for me, the memories. I was lucky enough to watch that logo carry the Stanley Cup 4 times. So I have a love for it.
But speaking as a professional designer – its kind of terrible. So it is hard to generate something great from something not so great.
I have heard people suggesting a lighthouse as a third symbol. I gave something like that a go if you look at my avatar. Its crisp, clean and perfect as a shoulder patch. I am not sure it evokes excitement.
I think a new logo altogether for this team is a bad idea. Not with the history the franchise has connected to it. If they want to create a new mark for a third jersey — great. But whatever happens — do not let the adidas "creative" team, the nhl design team or the current NYI marketing and design teams near the project.
It looks like they wanted to incorporate a two-tone design specifically for Isles with very minimal white, I think if they reduced the size of the orange stripe had a outline of LI with the NY hockey stick logo in center it would look good, they could even of had NEW above the stripe and YORK below it etc but the design itself is very lazy to say the least.
.......With all that being said ...I will probably end up getting one!
