I personally love it and think it is such a clean looking jersey

  1. It’s not the worst one they’ve had and certainly not the best. I rank it above the first black jersey, orange jersey, stadium series and the recent alternate (stadium series knock off) but that’s about it.

  2. I like it! I have a black baseball cap with this logo on it and it’s my most worn hat by far

  3. There was a rumor at the time that they were going to push to make these the primaries with a matching white away version. Something about synergy with the Nets black and white uniforms since we shared a building at the time.

    If I look at the jersey objectively and remove the Islanders from it, it’s a fine jersey. Kind of boring but also kind of sharp.

    But I despised how it felt like we were abandoning our identity with them. No blue/orange. No primary logo. It just felt too far astray from our identity to get into them. The black/gray/blue/orange jerseys from a few years before this era are definitely much uglier, but somehow felt more like an Islanders jersey than this one.

    I don’t think anyone was sad to see these go. Hopefully we get a fisherman third in the future.

  4. Kinda like the template but not the black and white color scheme. Also loses points for its association with the very forced Brooklyn era.

  5. I’m mixed as hell. White on black was my aesthetic for *years* but goddammit I hated that we had to be in the Nets building so much. Objectively, yeah the jerseys are clean as hell but there’s so much baggage for any long term fan with em.

  6. In my opinion the 2nd worst isles jersey of all time barely better than the black word mark ones. NOT horrible just far from my personal favorite. 

    I personally feel the orange alternate from the 2000’s is criminally under used
