New York City FC has a new look for road trips across the U.S. and Canada.
The club announced on Wednesday it’s new away kit, featuring a solid gray top with blue accents. The gray is meant to call “to mind the grit and attitude synonymous with” New York City. The club had David Villa, Maxime Chanot and Ronald Matarrita walk around East Harlem with the new kit, showing off the outfit and showing hot it fits into every day life.
“I am proud to wear our new away jersey and represent New York City on the road. Most importantly, it’s a shirt I think our loyal fans will really love,” Villa said in a statement. “It was fun to do the photoshoot in East Harlem since community is so important to our Club.”

After the busy away kits for NYCFC in the past, the solid gray look with the blue accents is simple, yet can become an iconic jersey identifying the club moving forward. We at PST are fans of the new look!
